Rightly, he needs to apologise. If he was not happy with the behaviour of Armah he should have complained through the proper channel. What he did could have landed him in trouble with the law.

in the face of injustice? How many Ghanaians do that everyday in Ghana to protect their pathetic jobs? Look what that has gotten us? A police office demands bribe and no one stands up to him. A chief director for education steals money donated by foreign country to help education? No one says a thing. A charlatan professes to be a prophet and fleeces his ignorant and desperate flock? No one says anything. Such is the problem in Ghana no one stands up for injustice.

Secondly, when I am in Ghana and a police officer asks for money(it has never happened to me), I will tell him NO. If he insists he'll just be wasting his time. In fact I will burn the money(Canadian dollars) in front of him just to make the point. Yes slapping an idiot like Apaak was the right decision.

Hey so-called Captain Canada cmon behave and don't act like Ghanaians in Canada have loss our values and manners. Under no circumstance are u right to slap a fellow man. In fact it is an act of assault and even in Canada u could be jail for it. If u have problem with officials, there are better ways to make ur voice be heard. I live in Canada as well and Canada is against violence that is why we have cops all over and if someone fights u wrongly u can call the cops on that individual. The fact is that Muntari has assaulted an official and he needs to be punished and face the law. I'm a big fun of Sulley Muntari and I feel sad that he got hinself into this but he has to bear the consequences. Under no circumstance should u assault anyone even if u are right. And if u are humble enough to beg for forgiveness for the assault the good Lord will lift u up when u gain the respect of Ghanaians for showing courtesy and values as a Ghanaian. And I believe his suspension will be minimized when he does so. He will even gain respect and love from the officials as well. I like Muntari so much and I hope he will put his pride as side

Canada then you are living in a bubble. I dare you to go to a hockey game and mouth off. If you live in Toronto, the next time the Leafs are in the playoffs, go to little Italy and mouth off to a leaf fan and see what happens to you. Knocking some sense into a blockhead in Canada is recommended. It is why not all fights end in charges. Muntari did what Ghanaians because of their timidity, need to do to get some justice.

Nobody in Canada js slaps anybody's face js because u don't agree with ur authorities. Cmon don't disgrace us because some of us are very cultured and very respectful. By the way I lived in Toronto for 10yrs and I am now living in Calgary where I have also lived for a total of 7yrs too. Overall I have lived in Canada for almost 18yrs and yet I still hold my Ghana values and culture very well because there are rich and I'm proud of it

WHEN THIS ATTITUDE OF MUNTARI STAYS LIKE THIS WITHOUT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT, IT WOULD BE A MOUNTING CONSCIOUS WORKING AGAINST HIM AND WILL AFFECT HIS PERFORMANCE BADLY HIS CLUB LEVEL. REPRESENTING YOUR COUNTRY IS AN HONOUR THAT MUST BE RESPECTED. AMONG OVER 25,000,000 POPULATION OF GHANA AND YOU ARE POINTED AT, CALLED AMONG 30 PLAYERS AND LASTLY SELECTED TO PLAY FOR GHANA, THIS IS AN HONOUR. THE WHOLE WORLD KNEW OF THIS UNFORTUNATE BEHAVIOUR, SLAPPING A MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATION THAT SAW TO YOUR SELECTION TO THE BLACK STARS. THIS IS A VERY BAD BEHAVIOUR.

There is no African mentality about apology. Truth is Sulley had no business physically assaulting an elderly man. Bear in mind, Parker restrained himself until Sulley came back with a second slap. So what at all did Parker do wrong to warrant such an attack? Merely saying take your time, be patient the money will come does not equate to slaps. Why must you blame African mentality for the stupidity of Sulley? Sulley should be in Brazilian Jail for assault by now. Let's get civilized and stop this
blame game behavior. I agree with Annan, Sulley was wrong no matter how you look at it period.

Moses Apaak is not elderly. He's another blowhard from Ghana who confused his political connections with GFA with his self importance. Whe was his function at the world cup? Why was he in a black stars meeting? Who died and appointed him as a spokesperson? What right did he have to speak to Sulley Muntari? Apaak is not an elder and African elders should not be accorded any respect when they act foolishly and stupidly. Apaak and the rest of the GFA officials suffer from delusions of grandeur. They forgot the reason the were at the world cup. How many goals did any of the leaches score to enable Ghana qualify? Until Ghanaians call out idiots like the GFA goons and Apaak, the nation will continue to suffer from shoddy and mediocre services. I am certain the stars would have done well if all the GFA goons including Apaak were left at home and only a skeleton crew made up of the coaches were sent. They could have hired the rest of the support staff from a Brazilian team. If you demand payment for you work would you like some nobody to tell to be quiet?
Sulley Muntari should be hailed as a hero for literally striking a blow against the corrupt and despicable toads masquerading as leaders in Ghana.

No matter his grievance, Sulley Muntari had absolutely no right to attack Moses Parker. As for the nonsense about the officials "chopping money", has anyone (including that fool Muntari) been able to produce any evidence to back that claim? I don't think so. It's just the usual rubbish spewed out by the public with no substance.

I can't believe some morons are even condoning what Muntari did and asking for him to return. That idiot has been indisciplined since the start of his career and anyone naïve and ignorant of his past indiscretions should research his career.

Have you ever heard players from any respected football country assaulting an official? It's even a direct result of the ignorance and "bush" mentality permeating through our culture that's why Muntari isn't languishing in jail for what he did. If he dared put up that behaviour in Italy or anywhere abroad where his peers behave in a more civilised manner, I can guarantee you he would have been arrested and jailed. For those too stupid or ignorant to know this, players have been jailed in Europe for assaulting other players even on the pitch, let alone off the pitch. Just ask ex-Evertonian Duncan Ferguson for starters.

Would you ever hear Ronaldo, Messi, or any of the global superstars attacking a national team official? No, they wouldn't dare firstly because they're civilised and appreciate law and order, unlike some uneducated, uncivilised excuse of a human being as Sulley Muntari who acts and behaves like a beast in the jungle.

to equate the goons from with European, American and Asian officials. Not the same.We are talking about Ghana. A country where petty officers steal money from the nations coffers with impunity. In Europe and elsewhere a dirtbag like Moses Apaak will not be in the players meeting room. In Europe the players will be paid what is their due so there will be no need to have that meeting. In Europe and elsewhere players demands are respected. Here is a question to counter your hogwash, did you see any nation from Europe, Americas or Asia flying 3 million dollars to Brazil?

Counter my hogwash? Let me counter your utter garbage Captain Canada (and I hope that reference to Canada in your name isn't just a random moniker you chose).

I would like to believe you actually reside in Canada, to which I will say I'm extremely disappointed you still appear not to have shed the senseless, animalistic tendencies that some see as the norm in Ghana. Where in a civilised country does ANYONE launch a physical attach on someone simply because they're perceived to be a drain on the economy? Tell me!!!

Have you considered the fact that it was that bush, jungle mentality that forced the President to fly millions of dollars to those players just to protect the image of the country? Have you considered that you moron?

Listen, I am not one to condone corruption (if and only if proven), but I will never condone what Muntari did under any circumstance. With the sort of mentality that you possess, is it any wonder then that the country is being ravaged by armed robbing savages, etc? Why will they not thrive when the country is bereft of the law and order that I'm guessing you enjoy in Canada?

Get rid of your stupid jungle mentality where you thing everything has got to be settled by violence. It's primitive!!

Disappointed? Who cares? First of all you said 'civilised country'. That is definitely not Ghana. Ghana is not civilised despite the pretence. That renders all the rest of your comments stupid. But I will continue. Violence teaches. If you don't know that then you are a novice. When facing the brutish power of the state you don't sing kumbaya. Know anything about revolutions including the American revolution? Violence is an agent for change. Ask George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. Have you heard the phrase 'entering a gunfight with a knife"? It means when you a polite with brutes they'll run you over. Well what you aptly identified as 'jungle mentality' is what the GFA goons brought to the table. When you behave like an animal you deserve to be treated like an animal. Moses Apaak and the rest showed they 'jungle mentality' and sulley muntari responded. Meanwhile the rest of the world minus Nigeria and Cameroon, continued on as civilised nations do. They paid their players without them demanding their money. You may pretend you detest corruption but you are an apologist for corruption and corrupt behaviour. Do you know why Ghanaians behave themselves outside Africa? Because they know they'll be metaphorically slapped if they step out of line. Rawlings put the fear of god in them and as soon as he gave up power they went back to their jungle ways. In Canada there is the law and order. In Ghana it is the law of the jungle and who pays more bribe. You cannot compare them.

Reggie you are as wrong as purchasing two left shoes.Do you think the officials in Messi's or Ronaldo's country will withhold players stipends or put them in a substadard hotels when they are supposed to be accommodated in a three or four star hotel? Gone were the days when we were cramped in Ghana and did not know any better.If Mutari was wrong as you naively think don't you think it could have resulted in an arrest.Don't you think also think if that your so called elderly Apaak was a discipline person he could have restrained himself and lodge a complain to the Brazillian authorities or the Minister of Sports.What you have forgotten is that For every action there is equal and opposit reaction.Take census of the comments here and see how many people support Munari. Ghanaians are becoming fed up with our corrupt oficials and it is high time our leaders take cognisance of this. It has started with this world cup and very soon it will extend to other areas of the Ghanaian life . Just watch and see

Ama Atta,

If you think the actions of a barely literate buffoon as Muntari is sound justification for some political protestation, then I'm afraid you're as naïve as that idiot who calls himself a player.

Let me ask you this then. Would you also endorse any Black Stars fan, fed up with the decades of indiscipline and underperformance by the team, physically attacking players like Muntari? Would you be happy with me smashing that idiot Muntari's head in for the sole reason that he'd not performed in all the years that I'd invested in watching the Black Stars? After all, based on the law of the "jungle" that you appear to endorse, I should be able to do whatever the hell that I wish to do to a scumbag like Muntari simply because he's pissed me off, righg?

Think carefully about the scenario I've just thrown to you.

Reggie,
You can never win this debate. Have you noticed the insults you have poured on Muntari in trying to drive home your point? Do you mean to say that it is CIVIL to call people names?
Have you noticed how your points become weaker and weaker as you continue counteracting? Why will a fan smash a player’s head for underperforming?
Even “your England”, the birthplace of soccer, what have they been able to produce in many years now?
Even the English soccer team who has been more disappointing than the great Steve Gerrard? In Liverpool, who has been more disappointing than Steve Gerrard?
Talking about armed robbers in Ghana because of this and that, is not the same in the UK where soldiers are murdered in cold blood in the glare of daylight?
If you don’t like what Muntari did, say just that. If the official felt he was assaulted he should have lodged a complaint with the authorities. Period.

I have a few questions for the deluded people on this thread who are actually endorsing Muntari's actions.

1) What offence did Moses Parker cause to warrant the assault on him?

2) Is it lawful for one person to take the law into their own hands and assault another in any civilised and law-abiding society?

3) Would any person on the street with a grievance against the Black Stars for underperforming, be justified in attacking Muntari in the street?
After all, from the nonsense that we read, Muntari saw himself as a crusader fighting the cause of the ordinary person in Ghana, so on the same token, perhaps his attacker could also claim to be fighting the cause of the long-suffering Ghana Black Stars fan right?

4) Can someone actually provide concrete evidence to back the claims that the officials in Brazil were or are corrupt or are we typically just clinging onto the typical village rumour-mill and hearsay?

Anthony Annan May have a point. But, I disagree with him on the notion that Muntari should just go and apologize given the presumption that he is culpable on the single premise that the elder has some justification to provoke Muntari because of his age and experience. Muntari ought to apologize to Ghanaians and all the football fraternity in the world for using the esteem platform of the World Cup to do what he did. He should have restrained his anger on the basis of him being a role model to the young people of Ghana and the world at large. No elder is beyond reproach; hence, the man in question should know that his status calls for stricter scrutiny and accountability as regards his conduct. It is about time our Elders also learn to respect their positions and thus behave more responsibly.

Athletes are not role models. The never asked for that role so how can they be? Kicking an inflated bag make you a role model how? That whole trope of 'athletes are role models' is an excuse for parents to shift their responsibility to someone else. an athlete is a business man He trade is talent for money. He/She is not there to raise anyone's kid. Role model? If Sulley Muntari claimed there is no god would you expect Ghanaian kids to follow him? Or as a role model he cannot hold that belief?

Nations that have respect for the truth irrespective of the status of an individual in a dispute will always progress. I am afraid, Annan has not learnt this most important lesson.

I think Anthony Anna has spoken the mined of most Ghanaians, what Sulley must do is just issue a press statement to Ghanaians for an apology t and that will be enough. All players our love mother Ghana. It was just unfortunate that things turned the way it did at the camp of the Black Stars. Let us forgive.The platform used by Sulley to register his displeasure was inappropriate and has caused so much pain to all of us but let us all give him another chance.

Repentance and plea for forgiveness are Godly. That is the first thing Muntari has to do. Then comes tampering Justice with mercy. That is also Godly. God is Merciful. It is therefore in order if he begins the move.

MUNTARI DID THE RIGHT THING TO CHANGE THINGS,NO MATTER WHAT THE BLAME WOULD HAVE BEEN.

Many of our traditions are archaic and need to be changed,to be useful,in our today's society and life.

ONE CANNOT CHANGE WHAT HE REFUSES TO CONFRONT.
ONE CANNOT ADAPT TO THE PRESENT,TO ENTER HIS FUTURE.HE MUST RATHER HATE TO CHANGE THINGS,IN ORDER TO REALIZE A BETTER FUTURE.
Anger is a clue to one's assignment,anointing,responsibilities,solving a problem,which God has ordained you to.
The situation that infuriated him was a clue to what God has ordained him to change:
CORRUPTION & BRIBERY IN GHANA & AFRICA.
We tend to apologise on something badly,mistakenly,wrongly,intentionally etc done.
MUNTARI'S REACTION WAS FOR A JUST CAUSE.
So why the apology?
I think,the entire body:
THE GFA MANAGEMENT,SHOULD RATHER,LOOK DIRECTLY INTO THE CAMERA,TO SAY:

WE MADE A TERRIBLE MISTAKE IN BRAZIL,THEREFORE,WE APOLOGISE GREATLY FOR THAT.

Listen Annan, tell us what religion and democracy say. If you think the old adage is what we should maintain. Very soon in one of the days coming, you or any other player in the Black Stars camp will jump on one of these corrupt officials, because they will never change, but expect grown people representing their country to change and apologize for standing up for their rights. Remember, we shed blood to gain our independence which the colonial masters did not like. Did we apologize for that? The British government did a lot of good things for us, remember? This slave enslaving a fellow slave mentality is not acceptable and we will fight against it

Anthony Annan urges Muntari, to apologize, but it will not happen. I do not think that Medeama president, Moses Armah, was just a good guy and did not do anything and Sulley Muntari, came from somewhere and attacked him. Of course, I was not there, but knowing the mentality of some of these Ghanaian authorities, they want to play chief and not yield to their subordinates. Apology is good, but if I were Sulley Muntari, I will not apologize, not today not tomorrow. Let Ghana authorities learn a bitter lesson from their own behavior. Sulley Muntari, is a professional player, therefore, he deserve respect from the Ghana Football authorities, in my view. Something that could be discussed closed door, did not happen, so this is the situation. I am sure that Sulley Muntari, will always play for Ghana if called, but in this incident, I do not see him apologizing. This is my point.
