Ghana Football Association president Kwesi Nyantakyi is uncertain over security in Egypt ahead of next month�s World Cup qualifying playoff in Cairo. The African powerhouses clash in the return leg of the final qualifying phase, with Ghana virtually through after a 6-1 first-leg win. Despite assurances from the Egyptian FA that security will be at full strength at the Air Defense Stadium, Ghana�s football governing body is still anxious. �My strongest conviction is that the match should be moved away from Cairo because I think security is seriously compromised in Cairo and the situation keeps escalating day in day out,� Nyantakyi told Accra-based Joy FM. �We cannot risk the lives of our players, officials and supporters by going to Cairo, I do not think that any life lost is replaceable and so in the interest of fairness and security it is better for FIFA to look outside Egypt for a venue for the match.� The Egyptian FA also revealed this week that 30,000 supporters will be allowed to attend the November 19 match at the military-owned stadium.
