Normalisation Committee chairman Dr Kofi Amoah has described as hoaxes reports that the four-man body has written to FIFA for an extension.

Their mandate ends on 31 March and multiple media reports claim they have sought for an extension.

''We have not sought any extension from Fifa, Fifa has not informed me or any of the NC members of any extension,'' Dr Amoah said on Joy FM's Sports Link programme.

''We are doing our job till the end of March 2019. All these rumours and people posting articles on Facebook are hoaxes.

“I think the media people must also know how to check facts. Go to the Fifa website and get the veracity so that you can educate and inform the public.''
