You were lucky in your time to have Essien, muntari and other committed players. After you left there has been too much drama from players staff and captains.

Okraku is an idiot. Clueless idiot. He don't have a clue what he is doing as gfa president. He came fir the job just to use the gfa to amass wealth. ALl the national teams men and women have failed under his tenure. Meanwhile, players like osei kofi, razak, adjoa bayor,, essien, appiah, muntari, odartey, john Mensah etc are all alive. These people were the golden generation of Ghana and national soccer excellence. Why don't you consult them.. reach out to them and pick their brains. What did they do in camp to make them successful?. invite them to hangout with the current bstars etc. This pigheaded okraku fucking bonehead He copies and still fail exams

Follow Tradition. Everytime a new bstar or national team captain is crowned. in the likes of partey. He shoukd host a party or dinner for all previous captains of the bstars. This shoukd be a national team Tradition going forward. Partey shoukd do this and he will learn so much from these old gurus. It will even help his own career

I pray that u repent. We left one woman to her faith as she use to play music at the time of our prayers and her house was just 18 meters away from the mosque. Effort to make her stop failed. We all agreed to allow her since she was looking for trouble. Today as I speak she pass on 3 days a go. Don't fight Allah Almighty by insulting his prophets. Muslim don't insult prophets so y are u doing this all the time. Please repent before death comes to u which is closer than ur thoughts.

Ayews and Bawumia are the same mess of leadership. Muslims like too much power that is why too much war in Muslim countries. Bawumia will bring war to Ghana soon.

Given the current level and climate of mismanagement and corruption in Ghana, nothing will positively work on our favour.
We are destroying the basic livelihoods God bestowed on us as a people so all will go against us.
We are destroying trees, animals both living on land and in the rivers & Sea, flora and weeds and bushes because some want to be rich & wealthy.
As destroyers of God`s creation, not only our sports but all will be negative against us.

Stephen Appiah should have advised Partey before exposing him to the sports world. I suggest Steve watches his utterances before they come out because comments like this can dreadfully affect the players. A former captain should not speak like an ordinary fan. This was below the belt.

my point is the main problem is with football ppl.
how much is our local players being payed in gh.
A country that has been to four world cups, players earn about 150 dollars monthly whilst in tanzania,

players are payed from 2000 dollars up,
TP MAZEMBE PLAYERS ARE PAYED ABOUT 5000 USD

Why is this country just like that,

Stephen you failed to mention tactless coaches after your term, very shambolic succeeding minister of sports lack of oversight responsibilities of the ministry and FA.Recent football administration have fallen.

Almost all the players that you called felt they are self sufficient. And don't play a team work, because we called them professionals, who can play ball from post to post and he feel so skillful that he can score a goal alone, without passing the ball to a playing mate, they never thought it causes a great disaster. You can play like Messi, that magic will never work, that why we say a team work.

At times, they want an honor that he can score a goal, forgetting that it was passed from one of them before, he got the chance to score, so why do you claim bona fide owner of goal. They have to join and do a team work, they will easily score goals. They should put aside that professional syndrome and play a team work, it will help them a lot.

No country is sleeping for any other in football. Captain in the field what about the coach and the technical team by the field. Is easy blame Ghana's team on captains hip but other teams have captains too.

Well spoken, most distinguished Captain.
Your example of leadership should continue to inspire present and future leaders in sports and other sectors of our society.
However, the problem with the Black Stars may not only be about leadership. It may have to do with lack of personal discipline and egotism on the part of the players. In such situations, the team will be very difficult to lead effectively.
