Mahama is a joker.What a Mahama we have. This Bole Mahama is a joker=clueless=confuse=calamitous. In this day and age you defend clear violation of our own laws by BOG???????? Your counterpart President in Brazil, a woman is not allowing the Blackstars to violate their contry laws on transfer of cash from Brazil. She is getting a cool $17,000 per player on their $100,000 your illegally transfer from the shores of Ghana to Brazil. The so called young and youthful president did not consel his young Blackstars to accept cash electronically. What is shocking to most young men in Ghana and across the world is that this a president who uses ipad, tablet,facebook,twitter,viber,wahtsap,email outlook, Skype and other social meia to communicate to the young generation. Mahama is a ridicule and a laughing stock as the world was shock to hear that Ghana was lifting $3m in a chartered plane (Ibrahim Mahama plane of course) to Brazil for Blackstar appearance fees.

I learnt about this taxation episode by the Brazilians authorities on Friday which wasn't a surprise to me. First of all, Mr. Mahama and his governemt are so fools to move ($3 million)in cash to a foreign country to pay its citizens. The cost involved in this exercise can build at least 2-Senior High Schools with the state-of-the art IT Equipments. The players were not there as hostages whose lifes were in danger to accord such move by the government.
Mr. Mahama and his government infringed the global monetary policy set in place about movement of money by any individual. Most countries have adopted this policy by allowing travellers to carry with them only $10,000.00. The Sports Ministry and GFA could have worked a plan with the players prior to their departure by collecting their Bank Accounts and making either direct deposit to those who have accounts in Ghana and make wire-transfer for those who have overseas accounts and making the appropriate tax deductions.
The Brazilian Immigration is of good heart to allow them the $20K quota and as far as the payment was made in Brazil, they will pay taxes on it unless FIFA and Ghana Government intervene on their behalf. What a stupid and irresponsible government that people created of ignorance have voted to impose on people created of goodness. E&OE.

I do not blame the Black Star Players because they are all NAIVE and uneducated with difficulty to apply their natural knowledge except how to play football.
Playing football for Ghana at the world stage is an ambassadorial and privileged position.
The Govenment of Ghana with advice from the Finance Minister should have known the consequences of airlifting $3.8m to pay the players in Brazil. Mr. Seth TEKPER is himself a TAX EXPERT but I strongly believe that his advice was over-ruled by his colleagues.
In the eyes of the entire world Ghanaians are very stupid, but in reality this is not so: In fact I am not.
Go and tell President Mugabe of Zimbabwe to airlift $3.8m to pay his players in Brazil and listen to what he will tel you.
Why oh why Ghana! (E& OE)

The black Stars were fighting on a point of principle. They will probably donate most of the money to charity anyway. Most of them earn more in a week than the money they got.

Blame the greedy corrupt officials including the Mumu coach. FIFA provides 8million dollars to each team for the group stage. It is not the Ghana gov't money. It is not for balancing their budget. In any case, did it occur to the so-called authorities that the money could have been wired into the accounts of these players. Everybody knows Muntari and Boateng don't need that 100,ooo dollars from Ghana gov't. How else could the less fortunate ones have been paid if somebody did not act.
If only our corrupt, greedy clueless bastards of leaders had just kept it simple.

Ghanaians most pple are ingorant and don't know what was going on with the players apparence fees. this money they didn't rob ghana for nothing. this is money due to the players by fifa regulations. fifa gave each qualified country into the world cup $8million i stand to be corrected, it was money from fifa not money from ghanagovernment's treasury. like other pple have commented on, the gfa officals are all greedy and corrupt, the players share would have been electronically deposited into their various individauls accounts but since the so called gfa offcials had their plans, all these big fools decided to airlift the physical cash to Brazil in this morden dispensation. what a shame and stupid decision.
