How do we spend more than the benefits from the competition as far as the group stage elimination is concerned?

This man should be fired! Three million and you are out after just 3 matches? This is pure corruption. We don't even have a stadium compared to any of Ivory Coast's type. And you spent Millions just for early stages of the tournament? He is a thief! How much money did Nigeria even earned, placing second?? This man must be prosecuted.

Breaking News. Bastie is SATANIC Homosexual, and Feaces, Shit, LATRINE CARRIER.

Bastie is NOT Bono, but Immigrant whose Family have History of carrying Feaces, Shit, or Latrine

Bastie is a Satanic Homosexual, and Child Molester who should be Executed by Firing Squad

NOTE: Bastie has publicly confessed on Ghanaweb that he is indeed, a Satanic Homosexual, and Bi-Sexual

Bastie is a Satanic Bi-Sexual whose Homosexual partners are P. Djambe, Frankie, Sam the Fanti Warrior, and Dormaa’s Homosexual Chief Agyemang Badu, who is half Ivorian

Bastie should be arrested having Satanic Anus sex with P Djambe, and for claiming that he had Anus sex with Dormaa’s Homosexual Chief, Agyemang Badu

Bastie’s Prostitute mother is a Satanic Bi-Sexual Lesbian whose Vagina smells too bad, according to many people from Bestie’s Village

Note. Bastie is NOT Bono, but has DNA of Shit / Feaces Carrier, pretending to be Bono

Bastie is Inferior, and forever, and ever, Inferior to Asante Human-Beings it hates

BUT 2024 AFCON WINNING PRICE IS $7 MILLION

How on earth will you budget more than what you would have gotten if Ghana had won? Thought you didn't spend all the $8 million plus budget, it just doesn't make sense.

3 million in 2 weeks for AFCON group elimination. But you give league winners 30 thousand . Corrupt country, with this we will never make any progress.

How can you budget 8.5 million for a tournament when the actual price is 7million? Is it not counter-productive? Somebody should give me an answer.

This should be the last time the budget is bigger than the prize money! The corruption and pampering is too much and has destroyed any pinch of patriotism in the players.
