THE WORLD football governing body, FIFA, has cleared the former President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Kwesi Nyantakyi, of any acts of corruption during his tenure.
That was after FIFA conducted a forensic audit into the activities of GFA following investigative journalist, Anas Aremeyaw Anas documentary in June 2018 which exposed alleged corrupt activities in the GFA, particularly on the part of Mr. Nyantakyi.
Mr. Nyantakyi lost his job as a result of the exposé which implicated him.
Reports gathered by DGN Online indicate that the audit conducted by FIFA’s forensic unit six months ago also cleared members of the Executive Committee of the GFA of any acts of malfeasance.
The FIFA auditing officials reportedly spent about one month in Ghana probibg the financial affairs of the Association, and discovered that neither corruption nor embezzlement took place at the GFA.
According to the audit report, the GFA only has ‘perception issues’ to deal with since media reports of corruption within the Association are ‘wide off the mark.’
DGN Online understands that the audit report has been made available to the Normalisation Committee of the GFA for about two months now.
It is however unclear the Committee has released the report to the public.
Meanwhile, it has emerged that Haruna iddrisu is on the verge of purchasing Wa All Stars, formally owned by Kwesi Nyantakyi, former GFA president.

GM In a much as Kwasi Nyantakyi was a bit pompous and seemed untouchable, I find the accusations against him very interesting and untenable. He was seen on camera collecting money while someone dictated to the viewers what was happening. Can you imagine if the narrative is changed and made it seem like he was being given the money to facilitate a project or something without mentioning corruption. Secondly whatever crime they said he had committed had nothing to do with the GFA or.football. It had to do with something entirely different for which he can be investigated for but NO, the perception that GFA is corrupt fueled his crucifixion. This selective and biased name and shame agenda must be watched closely if not one day it would be any of us. I am a doctor and sometimes patient in appreciation of the care given to them give me chicken, yam, plantain and occasionally money. Can you imagine someone giving me this and asking me if I can talk to someone for him and then I am labelled as corrupt. Let corruption be proved in the court and not the media space. ANAS , I know you are on agenda to destroy corruption or perceived corruption but please get enough evidence that can convict someone in the law court and not the court of public opinion. Anyway time will tell and truth cannot hide itself. I pray that we get better and root out corruption by systemic changes and change in mindset. Ghana's resources will not finish and so those who hord and are greedy should relax, their children will not beg for bread. Work hard, think hard and you will get the riches. But let those who look down on the rich or perceived rich and hate them be careful, sooner or later you will be rich and the same will be done to you. Thank you
Kwasi Nyatakyi, your achievement is unmatched. You did so great fro Ghana Football during your tenure and we are proud of you. i still see you as the President of FIFA in the near future. God bless you and curse your enemies
Anas was hired by those who call themselves coffee shop mafia john mahama included snd Randy Abbey. They suspected Kwasi Nyantakyi of funding the NPP when in opposition hence their denigration and black mailing through Anas. Why didn't Anas show those appointees of the ndc during John mahama's time who were perceived to be extremely corrupt? and he thought he could help the ndc by back mailing this government and as I say always the NPP is a sophisticated party and they will read your intentions before you come near and out I'd desperation Anas killed Ahmed to cover his shame! Shame on Anas hand his Coffee Shop mafia led by John seconded by Randy Abbey! jealousy and hate made them do that but they will suffer for that.
This news isn’t true and Peacefmonline should take it down immediately. This desperate attempt to make Anas an evil person should stop. It is either you have the evidence against him or you ***barred word***! Every serious mind will first go check Fifa’s Official website. There is no such story. The last story on nyantekyi on there is about his ban
When NPP was praising Anas and wishing to even use his method to fight corruption, no puppy opened it month to talk down Anas method. Now that this same method is used against your leaders. Now Anas method is demonic and satanic. God is watching all of us. Hypocriteeeeeeee
remember this forensic auditing was a fall out from Anas bogus investigation. Anas said he heard of various corruption at the GFA and so he did the entrapment to verify. this report shows that Ana's work was shameful and borne out of hatred. this is why we keep on saying Anas method should not be tolerated in Ghana.
I agree Anas work is different from the Audit, but do not understand why we are quick to accept the entrapment other than real investigations. Anas work in not natural, and can happen to anyone. I still don't understand why we think entrapment is the best weapon to fight corruption. Even Eve, who lived under the direct supervision of the creator was victim of entrapment. Lol
Hmm. asem beba dabi.
@ funny, that is why there is an appeal against nyantakyi's suspension. You are the one to reason well. You have to get rid of your illogical thinking and rather apply logical reasoning to issues. Which court in Ghana cleared anas before he showed nyantakyi's videos? Where is the natural justice here? Was nyantakyi's face hidden in the video?The man's life was in danger, he was put into public ridicule,his family got traumatized but the moment ken agyapong revealed the face of suale who takes instructions from anas to lure people, that one ken is the devil right? Why does anas want only his ways to be accepted in Ghana? Is he more Ghanaian than others? Let's reason well as Ghanaians and call a spade a spade and not a spoon
So, what do we do with the Judges? Some of them have children whose future have been maligned forever. Let's check theirs too as the dominoes have started crumbling down. Any unedited tapes in their cases?
