Disciplinary Committee bans Abedi
Accra, April 11, GNA – Abedi ‘Pele’ Ayew, Ghana’s Soccer
Maestro has been banned from participation in active
football for one year by the Disciplinary Committee of the
Ghana Football Association.
The decision of the Committee follows the outcome of
controversial Division One Middle League results in which
Abedi’s Nania FC beat Okwawu United 31-0 while Great
Mariners also beat Tudu Mighty Jets 29-0 in what most soccer
lovers have described in various derogatory terms.
The four affected Clubs Nania, Mighty Jets, Okwawu United
and Mariners have also been fined 50 million cedis each and
have all been demoted to the Third Division.
Information gathered by the GNA Sports from the Committee’s
sittings on Wednesday indicated that all the players and
handlers of the affected Clubs have also been banned for a
year.
It would be recalled that B.A. United, Advanced Stars,
Akwatia Diamond Stars and Great Corinthians and others in
the 70’s were given various sanctions for involving in
similar allegations of match fixing.
