Kurt Okraku files nomination for CAF Executive Committee position

President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Kurt Okraku, has officially filed his nomination to contest for a position on the CAF Executive Committee in the upcoming elections scheduled for March 2025, JoySports can confirm.

Mr Okraku will run unopposed for the seat, representing WAFU Zone B.

Sources indicate that Djibril Hamidou, President of the Niger Football Association and the current WAFU Zone B representative on the CAF Executive Committee, is vying for a position on the FIFA Council instead.

This development follows an agreement reached in March 2021 when Mr Okraku withdrew his bid for the CAF Executive Committee position.

At the time, he reportedly agreed to allow Mr Hamidou to continue as the WAFU Zone B representative on the ExCo while Okraku assumed the presidency of WAFU Zone B.

Similarly, the bloc is also fully supporting Mr Hamidou’s bid for the FIFA Council position.
