Courageous are loathed in Ghana. If u are a wimp and an ass kisser you're labeled respectful and cultured. But if u defy the status quo and question authority they call u arrogant and disrespectful. This is why foreigners are are running riot in the county with out consequences. Illegal mining being run by Chinese people as thy destroy our animals and forest and our lands. Fulani men are in the north and the Ashanti region destroying farmlands with their cattle and nobody is standing up to them. Nii lante Vanderpuje is standing up to one of the most corrupt organizations in the history of the country and people want his head. Ghana is such a shameful country full of cowards

SOME OF US HAVE LONG MAINTAINED THAT THE REASON NYANTAKYI AND HIS GFA/FA BANDITS DISTASTE NII SO MUCH IS BECAUSE HE SLASHED THEIR BONUS PAYMENTS. THE PLAYERS ARE ONLY A PAWN IN THIS GAME.
LOOK AT OUR NATIONAL STADIUM WHEN GFA/FA OFFICIALS ARE POCKETING $80-100,000 BONUS FOR THE WORLD CUP. THIS AFTER GETTING ALL EXPENSES PAID.
THE SAME GROUP POCKETS ABOUT $10,000 IN OTHER TOURNAMENTS. AND NYANTAKYI AND HIS CHI-WAWA, SAANIE DAARA HAVE THE NERVE TO SAY THE SPORTS MINISTER TALKS BY HEART!

Exactly, my point and that is the reason why after more than 5 decades of independence we are still stalling. We are still sleeping in darkness in the 21st century because there is no progression. They don't look at the young ones gifted with the knowledge and talents. Their full of greed and hate. Common sense has eluded these people. How do you spend money you don't have unnecessarily?. What is the point of flying foreign players when infact we don't need their services? This is an opportunity for Grant to give the local players a chance so he can at least do some assessment incase we have injuries in the important matches then we have backups with the local players. I feel sad for my motherland where lots of the people in power has no foresight and they will not allow the people with brains to do the job. If they can't fight you intellectually, they will use juju to destroy. What a pity! I believe Nii Lantey is very much aware of the atrocities committed by Nyantakyi, the little man with 4 eyes and his cohorts and he should challenge him with his so called decisions since he made himself a god at the FA and everyone does what he says. He thinks the FA belongs to his family in WA. I couldn't understand why we don't have anyone with "real balls" to face this 4 eyes rat from the north! Nii Lantey should have the support of Ghanaians to oust this rogue out than all these criticism. We all saw the corrupted Nyantakyi on a video camera trying to fix a match and he is still heading the FA. What does this say about the country?

Criticizing GFA or cleaning GFA can't do nothing but he rather has to concentrate on his party which is using all our money buying v8 for actors and chiefs then we can see the seriousness.

There is a thin line between cutting nyantakyi to size and keeping the black stars intact in terms of performance. The minister has every right to confront the corruption @ GFA but he shd b careful that we don't miss Russia 2018 or else the same people who are hailing him today will call for his head to be put on a spike. Nyantakyi maybe corrupt but we can't afford to destroy the black stars brand just to teach Kwesi a lesson

It will be good if we miss out on it. That GFA has being hiding under that to claiming they've been successful. Three world cups without anything to show for it. Even with all the money they get they still depend on the government poor tax payers money. With all that they still need money to pay plane ticket for players to travel. When u talk they say they'vequalified Ghana to three world cups. What have we gained from this world cups. Placing 15 and 8th and 32nd are achievement? And top of that squandering all the money given by Fifa then asking for more from the government? Ghanaians do not complain about and they'll criticize the minister because they're stupid and afraid f change

@adamu, if Ghana misses Russia 2018 and so what, will the world come to an end, when was it Ghana started appearing at the world cup that makes us believe we have bonafide right to be there always. Infact better footballing nations around the world miss big tournaments often and Ghana will not be an exception. The GFA must be cleaned even if it demands the Black Stars misses Russia 2018.

It is as simple as that. If nii loses the support of the department he heards or the blackstars players then i dont see why he must stay. Talk about misplaced priorities. Some one discovered messi. For a few years now it is clear we need strikers but when inheacho, eghalo, aubemeyangs etc.are scoring goals across africa no colts club have reasoned or found a way to breed a 30 goals a season striker yet knowing very well they stand to make money. The foriegn players that a section of ghanaians love to hate were once local boys. Tetteh is now foreign, soon dauda of kotoko will become foreign does that mean they will become object of hate or must be pushed aside for more local boys?

I remember once upon a time the most fearsome sports minister ever in the world E.T. Mensah never got this much hate in his erm erm 100yrs (gosh,was it 150yrs?) lol.
E.T mensah was so powerful he could have accidentally slashed the throat of Dr Dr Dr Numo J J Rawlings ( remember ET was his barber) that was how powerful the man was but he never slashed the bonuses of players even when he went to buy that 'push bulb' controlled score board ( when little Len Clay had video scoreboards that shows the game live) which could only write 'aben woha and dr panie ' nobody hated him. He knew what he was getting and made sure everyone also had their share. Nii Lante should give this man a call.
But is it in the name Vanderpuye? The other one at AMA was always in the news for all the wrong reasons (arrogance and showing 'where power lies'. who are those saying the local black stars should be made to play? Did they even qualify for the local cup of nations?

If this Nii Lante man is not stopped a day will come when he will say Ghana national team does not need a coach and technical handlers because all the players that get invited comes from teams that have competent coaches and they have been well train and so they won't need a coach to be able to play for Ghana.
And I know many commentators here will say he is so right looking at how much money will be saved.

When did nii submit a plan how to improve colts football, to make the game better, to address sponsorship pronlems across all levels including colt, for security at games and promoting and improving all other sports? I have not seen any plan yet. I wont hail people just because they are fighting everybody. It is lack of interpersonal or mangement skills. He has disgraced ghana big time with his recent antics. May be some in ghana dont see that but civilised people use method, process and science to solve problems not bullying. 2 bads dont make right

I sallute all who have the well being of Ghana soccer at heart. However, such people should be careful not to destroy our soccer all together. The tickets of the players should be at least paid for when their services are needed. Why should it be the individual players paying for their own ticket? Fair bonuses must also be given to the players. This will surely motivate the players to sacifice more for their country

THE IMPASSE BETWEEN THE SPORTS MINISTER & THE GFA.

Well I'm not surprised at all that some people seem to be supporting the sports minister, why not ? Even Donald trump has supporters !

There used to be widespread perception of corruption in the GFA - as a result of that, a presidential commission of enquiry was set up to probe the various allegations of financial malfeasance leveled against the GFA after Ghana's participation in the 2014 World Cup tournament in Brazil - that surely gave the government every opportunity to establish the veracity or otherwise of the claims of corruption against the GFA. However, after the commission's hearing ended, no single official of the GFA was indicted. Ironically, it turned out that the government's own representatives at the tournament (including the sports minister) were the one's cited for various forms of financial irregularities. So upon that basis, it's very strange that any sensible person would still have the nerves to tag the GFA with corruption.

This seeming loggerheads between the ministry and the GFA has only one repercussion, which is, Our flagship national team will continue to retrogress as long as this conceited sports minister who appears to be stoking the fire, is still left at post.

We failed to qualify for the under 20 championship due to this same impasse--- I envisage the worse for our national teams.

If Ghana is indeed broke; why do our ministers still receive their salaries for working for the nation? They should be seen to be showing leadership by sacrificing for the state !

No single nation in the world has monopoly over all sporting disciplines ; so there's need to prioritize --- Ghana's speciality is soccer - it's indeed the opiate of the masses -- Any government which toys with the destiny of our football , is certainly bound to attract the resentment of Ghanaians.

Why would any rational sports minister, without a malicious intent; decide to take up the job of the coach & suggest to the coach - which crop of players should be used for a particular game? Is he a minister or a coach ? This sort of attitude is most shameful!
