Over 1,800 sign Anas petition for Nyantakyi prosecution

Investigative Journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas has started an online petition requesting the prosecution of former Ghana Football Association (GFA) President Kwesi Nyantakyi.

Nyantakyi was captured in a secret recording by Anas allegedly demanding bribes on behalf of the President of the Republic of Ghana (USD5m); Vice President of the Republic of Ghana (USD3m); Minister for Roads & Highways (USD2m) and the Deputy Minister for Roads & Highways.

However, Anas is concerned that Nyantakyi who until 8 June 2018 was a member of the FIFA Council has not faced criminal prosecution over the abuse of his office.

“In Ghana, he (Nyantakyi) was arrested, then granted bail. Police have completed investigations into likely criminal misconduct by Mr Nyantakyi. They submitted their findings to the Attorney General last year. The Attorney General has not taken any action on the case till date,” Anas said in a statement.

“Please help us ASK the Attorney General to MOVE this case forward. Mr Nyantakyi should face criminal prosecution over some of his misconduct, which borders on criminality”.

“We are sending letters, making calls, sending social messages to all government entities that can help us MOVE this case to the next level. We are also reaching out to news media to help spread the word.

“If Nyantakyi is not prosecuted, our collective fight against corruption will be meaningless. It will also send a signal to many citizens that the law only deals with the poor, but the rich and powerful cannot be held responsible for their actions”.

Signatures Needed to Move Action on the Proven Misconduct of Kwesi Nyantakyi

Mr. Kwesi Nyantakyi, is a Ghanaian who, until 8 June 2018 was a member of the FIFA Council; a member of the FIFA Associations Committee; first Vice President of the Confederation of African Football (CAF); President of the West African Football Union (WAFU) Zone B and President of the Ghana Football Association.

Past news reports made allegations of corruption against him, but he dismissed them for lack of evidence. He at times threatened to or sued journalists in a bid to silence them. We wanted to know if there was any basis for the perception of corruption, especially after the much-publicized money claims fiasco that characterized Ghana’s participation in the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.

For three (3) months in 2017, I (together with my team at Tiger Eye) investigated (and later produced an undercover journalism documentary) in which we found that Mr. Nyantakyi breached the criminal laws of Ghana – including offences as money laundering, corruption, bribery, and fraud by false pretenses, by abusing his office. These were uncovered as hard facts, captured on audio/visual recording, electronic mail correspondence, and a memorandum of understanding drafted by Mr. Nyantakyi in his handwriting, and subsequently type-printed and signed by him.

His abuse of office was in respect to the following:

1. A fraudulent scheme in which he set up a company that would divert commissions on sponsorship deals to the Ghana Football Association.

2. In an elaborate plan to introduce my outfit to the Government of the Republic of Ghana. Mr. Nyantakyi demanded USD12m as “appearance” fee totalling USD12m to be distributed to the President of the Republic of Ghana (USD5m); Vice President of the Republic of Ghana (USD3m); Minister for Roads & Highways (USD2m); Deputy Minister for Roads & Highways (USD1m) and for himself (USD1m). These acts were in violation of his roles in FIFA, a citizen of Ghana and duties as President of the Ghana Football Association.

Based on the foregoing, we requested a full-scale investigation into the activities of Mr. Nyantakyi, especially his stewardship of the Ghana Football Association and Fountain Savings & Loans Limited. FIFA investigated, then fined and banned him from all football-related activities. In Ghana, he was arrested, then granted bail. Police have completed investigations into likely criminal misconduct by Mr. Nyantakyi. They submitted their findings to the Attorney General last year. The Attorney General has not taken any action on the case till date.

Please help us ASK the Attorney General to MOVE this case forward. Mr. Nyantakyi should face criminal prosecution over some of his misconduct, which borders on criminality.

We are sending letters, making calls, sending social messages to all government entities that can help us MOVE this case to the next level. We are also reaching out to news media to help spread the word.

If Nyantakyi is not prosecuted, our collective fight against corruption will be meaningless. It will also send a signal to many citizens that the law only deals with the poor, but the rich and powerful cannot be held responsible for their actions.

Please sign this petition, take the actions requested and share with everyone you know to MOVE this case forward.


Thank You so much for your assistance in this URGENT matter.

The petition had more than 1,800 of the desired 3,200 signatures as of Tuesday morning.

There are many creditors who aim to have all charges and liens repaid by the following buyer.

From there, a listing follows. Thanks a lot

  30. Thanks for your concepts. One thing we have noticed is the fact banks and financial institutions know the dimensions and spending routines of consumers and as well understand that most people max out their own credit cards around the breaks. They correctly take advantage of this fact and then start flooding your current inbox and also snail-mail box along with hundreds of no interest APR credit card offers soon after the holiday season closes. Knowing that when you are like 98 of all American open public, you’ll rush at the one opportunity to consolidate personal credit card debt and transfer balances to 0 interest rates credit cards.
