‘We’re daring you to sack CK Akonnor’ – NPP’s Titus Glover to GFA

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) kingpin said there will be consequences if the FA decides to fire Akonnor.

Akonnor has come under intense pressure following Ghana’s defeat to South Africa in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers.

The 47-year-old has a win percentage of just 40% despite taking charge of 10 matches since his appointment.

Reports circulating in the media suggest the Executive Council of the FA is considering sacking Akonnor in the coming days.

However, 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.”

The Black Stars will return to action in October to face Zimbabwe in a double-header World Cup qualifier.
