GFA HAS REFREES TO PAY, STADIUMS TO HIRE AND OTHER EXPENSES. IT IS THE JOB OF THE GOVERNMENT TO INVEST MONEY SUCH AS THE $250 MILLION GIVEN TO NIGERIANS FREELY BY SETH TEKPER IN INFRASTRUCTURE & YOUTH DEVELOPMENT. IN UK THE CENTRAL GOVERNMENT THROUGH THE COUNCILS PROVIDE SUCH FACILITIES. THE GFA LIKE THE ENGLISH FA HAS BUILT A SCHOOL OF EXCELLENCE IN PRAMPRAM. GOVT OF GHANA IS GIVING LANDS TO SYRIANS, NIGERIANS, GALAMSEY MEN & FULANI HERDSMEN

Ghanaian leaders are greedy they live above their means so this money is already shared amongst themselves before the ink is dry.
We have to find a way out of this blatant stealing.
