$8000 is too much.Government must slash is to $5000.Any player who doesn't like the $5000 winning bonus, can leave camp.The players are ungrateful ingrates. They can boycott the tournament if they want to.
Are you serious 8000 is too much??? and you pray they don't make it to the next round. I also pray if they make it you go mad and state walking the street wherever you are. Why not for once think positive for the nation. Do y ...

Dude are you serious? You claim you're in the state. Check how much money the weak US team makes a year and compare it to what the black stars make a year from the nation.
For yrs afcon trophy has eluded gh. Yet, we continue to throw more and more money, cars, even pussy at these useless players. What return on investment has such behaviors produced? Nothing! Yet, this old fool says give them m ...

Why didn't Yaw Boateng Gyan make this suggestion to his government when the rogue Minister Nii Lante was in charge? Did he fear him? We don't need your interference in that ministry so I suggest you get lost. Onaaapo!

The government should concentrate on fixing the economy and give the blackstars a reasonable amount for the bonus. The bonus shouldn't go beyond $5000.00, which I even consider it to be a little too much. His Excellency Nana ...

Yaw gyan pls you should be careful the way you sometimes talk as if you haven't got common sense why didn't you pay the money when you were in power
Ghana must pay it's sportsmen and women what it can afford. Clearly the $10,000 in foreign currency is unaffordable.
I'm already missing Nii Lante. Wish nana can maintain him to check the FA. what's so important about the African cup that we spend so much money trying to win? With a corrupt FA, even winning the WC wouldn't be of any benefit ...

Maintain who? Nii lamptey! This stupid fool who made fun of Nana by saying we don't need short man as president?
First of all how much is paid by CAF to
the nations at every stage of the tournament. When we know then we can make informed discussion on winning bonuses.
This Boateng man is most stupid man in the NDC party. Nana should rather jail him
Since when the money was slashed by the NDC and now you are pleading for increase ?
i live to see a day government will say paying ex-gratia is not affordable.when it concerns politicians theres money to pay but with doctors,teachers,nurses,athletes then its not affordable.
See how much salary increase the MP's vote for each year and some don't even do the job they suppose to do. When it comes to other civil servant and public servant like doctors and teachers, there is no money but there money ...

What is this man saying now? Was it NPP government who reduced the overall budget presented by the F A meant for AFCON 2017. I think the defeat of your has sent you still sleeping.
Look at this hypocrite, whom is he referring to pay for bonus for black stars. Why did he not tell Mahama to pay
How much did your NDC leave for the new administration?
Why didn't say this when ndc was in government. Go away you jackass
It is bcos of this money consciousness thats why we can never win a cup. Previous cups were won through patriotism and dedication to duty.

Why didn't you guys do it before leaving office.....shame !!!!!!!!
You must be a fool if U are expecting different results. We need a new coach, bring back AA and hire Stepjen Appiah to assist him.
Did your NDC govt leave any money for the restoration of the $10,000 bonus? You should have proposed this to Vanderpuje.
HONORABLE, WHY NOW NOT YOUR TIME.YOU WERE SILENCE WHEN THE FIGURE WAS REDUCED WHEN NDC WAS DESTROYING THE BLACKSTARS YOU DID NOT SAY ANYTHING, WHY ARE TALKING NOW??? DO YOU LOVE GHANA FOOTBALL? OR......
Yaw,you should have told the sports minister who is a member of your party then.
Why are you now making this this suggestion to a new government?
You are indeed a hypocrite!
is that your contribution for the country after many years ?

I hope you could see our economy is in bad shape.
It doesn't take money to win the afcon but quality team and determination.
we paid more in the previous tournaments but we didn't win.
8000 dollars is not bad after all.
such wicked man who doesn't think of the younger generation. when pupils don't have textbooks to read u're not thinking of that. who told u winning the AFCON is our priority? rasclat!!
IS THIS MAN STILL ALIVE? YOUR NDC WAS UNABLE TO PAY THE BLACK QUEENS TILL NOW. WE HAVE LOCAL PLAYERS WHO ARE WILLING TO SACRIFICE, ONLY TO BE FAMOUS.IDIOT!
This man is.not serious.
They are playing for the glory of the nation.we don't have to pay them $10000 or $5000 they all have teams that they play for yes they will be pay for not $10000
With clueless and unintelligent "leaders" like Yaw Boateng Gyan, no wonder the NDC was disgraced and humiliated at the polls. With such shallow mindset, they flew millions of dollars to these over-pampered players in Brazil a ...

The black stars should be considered for the $10000 winning bonuses based on two conditions: 1. Availabilty of funds. 2. If they win the afcon.
Those ghanaian players who won the africa cup of nations for Ghana did it almost for nothing.8000.00 dollars is being paid to the players and they are not happy with it.They can go to hell.Period!!!
Reward the stars if they win the trophy otherwise let them just play for honour. Change has come and there should be no more sika die bass bass.
Nonsense. Does these stupid players deserve this amount? Gyimigyimi. Kwasia kwa. Your nose like Akrobeto. Wu papa hufee se ab3b3. Odwan.
To me New government need to be very careful for this black stars bonus issue, l don't think the black stars deserve 10.000 dollars for winning bonus. Reduce to 5.000 dollars, or let them stop going to Gabon.
Will thug yaw boateng shut his mouth up, where was he when nee the thug was messing up the team.boateng gyan should better adivce k.p.b.to respect our local coaches.

There's one thing you guys are missing, Yaw Boateng Gyan is a member of the black stars management committee, he stands to gain when the bonus is increased since They(management committee) take the same money as the players
If it was about money then the Black Star should already win the AFCON when we were giving them more than 10, 000. It's all about the psychology of the players. Wake up old man.
Bro talk sense and stop calling for increment.
You Tube: This Prince can Dance. Yes! He can (The Richest African Prince)
The simple solution is for the government to cut the FA loose. Been saying this for years. If at that point the FA wishes to pay $100.00 or $100, 000 bonuses then that will be their call. This one way dependency hasn't helped ...

Stupid fools
The winners of the AFCON CUP will take home $4 million. Shouldn't that be motivation enough for the Black Stars? They should go for $4m rather than the $8-10 thousand bonuses.
I think we have to pay them in cedes instead of dollars, it have to 8 to 10 thousand ghana cedis.
USELESS BLACK STARS, I PRAY THEY DON'T WIN NO MATCH SO GHANA CAN SAVE MONEY FOR BETTER THINGS.
