    This cannot be true because a pay of $ 100,000 cannot settle $ 100,000 loan. Loans attract interest. Nobody who is expecting $ 100,000 in three weeks time will go for a loan of same amount that will attract interest. Moreover ...

    Your logic does not hold! Apart from the appearance fee, they were to earn bonuses which could easily have covered the interests! Though most of them are earning good for Ghanaian standards, their pays are not all that hugh! ...

    The bottom line is that a greedy bastard like you and the other wolves stole their money. Period. What about the other corrupt and adulterous immoral issues raised. Come again

    That's a full-bloody blatant lie. With the exception of the 3 local players in the squad, the rest were professional players already making millions of dollars a year in abroad. What was the kind of emergency that would compe ...

    Another loose talk. Ghana ministers need further education.

    How does that matter today? If the players' monies were paid as promised there would have been no agitations. In all these, it was John and Ibrahim Mahama who were winners. Ibrahim Mahama provided the aircraft at a cost of $1 ...

    THAT BOOK WILL BE PACKED WITH HALF-TRUTHS AND LIES.

    MARK MY WORDS!!

    ELVIS AFIRIYIE ANKRAH IS ONE OF THE RICHEST PEOPLE IN GHANA.

    WHERE DID HE GET ALL THAT MONEY FROM AT THIS AGE?

  • Ritewing 8 years ago

  • joe 8 years ago

    It's very foolish to be saying this at this time.Are the player bigger than you. They saw what you and your greedy big men were doing. Who should work for you to enjoy.Elvis keep quite because you are speaking foolish

    It doesn't matter if they took a loan, you were supposed to pay the players and you didn't, that is why there was a revolt. Stop trying to divert attention away from your failures at the World Cup.

    GFA always cheat on players bcos they want to wear the national jersey. They were wiser and smarter this time than the GFA. Why should appearance fee still be kept after the second game? Rem, the players are very rich individ ...

  • Neutral Zone 8 years ago

    Taking a loan from a private bank is their personal business. Trying to cheat them from their allowance is what u gov't officials and GFA do. Shame on u for thinking u now have a story to justify ur trying to cheat the player ...
