The governing body of world football on Friday announced a 90-day suspension on the president of the Ghana Football Association, who has been at the centre of corruption claims.
FIFA said its ethics committee had "provisionally banned" Kwesi Nyantakyi from "all football activities at both national and international level" with immediate effect. The suspension is pending an investigation into whether he had broken FIFA's code of ethics, it added in a statement.
Nyantakyi was this week accused in an undercover documentary of requesting $11 million from reporters posing as investors to secure government contracts. He also allegedly tried to profit personally from a $5 million-a-year, five-year sponsorship deal with the GFA.
