The heavenly bodies are coming together on 13th September 2013 and this will result in Michael Essien breaking his left leg in three places. Nothing can stop this event, not even TB Joshua so he should not waste his time running after pastors and mallams.

With all the money that Essien and the players that he's gonna invite for that "charity" match earn every week, why should Essien expect to collect money fron fans before he can 'give back to society'? Essien and all those stars should dip their hands into their fat bank accounts and contribute to charity. They should all donate ONE WEEKLY SALARY into a fund and give it charity, then we will appreciate what they would have done to society. Essien & co should come again, else I will spearhead a boycott of that charity match, and any other charity match by any of these football players.

I am sure you can think of more fitting ones.The title he has given sounds self-serving!May be to help polish his image but this can better be achieved with the above sugggested approac.

You're right! Essien does not need your money. He's trying to show you how he makes his money. By giving to a good cause, you enrich yourself in so many ways. Not just in finance but in all areas of your life including your family, health, job, prosperity etc, etc. Believe you me,it works. Blessed be His name forever for it is Him who gives us power to be wealthy. Serve the Lord with your substance and the first fruits of your increase and He WILL faithfully prosper you.

Thanks Essien, continue to show the way.
We are not a philanthropic society. We aren't a giving society. It is time we develop the habit of giving. There are many in our society that deserve some form of help. And there are many in our society who can afford to give but don't for reasons known only to themselves.
May the Almighty continue to bless you.

Giving something back. This is what most of us lacks. When they going is gpood we forget about home. Doing it now like Michael is the best medal any one could wish for. Bravo. Thumbs up for you.

If he loves Ghana that much, when was the last time he played for our national team. This guy is full of shit.His charity effort is just a smokescreen.

I'm shattered and almost close to tears to see Lampard leave chelsea but he can atone for this by coming to Ghana to play here.

Benny’s dog has died and he goes to see his rabbi. "Rabbi, I wonder whether you could find the time to say a special blessing at my dog's grave?"
The rabbi replies, "I'm afraid it isn't possible, Benny. In fact the rules don't really make any allowance for animals."
Benny says, "But I'm really upset, rabbi."
"So maybe you should go to see the Reform rabbi over the road," says the rabbi.
As Benny walks away dejectedly, he turns to the rabbi and says, "What a shame. I was willing to donate £1,000 for such a service."
At which point the rabbi shouts, "Come back, come back."
Benny turns round and says, "I thought you couldn't help me."
"Ah," says the rabbi, "but you didn't tell me your dog was Orthodox."

The motive may be good but my main concern is that from now to when the charity match commence, the generators and electrical issues in the stadium has to be checked and Accra Metropolitan Assembly has to get rid of the Mosquitoes dominated the population of Accra else the bad side of Ghana will be exposed to the so called international players.
