    when Francis Dodoo sent his girlfriend
    to the London 2012 Olympic games as Team medical doctor where Ghana performed miserably, did disrespectful Dodoo find it ok?

    She failed to qualify. Why are u sending her there? Just to waste tax Payers money? Kwasia! Martha deserves nothing but an education and a scholarship overseas. So she can be the best she can possibly be as a person, a woman ...

    Why didn't Ghana qualify to complete with the world's best in China?

    Even Kenya and Jamaica, relatively poor and small countries, have the likes of Usain Bolt and others competing at the top level.

    This is what Ghana sh ...

    He should take the sack for overseeing the disgrace that transpired in China. Not even 1 gh athlete for world championships? Shouldn't the all african games came before the world championships anyway? African games would prep ...

    Hasn't Doodo contributed massively to the decline of Ghana sports, athletics as GAA president and other sports as president of GOC which is dead and buried. Doodo, go!

    Bissah was sabotaged by the powers that be within the GAA. At least in Ghana we know what is good for us. Most of those who have made it to the Alol African Games will return home empty. This time, the authority should place ...

    The real issue at stake shd be focused on and resolved well...but the threat of resignation is uncalled for

  • Athlete 8 years ago

    Why the threat to resign? The GAA president shd resign now! Was it not this same Dodoo then as athlete who led an aluta against past GAA executives for non-performance? Enough of this huu huu!!

  • Mensah Abrampa 8 years ago

    The young lady failed to qualify for the games so what's the bitching about? Instead they should put heads together to find lasting solutions to the decline in national athletics. It's just an unnecessary show of power that w ...

    This so called President should not threaten to resign, he should resign period. Worldwide it is not unusual to send budding and promising athletes to tournaments just to feel the atmosphere and the experience. The great Rona ...
