Kurt Okraku Took Out My Passport from the U23 Squad That Traveled to Japan – Najeeb Yakubu Alleges


Ghanaian footballer Najeeb Yakubu has made shocking allegations against Kurt Okraku, the President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), claiming that Okraku removed his passport from the U23 squad that was scheduled to travel to Japan. The incident has sparked controversy and raised questions about the selection process for national teams in Ghana.

Yakubu, a key player in the local football scene, revealed the claim in a recent interview, stating that he had been part of the squad selected for the U23 team’s trip to Japan for an international competition. However, according to Yakubu, his passport was mysteriously taken out of the group’s travel documents by Okraku, leading to his exclusion from the team at the last minute. The player expressed his disappointment and frustration, claiming that he had been fully prepared and eager to represent his country.


The allegations have caused an uproar among fans and analysts, many of whom are questioning the transparency and fairness of the team selection process. Yakubu’s claims have also raised concerns about the role of the GFA president in player selection, with some speculating that there might have been external influences or internal politics at play in the decision-making process.

The U23 squad’s trip to Japan was seen as an important opportunity for young Ghanaian footballers to gain international experience and showcase their talents on a global stage. Yakubu’s absence from the squad, especially given his readiness and previous involvement with the team, has left many supporters wondering whether the incident was a case of personal or professional bias.


As of now, the Ghana Football Association has not publicly responded to Yakubu’s allegations. The matter is likely to attract further attention from football authorities, fans, and pundits as the national team’s activities continue to unfold. The incident serves as a reminder of the complexities surrounding player selection and the potential impact it can have on athletes’ careers.
