Stop the silly excuses and go for the gold.
How long have you been in the States ?
Nonsense
Where does he thinks he hails from, the US?
Talking too much is what makes you tired ! In America , athletes like Azamati go to the South and places like Florida so they can train in the hot weather so what’s this guy talking about ? !!
Say it again - Azamati eats one or two hamburgers so now he thinks he’s too big. He’s now an Afro-Ghanaian.

Nonsense de3 Nonsense
Look at another idiot with slave mentality
Nonsense.
Is this funny athlete the only person facing this problem of the weather? Very Typical.
In fact, some of you don't deserve to be where you find yourself now. If God bless some of you small norrrhhh, then you start the blow 'Shit'. Tell us where you were when you started this running. From your university days, i ...

You people!!! Excuses anytime you perform poorly. You can't beat the guy from Cameroon. He was too fit and good to be beaten. From the races I saw on TV yesterday, you will place 4th in the final.
Great prophet
Stopped, the blame game and face the fact. Some of the athletes are better than you and you can’t beat them. You know the weather is a factor but you decided to come in late and complain. You might have genuine concern, as ...

All we have is users video on social media. Crab! Which TV Station is shooting? No wonder the stands were empty until free tickets
So what prevented u from coming to Ghana 2weeks to acclimatized before the competition
Ei saa?So soon? Then why didn't you come earlier? You all didn't want to take part in the games. No excuse please.
A good athlete or player never complains about weather or pitch. This guy and the south African hockey team are not professionals, they're dumb and not good, that is why they're finding excuses. Metcheeew!!!
I think you're talking too much.
So the games should be put on hold for you??? just asking...
He is right! A lot of Ghanaians do not understand track. Track can be erratic. One little thing can take you out of your race. Conditioning is very important. 1 week? Not adequate enough. This guy runs 9.99 so running 10.41 i ...

He should have factored in the acclimatization. So he should have been in Ghana beyond 2 weeks.
He shouldn't now blame the weather.
He's right. There should have been acclimatisation. Meaning, having stayed for that long in the US, he should have come earlier to get used to the weather down here at home. This will help his body get adjusted to the weathe ...

He is acting like a Tipical Ghanaian lazy man....
Lazy Ghanaians infecting him.
Don’t write “Tipical” but rather, write Typical. @Derrick Amevor, I hope this helps.
Benjamin is probably suffering from Idiopathic pride!!
No two ways about that
Watch the food and water
They will not support but share your glory!! Nice work brother
Kwasiaaakwa
Is it not the same stadium and the same weather you started running from. You people when God bless you small and you travel abroad noor then you begin to behave as if you are not Ghanaians or Africans. Nonsense
Fucking talk. Did the others come from Mars
My friend stop the nonsense and train harder. When you were 1st in the heats did you complained? Just accept your position, go back to the drawing board and come back next time. Good luck next time.
