GFF statutes review a power grab pretending to reform – Figueira

Jermaine Figueira

Jermaine Figueira, Shadow Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport, has lambasted the Guyana Football Federation (GFF)’s Statutes Review Process, labelling the recently concluded procedure as nothing more than a power grab under the pretence of reform.

He made the argument during an exclusive interview with Stabroek Sport yesterday. According to Figueira, who is a former executive member of the Upper Demerara Football Association, the draft constitution which was submitted to the members by the GFF following the conclusion of the review process, is tailored to neuter the congress.
