Waaoooow. The English have really eulogized him. Unfortunately the koo darkie is not in a position to appreciate such things. To find a way into a dictionary is a very positive thing. Great news.

Tony Yeboah eulogized by UK. The first thing that came to my mind is death. There is no mention of Tony Yeboah dying in the article. Is he dead, did I miss the news, when did he die? Please tell me it ain't so and that the word has other meanings.

And Tony, his exploits at Leeds notwithstanding was no playing for Leeds in 1995! What an incompetent journalist and rag

But essentially eulogy is a speech or writing in praise of a person or thing, especially a set oration in honour of deceased person.

Etymologically, eulogy means to speak well of.

So Tony Yeboah was being commended. What was written about the great footballer doesn't mean he has kicked the bucket.

As a second language to King Lomotey, correcting someone language makes English person laughs.
EULOGISE according to Oxford English Dictionary means to praise someone not necessarily deceased but King Lomotey's class of Ghanaians who learn from the Church Programmes and Literary books connect it to the deceased.As such, miseducation in Ghana is widespread. I choose IMMORTALISED YEBOAH and eye brows raised.
I chose or 'COME NOT TO PRAISE HIM BUT TO.. advise YEBOAH to visit BLACK STAR training sesions, Camps, tournaments, matches to INSPIRE our boys adding to his business acumen, the glories bestowed on Ghanaians besides STOMACH POLITICIANS.

I have always maintained that he is the best we have ever had. The only thing is that others beat him at PR and Media relations. Have noticed that in Ghana the media hardly mention him. That is Ghana. We are always throwing good guys away because if we recognize them vothers will not have their way. To be a captain of a German team is no mean acheivement.

In Ghana journalist take money before they write about you (they have a name for that - I have forgotten). There is no fair and honest journalism in Ghana. If you want to be in the news you must pay for it. Decadence is the order of things in Ghana. It is all about money, even voters get paid to vote one way or the other.

English Language is important in journalism so please take it seriously if writing is truly your day job.
Caption should read "......IN THE UK" Secondly, the word Eulogise is used for the dead.
