Former Ghana Premier League Board chairman Welbeck Abra-Appiah says he only dropped his working of the premier league and not football.
Welbeck Abra-Appiah announced his decision to resign from the office of the Ghana Premier League Board after a decade of service to the country’s flagship club football.
According to Welbeck Abra-Appiah, he stepped aside to give the younger generation the opportunity to continue from where he left off, and to have time for his private business, family, as well as concentrate more on serving his creator.
But in less than a month after he honorably relinquished his position, the former financier and administrator of Okwawu United, has been named a member of the Black Stars management committee, and a member of the Ghana Football Association Match Review Committee by the Executive Committee of the GFA, which is contrary to what he told Ghanaians.
However, Abra-Appiah explained that he that he is yet to quit from football management.
“I haven’t retired from football administration, my announcement was that, I am dropping my working tools as chairman of the Premier League Board.
“I am not out football entirely,” Abra-Appiah, the longest-serving chairman of the Premier League Board told Accra-based radio station, Happy FM.
Abra-Appiah who was made chairman of the PLB by Kwesi Nyantakyi in 2005, has been questioned for resigning from his position as PLB boss, but has been linked to other portfolios at the FA.
Welbeck Abra-Appiah said he is yet to receive official communication from the FA, but reiterated that he has been misinterpreted.
“My resignation has been wrongly interpreted… and people who have misunderstood my position abuse me for nothing. I never said I am out football entirely.” He said.
