The Vice President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Mark Addo has stated that his outfit are focused on improving the Ghana Premier League despite a reported injunction filed to prevent the 2023/24 season from commencing.
Following the decision by Congress to suspend AshantiGold from all football-related activities, the Miners are said to have filed for an injunction on the start of the league scheduled for this weekend, and have written to clubs alerting them the league may not start as scheduled.
According to Mark Addo, the association are not concerned about any restraining orders, but its legal counsel are ready to argue their case in court and are rather motivated to go ahead with the 2023/24 Ghana Premier League while also focusing on the administration’s initiatives to make football better in Ghana
“The plaintiff who filed the injunction is already expelled so I don’t know on what basis or locus the injunction was being filed and on whose behalf, he told Kumasi-based Akoma FM.
“I am not too worried about it and the FA will respond to it in court accordingly. I am very happy with what we have done so far. The initiative of the President is to make the league bigger and better. We can all see the evidence of these initiatives over the last 4 years.”
“I am just focused on the path and the level we want to push Ghana football to. For these things (court injunction), everybody has the right to go to court if they feel their rights are been infringed upon but I’m not too worried about it. We remain focused on the bigger picture and Isha Allah it will be well,” he added.
The Ghana Premier League on the other hand is expected to kickstart on Friday.
