Former Ghana Football Association (GFA) Chairman Lepowura MND Jawula has been appointed as Chairman of the new Ghana Premier League Management Committee.
His appointment was confirmed on Monday afternoon by the GFA. The seven-member committee also has marketing consultant Jesse Agyapong as Vice Chairman.
The GFA has discarded the system which all Premier League clubs were represented on the Premier League Management Committee (formerly called Premier League Board).
Under the new system, the Executive Council will nominate two representatives, who will be the Chairman and Vice Chairman respectively, and the eighteen Premier League clubs will nominate the remaining five members of the Premier League Management Committee.
Lepowura M.N.D. Jawula and Jesse Agyapong are the two representatives of the GFA named by the Executive Council and the remaining five representatives will be nominated by the Premier League Clubs.
The League Management Committee will serve a one-year term, and the GFA will engage Premier League Clubs towards an autonomous league.
The 2019/20 league season will start in December.
