King Faisal chief executive Vincent Odotei has criticised the eight-man team put together by the Ghana Football Association to find a coach for the Black Stars.

Odotei who has declared his intentions to challenge Kwesi Nyantekyie for the position of Ghana Football Association presidential elections next year claims the composition of the eight man body which is made up of the five executive committee members of the, one executive committee member and coaches Sam Arday and Oti Akenteng is not broad enough.

The committee held their first meeting on Monday. Odotei though is unimpressed. “When one considers critically both the decision making process, as well as some of the decisions which the current FA makes, one wonders what exactly drives those decisions,” he querried.

“More often than not, the way decisions are taken and the people who take those decisions leave one to wonder whether those decisions are driven by the need for value or progress or by personal enhancement, personal benefiting, party politicking or personality cult building.”

The Faisal CEO also slammed government for their failure to involve a government representative claiming it show a lack of appreciation for the role they play in the development of the game.

The composition of the body, he claims demonstrates a continuation of the policy of an “exclusive decision making group in the FA, lack of consideration of the principles of sustainable effective decision making in the public sector, lack of appreciation of not only the role government plays in the development of the game, but also the need to repair the frosty relationship emerging between the two and disregard of the impact on the nation by continued inappropriate decision making process.”

Odotei who got no single vote in the last GFA presidency elections when he went up against Kwesi Nyantekyie is hoping he can turn the tables this time around and has not missed an opportunity to take a dig at the body.

But the GFA is highly unlikely to change the composition of the body that is looking for a long term successor to Milovan Rajevac as Ghana coach.

Odotei reckons instead of an eight-man team, there should be five-man body that will consist of the head of the GFA technical team, a member of the GFA emergency committee, head of the GFA finance committee, a successful private sector person with interest in football or a representative of the Sports writers Association of Ghana.
