Ghana FA elections to go as planned as CAS rejects Palmers injunction request

GFA problems can only be fixed by ‘football people’- Osei Palmer

The Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS) has rejected the application for provisional and conservatory measures filed by Wilfred Kwaku Osei to place an injunction on Friday’s Ghana Football Association (GFA) elections.

Palmer as popularly known was seeking for an injunction to be put on the upcoming elections until he was reinstated to contest for the vacant top job at the GFA.

He was disqualified in the presidential race for breaches of Article 33(5) (c) of the GFA General Regulations and Decision of the Ethics Committee dated the 13th December 2017.”

In a letter sighted by Happyghana.com dated 25 October, 2019, the president of the Appeals Division of the Court of Arbitration for Sports ruled that,

“ The application for provisional and conservatory measures filed by Wilfred Kwaku Osei on 14 October 2019 in the matter of CAS 2019/A/6517 Wilfred Kwaku Osei vs Ghana Football Association is rejected.

“The costs of this Order shall be determined in the final award or any final disposition of this arbitration”.

The GFA will go ahead with its 25 October, 2019 Extraordinary Congress (Elective) as scheduled.
