This useless sanni darra guy continues to make lots and lots of noise. who do they think they are the entire FA. I am asking is there no solution of kicking these thieves out of the way of ghanaian football. I think the Ministry should initiate investigation against these bunch of fools at the FA who have corrupted the minds of these foreign based players that they can no longer play patriotically. Despite all the monies they make abroad they come to ghana and fight to ordinary coins. shameful acts to the highest levels. and who told them that we just want to go to AFCON or the world cup for the sake of it. if that is really the case then we just have to select a local side to represent ghana on these global stages so that they the local players could also make names for themselves since they will be in the position to be more patriotic then just thinking of the booty from Nyantakyi. Ghana rise up. Nii lamptey we are solidly behind your good policies. Black stars is not all that we have. what about the boxes, maiden, starlets etc. blackstars can go to hell.

Local players have had the opportunity to showcase their talents by engaging their equals on the continent. What did they achieve? Nii Lante is behaving like a vampire who sucks the blood of others but refuses to give back. He is now one of the richest politicians in the country. A case of 'rags to riches.' Tell your people to collect monies from Woyome, GYEEDA, SADA, ISOFOTON, SUBAH etc to be able to fund the team. He does not even know rating by FIFA affects our seeding in the future.

Whether we go or not we shall have the opportunity of watching the AfCON and the World cup live matches and see better players and better disciplined teams and better football.

Is the president aware of what is going on? He appointed the minister to this position, so if he is hearing of this misunderstanding between the GFA and the Sports ministry why does he not ask the chief od staff or the vice president to call a meeting and sort it out rather than the two sides washing their dirty linen in public. Or does he want to wait till Ghana is sanctioned by the AFC before he wakes up, and then fire the minister for incompetency and mismanagement. OH mother Ghana when shall we learn from our mistakes. Everyone wants to show the other person who has the power or who is in charge. Let us call the Council of State to intervene. That is all I can say for now.

Whether a deliberate sabotage or incompetence, the actions of the current sports minister since he took over office has been terrible. If care is not taken, this minister will cause Ghana a world cup disqualification. Today it is about he not bribing referees tomorrow it is about not buying tickets. What kind of a market place thuggery is this? Is this really a minister or a land guard?

Ah! Ghana Korea do we think at all. I mean, are we serious. Must we invite 21 foreign based players and pay $10, 000, as winning bonus for a team that can be beaten by WAFA? This Grant Korea, what has he added to our team. Can't he groom some players? What is he doing differently from Kwasi Appiah? Oh Africa! When shall we emancipate from mental slavery? Look, this is not Ndc or npp. This is pure common sense. I support the minister 1000%. Just look at the state of our nation; the extent of poverty. When was the last time since the Blackstars won something for us? Nonsense.

Nii Lantey is right, if Ghana has already qualified, why bring 21 foreign payers with plane ticket about 15,000 Ghana cedi for first class and 10,000 dollars for bonus. GFA is gradually been exposed with time.

You can choose to abandon the AFCON game completely. Who cares! The nation spends soooooo much on The Black Stars yet, we receive nothing in return. It's about time we invest in our local players. Experience my foot!
