I am indeed proud of you;go ahead to seek for the truth. We're prepared to do away with this corrupt GFA that will strangely reward a non performing Coach simply because they apparently have their interest in it. We're ready to serve any so call ban than to allow the corrupt GFA to be in office.

Wiseman, you and who is ready to serve the FIFA ban? You and your NDC cronies have vowed to change Kwesi Nyantakyi at all cost. it is in the interest of you and your cronies and not that of Ghanaians to be ban from Fifa games

Act, nobody is after Nyantakyi's removal but we all wanted to know what went wrong at Brazil fiasco. For the first time that GFA Boss himself being the Head of the Management Committee has led the team to Brazil but things falls apart soo easily. 52 or more government and GFA officials with their families booked at first class tickets and the MAIN players at economic class. From the plane to hotels those untouchables officials were the ones who secure the best parts.
Secondly, Ghana was the only country which has rewarded it non performing coach with new contract with an increment.
What was wrong for knowing all the facts from Brazil fiasco to the renewal plus the increment of the coaches job?
Was that a vowed to change Akwasi Nyantakyi at all cost?
It will be better for us to know the whole TRUTH and get the Fifa's ban than to pretend nothing was wrong.

If the nation wants to know what went wrong then you don`t need any commission to be set up. Those going to sit in the committee, will they be paid? The same corrupt committee members would be selected. What the government needs to do is get a report from the officials that sent these boys to the world cup. From their report, the government could know what went wrong. The government is aware that these officials took their family members there and it`s the same government that took care of them. Have you forgotten the one that used government money to buy pampers for his girlfreind? What did the government do? Nothing.

I really cant understand why people are so emotional about this simple issue.

You join an association (FIFA) in which the rules and regulations are clearly spelt out for all members.

You agree and sign to abide by the laid down regulations of the association.

Then later down the road, you decide that you want to do things your own way in contravention of that association. What kind of behaviour is this and what do you expect will happen as a result?

If you are not thrown out or sanctioned in one way or the other, you will be tagged as a trouble-maker.

It is this kind of weird unprincipled behaviour and misconduct that has managed to keep us so under-developed.

Look all around us, we have made beautiful laws, rules and regulations to ensure that we can all benefit adequately from a civilized society. But what happens? Nobody observes the laws and we continue to undermine the interest of each other into a situation where nothing seems to work for anybody except the rich and powerful in society.

I used to have some distant respect for this Foh-Amoaning chap but I have lately come to realize that he is just another of these johnny-come-lately opportunists and buffoons who erroneously think that by undermining laid down procedure, he can benefit from the disorder. To think that he is also a lawyer is even more annoying.

1. If your son comes home with 1/9 on his reportcard from GIS. What will you do?...lol some beatings or wetin? GIS tuition is not cheap
2. If a tech director is brought onboard. Will the td be paid more than AA? We told aa to.Go for td know desailly, rijkaard becos even the best coaches in Scolari, lowe, van gaal were all taking td's to brasil. We advices AA just as we advised Plavi.
3. Will AA listen to a td who is gettongaid more money than AA? No way!
4. Compared AA to claude renard. Renard was Ghana's facilities manager under claude Leroy. Since then, renard has moved on to win afcon trophy with zambia. AA has apprenticed under Leroy, Milo, plavi, gone on certification at prampram, liverpool, man city etc. Still,.Excuses nkoaa!
5. Every coach when hired is allowed to bring inboard their own staff. This is what is done everywhere. So why is this Gfa imposing a td on AA?

I do not know why Swiss Investigators raided FIFA offices. The circumstances may be totally different from what we have at hand.

What I am worried about is the seeming govt interference of an overly corrupt govt in the affairs of the GFA.

Nobody who has got his head screwed on right in this country, would imagine that the govts intention to rig up this unnecessary Commission of Inquiry, is in the noble quest to investigate acts of corruption and if possible, curtail it. Who, between the GFA and the Govt is more corrupt or at the very least, less productive and more morally upright to inquire about the others activities?

I support Foh that the commission should go ahead despite Fifa's warning but let's get the full report of the findings.it must be worthy of undertaking , not one of the commissions meant to enrich people.

Act, note that it is only thieves who complain when a police station is being constructed to serve a community.
So no politics. I was sincerely expressing a view which I strongly most principled Ghanaians sthand for.

Oh! Oh! Oh! Un-Wiseman. Why?

Listen to yourself, "I was sincerely expressing a view which I strongly (feel) most principled Ghanaians stand for."

Please go back to the English dictionary and look for the meaning of 'principled'. You have got it all upside down and inside out.

In spite of possible damning consequences by FIFA, here you are, screaming and shouting that the GFA should be subjected to this totally unnecessary witch hunting probe. I don’t even know now whether it is to find out or confirm that the GFA is a corrupt institution. Yet, in the same breath, you have already condemned them to hang for presumed crimes of thievery and corruption. Is this what the word and the connotation of 'principled' means to you? Come on! Be real.

We have serious problems in this country oooh!

The fake contributor (above/below) who is talking about beans and shit and all that is a 'Tilapia' impostor and should be ignored.Lets consider him as 'momoi'.

Wise man you are anything but wise. At least you have proven that yourself to everyone by your irresponsible posting.

Who, in the first place, gave you the mandate to talk on behalf of Ghanaians? Are you by any chance, some kind of tin-pot closet dictator or what?

It does not surprise me that all the contributors who think and comport themselves like you, are the same ones who are justifying this most irresponsible commission to probe the GFA, to go ahead in its mission impossible to nowhere but gloom.

Judging by your reckless propositions,I am inclined to think that you are either a small boy or you suffer from the the notorious NDC syndrome of mental retardation.

One of the symptoms of that dangerous plague is to randomly accuse people of imaginary crimes and condemn them without a hearing, proof or sufficient justification.

If I asked you right now to prove the fanciful charge of corruption that you have leveled against the GFA in your post, you will without any doubt, not be able to do so. Shame on you and all the PHD likes of you who are pursuing this dirty agenda for ulterior reasons. Shame on you again!

Someday some equally besotted person will return the offense to you and you will then know how painful it is. They call it retribution or the laws of Karma. God, they say, moves in mysterious ways.

As for the issue about the possibility of FIFA banning the Black Stars, it seems to me that you are not fully aware of the consequences and very clearly, the subject is bigger and too complex for the likes of you to comprehend.

AND I HEAR SOME GHANAIANS WERE CRYING FOUL FOR BEING REFUSED VISAS BY THE CANADIAN HIGH COMMISSION TO TRAVEL TO CANADA TO WATCH THE UNDER 20 TEAM.
IN FACT THE CONSULATE, IN MY CANDID OPINION, WOULD BE THE MOST STUPID PERSON, IF HE/SHE WERE TO GRANT A VISA TO EVEN ONE GHANA FAN TO TRAVEL TO THAT COUNTRY
