Ghana Football Association Executives visited the offices of Ebusua Dwarfs on Saturday to acquaint themselves with the club's operations.

The move is meant to strengthen the bond with the country's governing body and the clubs in the country.

This comes after Ghana FA President Kwesi Nyantakyi visited Hearts of Oak last week in the latest initiative to listen to the club's concerns while taking first-hand feedback on how to continue to improve the league.

The visit to Dwarfs is part of a new policy by the GFA boss to engage Ghanaian clubs in a bid listen to their concerns and help find solutions.

He was met on arrival by the club's administrative secretary Mr Commey, who took him round the club's headquarters in Cape Coast.

Nyantakyi and his executives were happy with the club's facilities while commending them for putting structures in place for further improvement.

He decried the violence meted out to referees by Dwarfs fans during a recent match and called on the officials to educate their fans against hooliganism.

"We are happy that Dwarfs as one of the traditional club in the country have a good office from where they operate," Nyantakyi said.

"You are leading by example as one of the traditional clubs in the country. But the recent acts of hooliganism have not helped the club's image.

"You must intensify the efforts to educate the fans so that we enjoy our matches - trusting that when things go wrong with issues like refereeing the GFA will act swiftly."

Commey apologised for the hooliganism by that nearly cost the life of referee Kyeremanteng and called for leniency when the disciplinary committee rules on the matter.

He assured the GFA that an education campaign is underway among the fans in their bid to fight against the scourge of hooliganism.

Chief supporter of Dwarfs Alhaji Ten Ten also apologised and assured the GFA of good behaviour from their fans in future matches.
