Foolish talk,so he should keep quiet. What was written in his contract? That's why Ghana isn't progressing.

If you are man enough go and sack C.K. Akonor, he just said he is interested in the Kotoko coaching job. But leave Kenichi alone. We love him.

Okraku should keep silence and go and apologise to the coach Kenichi. He is not a Ghanaian teachers or local coach to live without pay.
Pay him at once and apologise to him as well. With that Silly comment from you (Okraku), saying I will sack him. Your mother……….. Your mother again

What a CEO. A coach complaints about his players and technical bench staff not being paid for two months and all you can say is that he should be sacked. What kind of arrogance is that.

This is the system that we function in the culture of corruption nobody is immune. Even those that u would think are smarter they will disappoint u. I'm so disappointed in Okraku.

Dreams FC Executive Chairman Kurt Okraku's statements are indicative of the state of affairs in the country. Hearts coach Kenichi Yatsuhashi took to Facebook to voice his displeasure for not being paid for two months and for that Okraku would have terminated his contract. In case he has forgotten, the coach is from the US, where expressing one's opinion is encouraged and was just being who he is. In case Okraku isn't aware, nowhere in the world, perhaps except Ghana, will anyone work and not get paid for two months. Failure to pay the coach's salary is in itself a violation of contractual terms. The coach could have sued Hearts and left the job, but chose to stay on. If Hearts have no problems with the coach's public statement, why should Okraku care?

I don't think your dirty a### and filthy mouth can and will work for free. To say that nobody knew him before hearts hired him is so childish and silly. His parents and friends knew him haha. Hearts heard of him before they hired him. As an so called administrator, I was expecting you to advocate for him to be paid. Your dirty ass would not work for free .

When a coach is not happy, his players notice it and are not happy too and cannot perform. Okraku must be crazy to wade into a Hearts internal matter. He should sack his coach on Sunday when Kotoko smash them 3 nil.

Hearts Coach is right to complain,how can the Players and staff stave? How can they win on empty stomach and gari while the Management bank 200,000 GHC as gate fee? Where is the Money going? Reason Ghana is the way it is due to her bad leaders,they are very corrupt and power drunkness.
If he the Coach was nobody,why did you employ him in the first place,but he`s got the Job done.
He`s nobody so you can take Advantage over him. Think before you go public with your BULLSHIT.
IS Okraku in FA? see how is FA rotten,and the whole of Ghana too.
Under People like you in leadertship we getting nowhere,and Ghanaians are too afraid,reason leadership take previlage over them,is about time they are Bold like Hearts Coach to expose them...
