Former Hearts of Oak corporates and affairs manager, Joe Addo says corruption in Ghana Football exits.

The country's football governing body have been accused of failing to get rid of corruption from football but have always maintained there is no such thing.

But the former Ghanaian defender insists corruption is real in Ghana football and it is fast killing the sport in the country.

"There is so much corruption in Ghana football. It is unfortunate but it's true and I am not the only one who knows, a lot of people know that and I think we have to do something about it so am very happy Hon. Osaafo Maafo voiced it out," Addo said on GH One TV Football Legends Night Show.

''For instance, many people don't understand what indemnity means but in actual sense it means bribery or 'ways and means', there are so many things in football and there are many that are left unsaid.

''Many Ghanaians eyes are wide opened, everybody wants to know about every single thing that happens in our football, it is not like the past, and it's killing our game.

''It's very difficult to eradicate bribery and corrupt practices, even the professional leagues in Europe find it difficult to fix them but we should find a way to fix or kill it if we are really serious about,'' he added.
