“CK Akonnor should respect himself and resign from the job than to be sacked,” he told Happy FM, as quoted by Ghanasoccernet.
“The GFA will not compromise with CK and vice versa. When we appointed CK Akonnor I said he can’t do the job but an expatriate coach should be appointed.”
Meanwhile, former MP for Tema East, Nii Kwartey Titus Glover has warned the Ghana Football Association (GFA) against sacking Akonnor.
The New Patriotic Party (NPP) kingpin insists there will be consequences if the FA decides to fire the Black Stars coach.
Mr. Titus Glover has warned that the FA risks a showdown with the government if such a decision is taken.
"I have heard that the GFA will hold a meeting tomorrow (today) and they want to sack CK Akonnor. We are daring them," the ex-deputy Transport Minister told Oman FM.
"Kurt, we are daring you! We are daring him. The future of the Black Stars is linked to the NPP. We want the Black Stars to progress.
"Those of you imposing players on him (CK Akonnor), those who are not allowing time and space to do his work should stop immediately.”
