“The Normalisation Committee has worked on draft statutes for the Ghana Football Association. An election would be depended on it. If Congress fails to adopt the draft statutes or make several amendments to it FIFA is likely to kick against it and elections will not be scheduled until further notice,” Luka Nikola said.
