In his bid to ensure he has full control devoid of interference, the astute lawyer wants to be responsible for the management team while he reports to the club directors or owners.

He will not be paid any monthly salary as the club's chief executive but wants the club to pay or reimburse him for any out of pocket expenses or incidental expenses incurred in the performance of his duties.

Essentially, he prefers to stay in any place of his choice in Ghana to execute his mandate.
