The former President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) Kwesi Nyantakyi and the former Northern Regional Representative of the GFA, Abdulai Alhassan, have been charged with fraud and corruption over their involvement in the Anas Aremeyaw Anas Number 12 Exposé.
The former FA president pleaded not guilty and has been granted bail in the sum of GHC1 million.
The embattled former FA chief was charged with “defrauding under false pretences” on orders of President Nana Akufo-Addo after allegedly being captured in a video documentary using names of high-ranking government officials to defraud foreign investors.
Produced by renowned Ghanaian investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas, the documentary led to the resignation of the former FA Boss and his lifetime ban by FIFA.
At the time of his ban by FIFA, Nyantakyi was the first vice-president of CAF, Wafu president and member of FIFA Executive Council.
