Ebo Appiah: Palmer is strong and not worried about the CAS verdict

The spokesperson for Wilfred Osei Kwaku Palmer, Mr Ebo Appiah has revealed that Wilfred Osei Kwaku Palmer is calm and strong despite losing his suit against the Ghana Football Association on Wednesday.

Palmer was contesting his disqualification from the 2019 GFA Presidential election but according to the ruling by the Court of Arbitration for Sports, the Electoral Committee’s decision is valid.

He was dismissed for failing to pay the mandatory 10% to the association after he transferred Joseph Paintsil to Belgium giants Genk.

Ebo Appiah insists Osei Palmer is not down and is ready to support the current administration to succeed.

“It is time for us to move on and support the current administration.” He told Kumasi-based FOX FM.

He also indicated that sports is about to win or lose, hence they accept the verdict in good faith.

“Palmer is a pillar in Ghana Football. There are more important things Palmer can do to develop Ghana football, the Ghana Football Association Presidency is just one of them.”

The ruling from the CAS means that Kurt Okraku will remain as the GFA president till his tenure ends in 2023.
