Ghana FA Boss Kwesi Nyantakyi Defends Ex-Gratia For Ex Co Members

Ghana FA president Kwesi Nyantakyi has defended the proposed 10,000 Ghana cedis ex-gratia for out-going members of the Executive committee of the federation. Congress, the highest decision body of federation, will take a final decision on the amount in August. The motion which was moved by Acting CEO of Aduana Stars Kofi Manu at an extra-ordinary congress two weeks has been met with harsh criticisms. But Nyantakyi, a Caf Executive Committe member, agrees the 21-man body deserves the end of service payment. He told Citi Sports: �It�s a voluntary work and they don�t get paid for what they do and therefore if a little amount to serve as a mark of appreciation shouldn�t call for any furore.� �Congress which is the highest decision body has the authority to take the final decision on the issue. The members of the Executive committee make a lot of sacrifices and nobody talks about it and what they have done.� �They only get sitting allowances and so I think we should make them happy.�
