TigerEye PI investigators acting as investors proposed to GFA President Nyantakyi to sponsor the Ghana Premier League. But Kwesi Nyantakyi accepting the proposal added business opportunities in Ghana which the investor could get if he paid him $11m as appearance fees.
The right hand man of Kwesi Nyantakyi named ‘Abu’, a 31year old Regional Football Association Chairman –Northern region was approached to organize a meeting with Kwesi Nyantakyi for some investors.
The meeting was held where the investors promised to sponsor the premier league with $15,000,000.
Kwesi Nyantakyi was busily trying to convince the investors that the sponsorship should come through his private company so that he will receive 15% of the amount.
Kwesi Nyantakyi has several private companies that serve as agents anytime contracts are being brought to the GFA. He does these with Abu, his right hand man. This explains why most of the contents of GFA contracts are kept confidential.
As a result of the expose, world football governing body FIFA in response has banned the FA president who also resigned barely four hours after the ban was announced.
He has been stripped of his Executive membership at the FIFA Council and his Vice-President position at Africa football governing body CAF.
