Nyantakyi was met by journalists at the Kotoka International Airport on Tuesday after he led a FIFA delegation to mediate between the feuding factions in that country.
The background is that the Kenya Football Federation (KFF) and Kenya Premier League (KPL) have been embroiled in a turf for that has inhibited the growth of football in the country with their regular top flight suspended.
To exacerbate the problem, both the KFF and KPL were poised to run different league competitions at the same time over because they disagreed on expanding the number of teams from 16 to 18. “I think I have done well and the case speaks for itself,” the FA boss reflected when Joy Sports asked him what the feat meant to his election chances.
He also said ahead of the GFA General Elections coming up later this year, delegates with their ears on the ground would know he would be the best choice.
“And so, discerning minds will definitely be influenced in deciding who to vote for when Kwesi Nyantakyi is a candidate in the next FA elections."
He went on: "It is true a prophet is not accepted in his own land, but those who will be honest know what my competence and contribution to African football has been.”
