At the 29th Ordinary Session of Congress of the Ghana Football Association, the suspension of Ashgold Sporting Club was approved.
The GFA suspended Ashgold with immediate effect under Article 17(1) of the GFA Statutes due to their involvement with banned officials, namely Kwaku Frimpong and Emmanuel Frimpong over a violation of GFA and FIFA statutes.
At the Congress Session in Kumasi, 67 members of the GFA voted in favour of the continuous suspension of the Obuasi-based club, with 17 voting against it.
The duo were banned by the GFA for their involvement in sports betting and alleged match manipulation.
This decision means that Ashgold SC cannot play a part in footballing activity in the country.
