Former GFA boss, Kwasi Nyantakyi has officially been banned from all football activities for life.
The former CAF Vice President and FIFA Executive member was banned after he appeared in Anas’ Number 12 documentary that unearthed corruption in Ghana football.
Though Nyantakyi did not collect any bribe in the documentary, he was seen in the video using his position to make deals that are against the codes and ethics of football governing body, FIFA.
Nyantakyi has also been fined CHF 500, 000 (¢ 2, 414, 275. 20).
A statement on FIFA’s website read:
The adjudicatory chamber of the independent Ethics Committee has banned Mr Kwesi Nyantakyi, former President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), for life from all football-related activities (administrative, sports or any other) at both national and international level.
The adjudicatory chamber found Mr Nyantakyi guilty of having violated art. 19 (Conflicts of interest), art. 21 (Bribery and corruption) and art. 22 (Commission) of the FIFA Code of Ethics, 2012 edition.
