The Consulate General of the Ghana Mission in NY promised to send the money to appropriate quarters for the intended purpose of donating the cheque.

"The players should not be swallow headed but rather take the advice from the technical handlers and should not let the big names of the Brazilian side to put any fear in them and march them boot for boot, player by player and with much hope that at the end of the final whistle from the referee the Black Stars will have a suprise package by winning, Mr. Obeng Busia noted.
