The Ghana Football Association has rescinded the decision to hold its 26th Congress virtually after the Ghana President HE Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo lifted the ban on holding conferences, award ceremonies, workshops amongst others.

About a fortnight ago, the Ghana FA notified its members of the association of its intention to hold the congress via videoconferencing going by a directive of the Registrar of Companies.

"Kindly be informed that pursuant to Bulletin No 1 of 2020 of the Registrar general’s Department, the congress shall be held through video conferencing as directed by the Registrar of companies [under section 378[2] of the companies Act 2019 [Act 992] due to the ban on Public gathering [current limit is 100 persons whiles congress membership alone is 122, executive Council is 12, staff and media," the statement read.

According to a report by Oyerepa FM in Kumasi, the Ghana FA Executive Council met on Monday to review the decision and will now hold a face-to-face Congress at the Ghanaman Soccer Centre of Excellence in Prampram 27 August 2020.
