Ex-Kotoko forward Michael Osei urges critics to stop agenda and rally behind Kurt Okraku’s administration

Former Asante Kotoko forward, Michael Osei affectionately known as Ember Power has pleaded to all stakeholders of the Ghana Football Association to support the current administration headed by Kurt Okraku to succeed.

Kurt Okraku succeeded Kwesi Nyantakyi as president of the football governing body in October 2019.

The former Dreams FC Chief Executive Officer has been in office for barely ten months, but has been heavily criticised by the public.

However, Michael Osei has called on the football fraternity to come together to help Kurt Okraku to continue from his predecessors.

“Others have come and done their best. The likes of Alhaji Jawula and Nana Brew Butler have all headed the association before. They did their best, ” he told Kumasi-based Hello FM.

“We should all support the current President to do the work in order to succeed. We all supported Mr. Kwesi Nysntakyi to succeed and through that we went to three World Cup tournaments.

“For me, no one should try and bring the current president down or do everything to see him fail because he is not from his camp. It would delay our progress in the game.

“You want the current president to fail, but you would wished that someone from your camp succeed when he gets the opportunity to lead. It doesn’t work that way. Your candidate too will fail.

“I will implore all to support the current administration to succeed. They are doing the work for the whole country. All those who supported Nyantakyi should rally behind the current president too.

“Here after elections, they all come together. You don’t see any camps. It’s all about the country.

“The unnecessary politics should come to an end. It will not help our football. They should support Kurt Okraku to succeed.
