    This young chap is much smarter than the thief who calls himself Professor Dodoo. The lady never refused any scholarship but the crooks who failed in their bid to dupe her decided to put the blame on her, just like Nyantakyi ...

    Massa we all know you are the manager. Your story does not add up. Recent interviews of other athletes who have gone through same process indicates you are liar and an opportunist. GOC and GAA have every incentive to make sur ...

    Who told you she does not want to go study abroad? The girl herself has denied that so why are blaming her? If you know the details of that scholarship, please state it here for all to see and stop your stupid comments. Don't ...

    What scholarship details do you want to know? If you are not assisting the girl set back, you will rather tell her to take the scholarship first then if the content isn't the way she wants it, she can drop it. Nobody can forc ...

    Bissah I share your views. I consider this girl to be very primitive to say she was going to think about it first.How special was she ?

    Where are her parents. Please take control and direct her. Her managers are really messing things up.

  • OSEI TAWIAH 9 years ago

    If Professor Dodoo was that honest, why would Martha's mother complain of him trying to dupe the family? Who is trying to spoil the future of your sister? Do you think she is so stupid to reject a good offer for her future? D ...

    You have a big problem, I don't know if you have used scholarship before, if not, then tell the girl to take the scholarship first and read it to know the content or the details you are interested in.

  • OSEI TAWIAH 9 years ago

    You Ghanaians are more stupid than animals. The girl was not given any formal letter. She was only told this by word of mouth. What content are you talking about and how stupid can you guys be? Now tell me who has a problem, ...

    Good point

  • kwayeb74 9 years ago

    Be advised that community college is only 2 years duration. Ask for full university scholarship which might be more than 4 years depending how smart one will be. Take care.

  • Akwasi 9 years ago

    I believe the community college with "right program" is not bad at all. My son is "track and field" athlete, he started in community college about 2yrs ago, and right now he is a Olympics candidate. The problem is that most c ...

    Apply to division 1 university that has a proven success record in delivering track stars. You need competition to get better.

  • Butu 9 years ago

    It was explained in earlier post that the athlete has to academically qualify and meet other requirements before being able to compete at division 1. If the athlete does not qualify then he or she may have to go through Junio ...

    Martha, do not let your heart be broken. I will advise that you and your manager start to look for schools yourself. You will be surprised by the offers that will come your way.

    You can explain things much better than I do. I won't mind hiring you as my lawyer. Again thanks for speaking on behalf of the young lady. Let the crooks and their media outlets be exposed.

  • sulamana 9 years ago

    A community college is good. It will enable you to bring up your standard to varsity level so that you are successful in a four year degree program. Don't be like so many Ghanaian athletes who went to do degree courses when t ...

    I see you don't even understand the process. Athletes who go the junior college route are not sent that way because there are no NCAA D1 schools interested. Instead, it is the academic credentials of the incoming athlete that ...

    What did the GAA offer the young athlete? If you think you do know, lay it bare for all to see so that we can close this issue once and for all.

  • OSEI TAWIAH 9 years ago

    You've proved my point. No further comments.

  • Boss 9 years ago

    What an idiot. What is the point proven. If she has the grades to qualify for a top univ, why not help her with her applications. A lot of Olympic athletes have been made through community colleges.

    My friend, which village do you come from? This girl was offered the opportunity, whether by writing or by mouth does not matter at all. She should have asked more about it and then finally decide if she wants to take it. She ...

    Don't accept Mahama's serpent offerings. It is a curse. Rely on any clean opportunity that do not come as a poisoned gifty. There are many. Mahama is a curse !
