Ghana is set to host an International Taekwando Championship which runs from the Friday the 18th August 2017 to the Saturday of 19th of August, 2017.

In the wake of this there has been some turbulence in the Taekwando Fraternity due to the national Taekwando Federation not approving newly elected Greater Accra Regional Taekwando executive members.

The Ghana Olympic Committee (GOC) President Ben Nunoo Mensah about a week ago publicly made a statement where he indicated the National Federation were the only recognized body for Taekwando globally.

He did go on to say that the “proclaimed” Regional Federation should thereby submit to themselves under the National Federation as one body for progress to prevail in the sport.

The Greater Accra Regional Taekwando Chairman Norbert Kwame Amefu spoke to Kwese Sports in response to the proclamation made by the GOC boss.

He said “The comments he made does not make him a leader that he is supposed to be. You don’t take a side as a leader. He does not know anything on what is going and he has just taking one side.”

“There are issues that he should have asked questions before going out there to speak outrageously”.

Amefu also went on to speak about his encounter with Nunoo Mensah on the issue.

“I did meet him at Royale Fiesta Hotel and he did tell me that he had heard of a situation concerning regional election.  I did confirm and I explained to him that after the election three people came to the region with the National Federation President to talk about it. He did tell me that since the National President holds his portfolio as such we should just obey him accordingly.”
