Abstract

This chapter is about how the national football association of Ghana worked to restore its legitimacy within the Ghanaian society. It addresses the importance of building national identity. Popular mobilisation prompted the government to take action against corrupt leadership in the national football association. Their success reflects their ability to create an alliance between the Federation of International Football Associations and the Confederation of African Football. This is an example of multi-level leadership involving popular protest, government and different levels of governance within the international football confederation.
