DISSOLUTION OF BOARD OF DIRECTORS ( B/A UNITED FC)



Due to recent developments in the club, in my capacity as the Life Patron of B/A United FC, I hereby dissolve the Board of Directors of the Club.

This decision has come about as the result of the following;



    1. That the Board of Directors have deviated and arrogated to themselves power that were not conferred on them. The Board was formed primarily to source funds, monitor the funds so sourced and advise the Management. The Board therefore, cannot dissolve the management of the Club without reference to me, the Life Patron of the Club who appointed it. At best, they could have recommended the dissolution of the Management to me.

    2. That no minutes of the Board have been communicated to me for my consideration.

    3. That my investigations have revealed that only few members of the Board of 18 took the decision to dissolve the current Management. The point is , the number did not constitute a quorum to take important and decisive decision for the club.

    4. That in their deliberations, culminating in the dismissal of the current management, the Board did not invite the Executive Chairman of the Club who is an automatic member of the Board to their meetings.

    5. That some of those who have been appointed to form the Interim Management Committee are part of the Board and the so called “Concerned” Supporters who have been calling or agitating for the removal of the Executive Chairman. This constitutes conflict of interest and brings to the fore hidden motive which should not be tolerated.



Consequently no member(s) of the Board can conduct business on behalf of the Club.

For peace and progress to prevail, the current Chairman, in the person of Mr. Kingsley Osei-Bonsu , affectionately dubbed “Lord Zico” and his management team have been given two more years to continue their marvellous work.

At the appropriate time, a new Board may be appointed to support the current management.
