Kman, I don't agree with you. They earn foreign currency so do I though I don't earn anywhere the money they earn but we all contribute towards the building of the nation including those working in Ghana and not earning dollars or Euros. Where is their patriotism if they insist they are special and should be paid in dollars?
I thought these Players play for Ghana for the love for their countries. Most of the European countries and USA team don't get winning bonuses for playing for their countries.

Why should it be so?,do they deserve better than the other?.Well, since our currency is the cedi everything should also be paid in the cedi.....Houses, plots, cars and every other thing should also be in cedis. We should know that it`s the main reason why our currency is losing it`s value..The demands are too much...If we want our cedi to be accepted and respected in the community of nations then we should respect it first.....Our currency will continue to fall till we stop this practice...One can never use Euro in the States same as one cannot use Dollar in Europe..

The taxes for these players must deducted from their bonuses. The ministry of gfa must issue them checks. Instead of cash. The tax deductions must never stated on the check stub all in cedis.

The new bank of Ghana measures only look strange because of the dollarised psyche of Ghanaians. Actually, there shouldn't be any fuss about someone in Ghana being paid for his services in cedis. In other countries, the citizens themselves want to be paid in their local currency because they are conscious that, that is their medium of exchange is their local currency. In Ghana, our medium of exchange is the cedi and there should be no qualms about that. For me, what is surprising is why we (including even the government) have done the wrong thing all this long while. Indeed the cedi is our medium of exchange, period.

Black Stars have over the years been over pampered as if no country in Africa has ever crossed the world cup quater final stage. Ghanaians in agradicement try to garnish their quarter finals with a certain Suarez blockage of a last breath header by Aidiah as if it makes any difference from other quarter final exploit of other African countries. Ghana over the years have relied on this quarter final to claim one of the best in the world, whereas the Black Stars remains an average team even in Africa where the likes of Cape Verde, Mali, Zambia, Burkina Faso etc have no respect for such self acclaimed status in Africa. The Black Stars is just a grossly overated national side relying on a stale and dead 2010 world cup performances. Unfortunately FIFA does not rate teams by once a performace in a single tournament four years after its all come to a closure.

It is time every Tom, Dick and Harry sacrifice a little or feel the pinch of this economic hardship. I hope when Mr. Mahama and his entourage returns from London, their allowances would be paid to them in Cedis than in any foreign currency as it used to be previously.

I don't see any problem here. The players are Ghanaians and must be paid in the local currency. If they are foreign based, they have enough to live on from the clubs they play for and should invest their local earned bonuses in Ghana since the bonus are paid from taxpayers money.
We are creating a problem where none exist. If any player think he will not [play for Ghana because his bonus is being paid in cedis, then he should not be invited to play for Ghana.
At least these players can accept their money in cedis and if they want to transfer part or all of it in any currency, then they should go through the same process ordinary Ghanaians go through in getting a foreign currency.

My layman's point of view is that all we need is a vibrant economy. Foreign exchange controls are an indication that the economy is on the downward trend. Countries like Turkey or UAE(Dubai)allow all hard currencies to trade along side their currencies without any problems and yet such countries are doing very well. I don't see our beef in using the Dollar or the Cedi. We must rather strive hard to increase exports and in no time the value of the Cedi will sky rocket.

No the pay them pounds because that is the money everybody use. How stupid can any black Stars be to ask for dollars after playing football for ghana.
How stupid will a black star player be asking for something ghana and ghanaians dont have. Ghanaians spend cedis not dollars.
The fool qho wrote this peice of shit should always think before putting pen and paper together. He is calling Black Star players stupid and think they will fall for his srupid idea about dollars and black stars. The players are not playing for money it a world cup.
