President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo is said to have reported the conduct of the President of the Ghana Football Association, Kwesi Nyantakyi to the police following the latest expose by ace investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas, Peacefmonline can confirm.
Kwasi Nyantakyi is believed to be engaged in some fraudulent activity using the name of the President.
Deputy Chief of Staff, Samuel Abu Jinapor in an interview with Dan Kweku Yeboah on Peace FM confirmed the story saying the President tasked the security agencies to investigate the GFA capo after having watched portions of Anas Aremeyaw Anas's latest expose titled: "Number 12: When Misconduct And Greed Become The Worm".
"The footage indicated that Kwesi Nyantakyi used the name of the President to defraud some people; constituting defrauding by false pretenses..." he indicated.
According to Abu Jinapor, after the President finished watching the video he could not help but direct the Criminals Investigative Department (CID) to issue an arrest warrant for Kwesi Nyantakyi.
"...he ordered the CID to arrest him to assist in investigation and then the next step will be taken. The president is the custodian of the law and he’s not biased. No matter who you are, once you are wrong, he will hand you over to the law. He has demonstrated that his determination to fight corruption and crime is unquestionable" he noted.
Mr Jinapor was asked if the President is on the right course since the GFA is deemed autonomous. In response he said: "GFA is not an island when it comes to the criminal laws of Ghana and so an action can be taken and that is what has been done. Nobody will be allowed to go scot free if found guilty"
Meanwhile unconfirmed reports indicate that the amount involved in the alleged fraudulent act is $8m: $5m is supposed to be for President Akufo-Addo and $3m for Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.

Mr PREZ. act on the DOUBLE SALARY NDC mps too.We will stage demo if they are not PROSECUTED.Including the BRAZIL 2014 scandal.
Some NDC guys have small minds to make good analysis.If anyone must be jailed i beg the president to start from BRAZIL,2014.After watching the video i realize it was a LOOSE TALK from the F.A PRESIDENT and must APOLOGIZE to Ghanaians to save his credibility.
NDC government was not giving you free range to operate, they wanted you to do the right thing always. Your government the NPP was giving you free range and see how they've exposed you big time. I will advice NPP guys to take their time because anything bad this guy says about this government will bring it down completely.
Countryman songo on my mind
they should be prosecuted if found to be involved in fraudulent activity as sepp blatter and platini were prosecuted. no one is above the law.
I dont know why persons in football in ghana are so greedy and corrupt. Kwesi Nyantakyi and his gurus should be banned from football administration for life. The man is too corrupt. Nii Lamptey come for your stone. Country man Song come for your big stone. The government must shut down the GFA now, they are ***barred word*** entity.
Thanks be to God for the cartel is on its knees as the President has ordered the arrest of the GFA president.
For LACK OF KNOWLEDGE MY PEOPLE PERISH and maybe go search the meaning of allege or allegation in dictionary before spewing garbage on public platform. (al·leged əˈlejd/Submit adjective (of an incident or a person) said, without proof, to have taken place or to have a specified illegal or undesirable quality. "the alleged conspirators)
the notion that GFA is autonomous is very stuppppiddddd one being held by eddddiots in Ghana. GFA is NOT autonomous. The members of GFA are Ghanaian citizens who have to ABIDE BY THE LAWS of Ghana. Poor journalism and massive ignorance has made Ghanaians very dummmmb
