Kofi Manu and Randy Abbey have stepped down from a 7-man committee formed to review Normalisation Committee Statute proposals.

On Tuesday, club administrators formed the 7-man committee to discuss ways of aligning the NC’s proposals to that of FIFA.

The committee set up by the clubs has Ntow Fianko, Kofi Manu, Randy Abbey, Madam Habiba Atta, Frederick Acheampong and Ameenu Shardow as members.

However, following a GHALCA meeting on Thursday,  Kudjoe Fianoo chairman of association has confirmed that two personalities have quit the committee citing personal reasons.

"Kofi Manu and Randy Abbey have stepped down from the committee, so there was the need for us to replace them. We have replaced them with three people who are Alhaji Akambi, Oluboi Commodore and lawyer Kwaku Eyiah to add the number to eight."

"They have been given up to next week Tuesday to review the statues and then we would deliberate on it to take our position before going to Congress on September 5."

Amidaus Prez. questions Kofi Manu's integrity on 7 member committee

Baba Gado, President of Division One League Club Amidaus Professionals had earlier questioned the integrity of Kofi Manu known in football circles as 'Blue Boy' following his appointment on a 7 member committee.

The committee set up by the clubs has Ntow Fianko, Kofi Manu, Randy Abbey, Madam Habiba Atta, Frederick Acheampong and Ameenu Shardow as members.

They have a one-week working period to finish their work after which, discussions with the NC are likely to follow on the way forward.

However, Baba Gado is upset with club administrators for adding Kofi Manu to the list as he believes there are question marks around him due to being caught on tape taking bribe in the airing of the 'Number 12' documentary by Anas Aremeyaw Anas.

"I'm disappointed in the football people who appointed Kofi Manu as part of the 7 member committee," he told Asempa FM.

"The man was caught on tape taking bribe and he hasn't been cleared so why do you go ahead and give him another position."
