  This moron minister needs head examination, I think he is loosing it. I don't know if its just me, I find majority of NDC's leadership are not sane. they don't make sense anytime they open their mouth. Ghana has gone to the dogs. I doubt if there is any hope for Ghana if we are producing these kind of leaders.

  This Minister belongs to a different world that has no ANY connection to the realities of our true world. Does he thinks the players of Germany, Argentina, Netherlands etc will play so hard if these players know very well that what is genuinely and legally due them was not paid them?

  its funny how some the so call ministers will just pop in and make statements which are not relevant every stupid person who really wants play the national team in the name of weeping must just buy robb or ola balm to share tears from his eyes and that will prove the readiness of that player to play for BS. if AA really hold the nation @ he could have made a better selection in Brazil in the first place we all know very well that BS is the only way he earns his fAt check likewise Nyatekyie but being patriotic has noting to do with tears in fact i would call it gimmicks or kalika tears. fool come up with a better plan to invite the players than what you have stated.

  This is a useless and baseless criteria Mr. Minister. Why don't you suggest to the president to send soldiers to represent us since their duties mean dying for the nation already, instead of calling for hypocrisy at a world or any other tournaments. Mr. President, watch this minister and his likes (he is an idiot).

  How many of the Ministers including yourself, the many gov't oficials and MPs earned their positions by crying when The National Anthem was played? This is an indication that from the get-goyou hsve lost it on criteia for invitation to the team. Must one necessarily shed tears to show love and commitment? Come on Mr.Minister. This isn't how you must make the news. Just rubbish.
