Candidates who have filed to contest various positions at the Ghana League Clubs Association (GHALCA) will undergo a vetting process on Wednesday, GHANAsoccernet.com can confirm.

The election panel of the club's umbrella body has confirmed that incumbent Kudjoe Fianoo and challenger Isaac Koomson will be vetted to become formal candidates after the close of nominations.

Fianoo, who is the overwhelming favourite to clock his second term, is being challenged by policeman Isaac Koomson.

Koomson - a former GHALCA vice-chairman lost to Mr Fianoo in the last election four years ago who is still popular within the football circles.

Many had anticipated that he would contest unopposed before Koomson threw himself into the race.

Vice-chairman Alex Ackumey is surprisingly being challenged by Ebusua Dwarfs John Ansah - who is gunning for another seat on the GHALCA council after spending eight solid years as a Premier League representative.

Ansah has completed his two-term mandate but shockingly keen to remain on the council for another four years to complete an astonishing 12-year period- a move which has been heavily criticized.

Its' widely believed he has the full backing of Ghana FA boss Kurt Okraku to unseat Alex Ackumey which could further polarized the football space.
