So it is ok for a whole president to go begging a yet-to-prove-himself player who walked out on the coach of the national team and would not make himself available unless his first-team selection is guaranteed? What priority!
The same like Owusu Bempa.Don´t forget when Asamoah and his brother Bafour was intended to boycott 2008 Afcon in Ghana, Ex Prez Kufour was at hotel to persuade them to stay and continue their duty.Did anybody comment about i ...

What shows that what Bempa said was a tribal remark? Mohammed understood it in that way and he is trying to let you know that it is a tribal comment. Mohammed is speculating and he is the one being tribalistic. I hope you kno ...

It is so clear Amin Mohammed, your article is cheap, and it is a means of seeking favours from both the President and the Ayews. People like you bring shame upon journalism with your stomach articles.

U the asantes should be very careful of what u want to bring in Mother GHANA
brillient piece of advice to Bempa.
I hope he would come out to apologise.
Its a big shame.
May be the president of Ghana is not fit to be our president but rather GFA boss.
Yes, Owusu Bempah, this is a very bad PR job you did for whoever you are representing. Shame on you.
you also need to be ashame of yourself,is better we put stop to that act it will have bad influence on us one day in future

owusu bemba is a big fool and a disgrace to ashantis
I think we all not getting the point Bempah is making due to the individual differences. However, let's be careful in what we write and try to digest what both Bempah and Mohammed are saying. Even though writers use titles to ...

How long can the country entertain players who dictate how and when they would want to play for their nation, Ghana? An answer to this will put to rest all this noise about what Owusu Bempa said or did not say.
Mr Agyaaku,you are equally stupid and dump like Owusu-Bempa.All you do is spewing hatred and tribalism in the country.How can he possibly say that the President talking to the Ayews is negotiating with terrorist.He should be ...

This is a stupid rejoinder. Even Pele of Brazil was never guaranteed play times
People are jeolous of the Ayews bcos they are successful. No mater how u insult them they will always be there to hunt your emotions because God blessed them with talent and there is nothing useless people can do about it.
Amin Lamptey is a muslim fundamentalist who has a soft spot for terrorists and terror group and is therefore very uncomfortable when the words 'terrorists' and 'terrorism' are mentioned. After all our elders say that it is on ...

i think Owusu Bempa should try as much as possible to differentiate between football and politics and render an apology to Ghanaian for using the word TERRORIST .

We need institutions to work so let's allow the institutions to work besides not even Messi can detect the pace at which he plays. This is bad precedence....
Amin you sound rather like a hired advocate... Your rationalization of Jordan's attitude and so-called 'ambition' is far fetched and altogether untenable... Please come again.
MR Amin, thanks. We the good people of Ghana are aware of the Hippocrates and nation breakers, may the truth always be said. my guy, i salute you.
I fully agree w/owusu-bempa. though those players among the best we have currently they shdn't b pampered as if they're demi-gods.
In fact,mohammed amin's article's tainted w/2 much personal attack on owusu-bempah.in any case y did prez wait until da 11th hour? y didn't he invite essien? amin's sayin' relationship b/n da prez n abedi dates back 2 tamale ...
