Bentil is bring petty on this. It was clearly explained that the rationale is to make football attractive and competitive. If a player eventually gets a contract outside, a percentage of the transfer fee is paid back into the fund. How is this difficult to understand? How will your workers contribute to the fund?

WHO IS A FOOTBALLER? All footballers are paid by their clubs. Otherwise we are all footballers. I just returned from exercising and I played football. NDC is mentally bankrupt

Wrong Priorities Nigeria chooses to pay footballers instead of paying their soldiers well, so that they can fight Boko Haram. No wonder their soldiers run out of ammunition and run away when fighting boko haram.

Re: If you’ll pay footballers, you should pay my w Can we look at payment of footballers seriously? Clubs sell footballers so if there can be some modalities that can make clubs pay percentage of the money accrued from footballers sale to government it will be great!

One house, one Ghanaian NDC's promise NDC is going to promise a house each for every Ghanaian should they come to power. That is their last straw. Ghanaians should keep their ears open for that announcement. Desperation is pushing NDC to the brink of bankrupting
