5. Langabell
6. Akrobeto

The so called dubious executive committee should be scrapped. Instead, The ceo's of the various premier league clubs should constitute as members of the fa executive. These people are directly involved in the goodness of soccer in Ghana. No need for amphibious,.peripheral dunderheads, whose sole ambition is stomach talk, bribes.

I will say Herbert is the best person because at least we saw the good things he did for Ghana. Corruption in football will decrease. Abedi was a great player but I dont think he will be a good administrator. His Nania team was a bad examples playings a fixed match some few years ago. Also I think he's too close to Blatter who we al know is corrupt, yet no enough evidence to kick him out. Its like show me your friend and I will show you your character. So Herbert all the way if only Nyantakyi does not come up with an FA to stop him from contesting.

They will never forgive for the disgrace you fetched them in Brazil.

Don't let your stomach be your adviser. You and Appiah must resign.

No one can take Mr Nyantakyi's achievement record from him but few would argue that it is time for him to go.The question though is that we should be careful about who we put in his place. Asemsebe!

I don't get it when ignorant people ask what Abedi has done for Ghana? What did Obama, Clinton, Sepp Blatter and even Nyantekyi do before getting the positions they are in? Abedi won the African cup of Nations cup and has flown the flag of Ghana for years opening the gates for your current players. He sacrificed so much for Black Stars yet he is never appreciated by past and present agents of the FA. What happened at in Brazil did not just start, it has been going since forever which he fought but because of these ignorant haters nothing came out of his efforts. Abedi should have slapped them too like Sulley did. "Fool stop" Caution: This story is not from Abedi so please don't insult..

I have always wondered why Herbert Mensah has been quite about Ghana soccer. Because this man has the experience and the committment for the game. Since he left Kotoko, the club has not achieve much.

God bless Abedi Pele. Herbert is a businessman just like Nyantakyi. Folks have started playing tribalsim and politics once again by jumping to push Herbert. The same issue that brought us the Nyantakyi-Kwesi Appiah rubbish and global humiliation.

Abedi Pele, please help your nation, it is service to God. Under you we will once again rule Africa and shake up the World Cup.

God bless Ghana.
