VIDEO: Ghana FA to establish JAA Memorial Lectures in memory of Jones Abu Alhassan
The Ghana Football Association has promised to established annual memorial lectures christened The Jones Alhassan Abu Memorial Lectures in memory of the late football administrator.
This was made public by the President of the association Kurt E.S. Okraku at the final funeral rites of the late administrator in Tamale on Sunday.
According to the GFA President, the late Jones dedicated his entire life to football and must be honoured.
For someone who spent over three decades in football as a top administrator and lawmaker, the GFA believe his memory must be indelible.
The late Jones passed on in Ivory Coast while on national duty with Hasaacas Ladies during the WAFU Zone B Women’s Champions League.
The late Jones held several football portfolios in all the administrative organs of the FA and until his sudden demise, he was a member of the Division One League Board and the Black Stars Management Committee.
