I hope that this drug tests (which I fully support) is not only limited to the African players but to all countries participating in the World Cup. FIFA has a funny way of targeting and discriminating against the African teams. Well, we wont stand for that any longer and will protest vehemently should there be any sign of these drugs tests being only limited to certain countries. All should mean exactly all players

If it really true that such test would be conducted then it is must be done seriously without favoritism. Else we the African participants will protest vehemently. It should be transparent for no one is above the law.

Is wee not part of illegal drugs? You sef.
Vod is vod, but it is legal.

One would think right away that it is only the Ghana squad that will be tested. Why not write: "World cup players to be drug tested"? Or something like that.

I am surprised Kotoko goalkeeper was involved in bribery scandal. Are these Players serious at all. Do they normally consider ardent supporters of the Team?. How can we give our hearts, energy and sometimes money to the team you like most and later disappoint us .This is really pathetic. Kotoko Players ought to be serious . Our BP is going high. Please Otumfuo you are our last resort react to this problem for it is becoming too much.

Please let us learn to accept defeat in good faith and stop giving excuses for our failures. If they bribed the poor goalkeeper, what about the strikers, did they score goals and the referee refused to accept them ?.

how can Fifa test 736 players in such a short time. the tests take time and mine you they would be looking for particular performance enhancements which could be found in some otc medications like in Toure's situation (taking his wife's cough medicine) lead him to fail a drug test.

GFA should should also be doing it's own drug test to weed out any cheats if any. What we do not want is to have players who make the squad disqualified at the last moment. That would throw the team preparation and possibly strategy off balance. It would be a huge shame should such a thing happen as there are a number of players who can fill in for any drug cheat. The key is a team preparing together with no nasty surprises, and we do not want any nation heart ache at the last moment.

Leave FIFA to be biased if they want ...we need to guard our interest. They can target us as much as they like. Just remind the players what medicines they can take and what they cannot take - in fact in the lead up to the competition ideally no player should take ANY medicine without the knowledge of the medical team. And, definitely no drugs.

US TEAM should also be tested for any kind of energy boosters and food supplements.
Can we get neutral persons to do the testing?
