Below is what led to the brawl.

Sulley: WHAT IS THE USE OF SOO MANY G.F.A OFFICIALS & OTHERS HERE? You Are Basically Non-Essential and have no role or duties here. Your Number even dwarf that of the players... You receive Bonuses for no work done. You are a drain on the Govt.... You always make money on our back and you see every Tournament as a means to make money.... And You Have The Vim to question us why we want our money?

Moses Armah: Your money will come take time, the captain is speaking….

Sulley: Shut up, are you the one paying the money or you are the Prez?

Moses Armah: I won’t allow you to include me in your list of victims oo…..I'm a gangster more than you.

Sulley: So you can fight me eh (moving towards Moses’ direction disentangling himself from other guys retraining him).

Moses Armah: Am ready for you. You think i'm a coward?

Sulley: (picks a bottle and drop it, surprisingly jumps and slaps Moses) Fuck you!!

Moses: Returns the slap with a blow lifts a fork…and Jonathan Mensah holds Moses’ hand up.

Essien sits quietly, Gyan and Appiah speak Ga to Sulley, calming him down as Moses is whisked away by Saban Quaye

Mr.PhD,
I should say it is wonderful you have ample and likely plausible information regarding our Black Stars, but as a Ghanaian, and as a PhD, DO WELL TO REPRESENT MORE EFFECTIVELY/GRAMMATICALLY CORRECTLY NEXT TIME. And please do not overlook your punctuation either, thank you!

Ghana has no region called Asante Region; we've Ashanti Region. Even if the two words mean the same thing, the People of the Republic of Ghana chose ASHANTI for the region.

To the best of my limited knowledge, the people whose king is Otumfuo are the Asantes. Thus, naming that region as Asante Region would have created a false impression that the place is for only Asantes. In reality, Otumfuo's Kingdom goes beyond the boundaries of Ashanti Region.

Thus, Ashanti Region demarcates a politically administered place and should not be confused with Asantes who are the aborigines of that place.

Careless or deliberate misuse of such words is what is resulting in the Ga people wanting Greater Accra to be renamed as Ga Region, Fantes in Cape Coast want Central Region be renamed Oguaa Region, Dagombas in Tamale wants Northern Region be renamed Dagbon Region and what have you.

We refuse to accept such ethnocentrism.

One Ghana, One people. I'm uninterested in politically divisive argument but respect your views herein expressed.

THE SPIRIT OF JUNE 4TH 1979 REVOLUTION IS TOTALLY DEAD BECAUSE MAHAMA LED NDC HAS LOOTED THE COFFERS OF THE NATION. NOW IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE BLOOD OF GEN. I. K. ACHAMPONG AND THE OTHERS WHO WERE EXECUTED ARE INNOCENT.

Banana Republic of Ghana is a moron nation so any moron can be a president. John Mahama did not even qualify to be a football manager let alone to be come a president of a sovereign nation but what do we see now? God choose David to led his people not because he was handsome but becuase he was able to protect his flocks without any harm from the predators. Any time i hear about SUBA, GYEEDA,WOYOMI,JUDGEMENT DEBTS ETC,my heart breed for Ghana, i asked myself do dark skin people in Afrika and Ghana at large reason and think well? Any time i hear ghanaians bragging about their education status quo i just laugh, the dark skin people problem is not about education but is about thinking and reasoning, this is what we lack as people. Japanese and South koreans developed their nation without resources, how about Ghanaians everything is in our disposal but foreigners and our few corrupt people are taking it and the rest of the people are in abject poverty. What is impeding us not to develop our nation? At this time and age we don't even know how to manufacture some simple things for domestic consunption, what is our purpose on this earth? Are we here as participators or commentators? Upon all our degrees we at the bottom pit in the world. Sleeping dogs when are we going to wake up to catch up with the world? Do God created dark skin people i really doubt it, Our intelligent level is too low and it's a fact take it or leave it, how can a president pay interest to a loan he never get the money he opted for? This can happened only in Afrika Ghana to be precise where corruption, stupidy, foolishness, greedy, selfish is their culture. Mahama who can not even rear five cows is now a president of Ghana it's a lesson for everyone.

Fellow me if you can be put all the burdens behind.

"Banana Republic of Ghana is a moron nation so any moron can be a president."

Now, since any moron can be a president to this Banana Republic, then Kufuor was a moron as well and Mr. All-Die-Be-Die who is desperately seeking to be the next president would be another moron in waiting, abi? Another fertile ground has been created for Okoampa to route-in his diabolic agenda and opportunity can not be any more better than this, huh?

Naked, I just wanna say, good job! You've said it all! I also always ask myself whether Ghanaian leaders have the same brain that some of us have or they have that of goat's brain? How can a whole thinking president behave this way? Moving the alleged most corrupt minister- Elvis A Ankrah and his dummy deputy to another equally important posts! How on earth, will a right thinking person do that? My heart bleeds for Ghana!

Dr Kwame, while I don't fault you for having some allegiance to the US where you've lived for more than half of your life, I begrudge you for failing to realize that "nature has implanted in your breast a sacred and indissoluble attachment towards that country whence you derived your birth and infant nurture". A win for the Black Stars would never have been reported as a win for the NDC. Indeed, that team was always referred to as Ghana. As in the military one salutes the insignia and not the person over whose shoulder it's displayed, support for Ghana should not be dependent on whether it's the fox or the wolf who does his pilfering from the Castle at Osu.
By deciding to "throw my full-heft behind Team-USA." over Ghana, you explicitly disavowed the country, and implicitly severed that sacred attachment towards that country of your birth and infant nurture. More Okoampish-speaking, you've thrown the baby out with the bath water. That is never prudent, but rather an impulsive quirk.
Ghanaians are forever forgiving, and it's never too late to say "I'm sorry"
