Jordan Anagblah, the departed Ghana FA Vice President will be laid to rest on July 14 in Accra, the bereaved family has confirmed.

The 55-year-old died on June 14 at the SSNIT Hospital in Accra after surrendering to illness.

The sudden death of the veteran football administrator has saddened the whole football fraternity and as such a befitting burial is being arranged in his honour.

“We have put a committee in place to ensure that proceeds from the funeral will be invested in the upkeep of his children.”

A one week commemoration of Anagblah’s death will be observed on Thursday at Alhaji Seidu Park at Madina (Nsamanpom) in Accra.
