Wa African United: We are happy to suffer demotion alongside Techiman City

Wa African United are happy with the decision of the Ghana Football Association to demote them and Techiman City to the third tier of Ghana football -- Division two.

Wa African United reported Techiman City to the GFA for alleged match-fixing to influence their match day 22 result last season.

According to the Ethics Committee, Wa African United reported the agreement they had with Techiman City because the Techiman-based club filed a protest against their club and they  were fined GH¢3,000 and suffered six points deduction.

They were unhappy Techiman City who initiated the act were going to compete in the premier league, but now, they are okay with the decision.

"I am not surprised with the final decision from the Ethics Committee. In fact the first ruling (to grant Techiman City stay of execution) surprised me," Chief Executive Officer, Nana Gyamerah Kwabena Yiakwan II told Joy FM.

"But when we appeared before the Ethics Committee,  per the evidence we presented, we were not expecting anything different from the earlier ruling.

"In the rule of football, the receiver and the giver are all guilty and must face the same consequences. We accept the ruling of the Ethics Committee in good faith." He added.

Techiman City ended the GN Bank Division One League last season with 63 points from 28 matches.
