Ghana Football Association (GFA) Executive Council member Gifty Oware-Mensah is currently in Morocco with the Black Queens despite reports that the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) is seeking to question her, according to GhanaWeb.
Oware-Mensah, who chairs the Black Queens Management Committee, is with the team on their training tour and is expected to return to Ghana once the tour concludes.
Sources close to her indicate that she is prepared to cooperate with any accountability process, maintaining that she executed her duties as a former Deputy Director of the National Service Authority (NSA) with integrity.
Under new head coach Kim Lars Bjorkegren, the Black Queens played their first match on Friday, February 21, 2025, losing 1-0 to Morocco’s Atlas Lionesses.
They will wrap up their tour with a game against Raja Club Athletic Women on Monday, February 24, 2025.
There were earlier claims that the GFA was planning emergency elections due to Oware-Mensah’s alleged absence, but the association dismissed the reports, stating that she remains an active Executive Council member and continues to attend meetings.
GhanaWeb reports that the NIB wants to question Oware-Mensah as part of investigations into alleged payroll fraud at the NSA.
In addition to her GFA role, Oware-Mensah is the co-owner of Berry Ladies Football Club and Vice President of Berekum Chelsea.
