Editor-in-Chief of the New Crusading Guide, Abdul Malik Kweku Baako, contends that the calls for dissolving the Ghana Football Association (GFA) following Ghana's disappointing performance in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations are misguided.

Baako expressed this viewpoint during a panel discussion on Peace FM's Kokrokoo program through a text message, stating that the dissolution of the GFA is "wrongheaded."

There has been widespread demand for the government to take action against the GFA by disbanding the association and implementing measures for a complete overhaul of Ghanaian football.

Advocates of this proposal argue that the Black Stars' dismal performance in Ivory Coast is indicative of the severe deterioration of Ghanaian football and necessitates more radical interventions.

These proponents reject the idea that Chris Hughton was solely responsible for the Black Stars' poor showing and insist on a shake-up at the FA.

The Black Stars exited the tournament without a win, managing two draws and suffering a defeat in Group B. Their group-stage elimination from AFCON 2023 mirrors a similar fate in the 2021 edition.

Following the disastrous performance in Ivory Coast, the Ghana Football Association dismissed Chris Hughton, and a five-member committee was subsequently announced to search for the new Black Stars coach.

On January 25, 2024, the GFA unveiled the roadmap for appointing a new coach, with Vice President Mark Addo leading the search committee.

Legal practitioner and law lecturer Ace Ankomah (Esq.) will serve as Vice Chairman, joined by Professor Joseph Kwame Mintah, Opoku Nti, and William Caesar Kartey as committee members.
