The Professional Footballers Association of Ghana (PFAG) has learnt with great sorrow of the death this past weekend of Mr. Joseph Ade Coker, a respected former football administrator.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The distinguished domestic football advocate, who also made a name for himself in the country\u2019s political circles was indeed a stalwart of the Ghana Football Association where he served as a one-time Vice-Chairman of the Ghana Football Association.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Perhaps his most influential spell on the football landscape was his tenure as Chairman of Accra Great Olympics Football Club.<\/p>\n
Under his stewardship, the \u201cOly Gbogbo\u201d Club enjoyed a sustained period of stability, success and purpose with a strong focus on unearthing budding local talents and promoting integrity in the sport on the local scene.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The PFAG, as mother body for all professional footballers in the country, is truly saddened to learn of Mr. Ade Coker\u2019s untimely demise.<\/p>\n
We extend our deepest condolences to the family and loved ones of Mr. Ade Coker on behalf of all our members.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We pray for peaceful rest in heavenly glory.<\/p>\n
