An Accra High Court has dismissed a court case brought before it by Alhaji Asuma Banda against the Ghana Football Association on the participation of Kintampo United in the division one sub-middle league.
The shipping magnate filed case at the High Court last year appealing against an Accra Circuit court’s decision to quash the case brought before it in respect of Kintampo United.
B.A. United protested last year against Kintampo United for fielding an unqualified player in a Division One goalless drawn game in Sunyani.
After the disciplinary Committee of the GFA ruled against B.A. United, the Appeals Committee later overturned the decision.
The action by the Appeals Committee necessitated Alhaji Asuma Banda, a resident of Kintampo, to contest the case in court.
The court has also ordered Alhaji Asuma Banda to pay 3million cedis to GFA in damages.
Meanwhile, Alhaji Banda has decided not to appeal against the decision since he deems the interest of the country as higher than that of Kintampo United.
The National Middle league is expected commence on Saturday.
