The most unfortunate thing about this is that those who should be ashamed about the terrible state of our football do not even bother at all. They see nothing wrong. It's so sad that we keep going down and down and we are not able to check it, like a car climbing a hill and its engine goes off while the car keeps rolling down as no real effort is made to help is out.
We are wasting away. Ghana football is wasting.

Just listen to the nonsense from Stephen Appiah. Are Akuffo Addo, Timothy Bawumia, Napo not embarrassment to Ghanaian people? These guys call themselves leaders but can't think. Why didn't Stephen Appiah advise the good for nothing leaders like Akuffo Addo and Timothy Bawumia? The money under Cecilia Dapaah's bed can build three sports stadiums.

It is a disgrace that a nation of football as Ghana doesn't have a standard stadium. Try visiting Ivory Coast and you will see how many standard football stadiums they have. Corrupt government and GFA.

Akuffo Addo is not a leader. Everyone knows that. Mahama and, sadly, Bawumia are no better. The country has never known true democracy as the 1992 constitution is just a constitution for a dictator in a very dangerous way where the dictator is in a hurry to amass as much wealth as people before losing election. At least a permanent dictator will not be in a rush to loot.

I told my younger brother that I feel ashamed of telling people i am from Ghana. This was 6 years ago. That was when I realized something was really going wrong with the country. The current leaders (npp) are the worst bunch I've ever seen. Luckily I live in a better country and I can tell you Ghana has been moved back by over 30 years. I visited last year November, what a sad state of affairs. so sad.

Kwesi Nyantekyi is a thief; we are not a country of low morality and weak minds to go and bring in such a man who was caught in a video taking bribe, and unashamedly selling his country out by planning how to capture the state through dubious contracts involving the president and others. We are not a moraly bankrupt people. Some of you have no integrity. There are many competent people of high integrity and high morality out there who can lead our football, and we can find them if we sincerely want to. Stop this Nyantekyi nonsense.

In 2016 we had 4 stadia which were good enough to host category 3 FIFA and CAF matches; Accra, Kumasi, Cape Coast, and Tamale. In fact, we hosted Uganda in a CAF qualifier at the Tamale stadium in October 2016. Now 8 years down the lane, everything has deteriorated, with our leaders looking on like dead bain zombies. NPP is a curse to this country. After receiving the most revenue in our history, they have succeeded in bankrupting the country, reducing the economy ftom B minus in 2016 to junk status, destroyed our water bodies and the environment, subjected Ghanaians to unprecedented excruciating hardships, and have now reduced the only thing that keeps us united and happy, football, to an embarrassing spectacle of international disgrace. What at all have we done as a people to deserve all these? Yet some sycophantic buffoon remote-controlled empty brain zombies will come out defending them, and calling on us to go and line up like idiots to vote for them again to continue with their nonsense; Are we a cursed people unable to take dicisive action to punish anyone who subjects our country to such ignominy and embarrassment? NPP, never again; tofiakwa!!!

You are right, Stephen Appiah. It's a national embarrassment to have stadia that do not meet international standard. But, I have a nice suggestion to Stephen Appiah and all these players, past and present, who by the opportunities the Black Stars offered them, have gained notoriety, riches, money and are now multi-millionaires. Many of them ride in big, big cars, here and abroad;
You guys can show your appreciation to the nation, by contributing to build a great stadium for the nation as your giving back to a nation that has supported your football careers.
That's what great players do
