Former Ghana international Augustine Ahinful has expressed concerns over the numerous management committees overseeing the countrys national teams, calling for their abolition.
Each national team currently operates under a designated management committee, but Ahinful believes this system is hindering the progress of Ghanaian football.
Speaking to Accra-based Happy FM, he urged authorities to implement new structures for a more efficient and accountable system.
Instead of having separate management teams for all the national teams, I think we need to move away from that approach. Its high time we established a proper structure so that, for example, when the U-20 team is playing, two or three people can be appointed to oversee it, he said.
He also pointed out how involvement in these committees often discourages members from holding the Ghana Football Association (GFA) accountable.
Its as if no one can speak up. If the FA is doing something wrong, they remain silent because they want to stay on the management team, he added.
Meanwhile, in response to Ghanas disappointing campaign in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers, the GFA has announced a new management committee.
The appointees include GFA Executive Council (EXCO) member Dr. Randy Abbey, former Black Stars captain Stephen Appiah, Medeama SC President Moses Armah, FC Samartex President Richard Nsenkyire, and Greater Accra Regional Football Association Chairman Samuel Aboabire.
