I might need to go and study 'some more' English at school, again. This article is just 'funny'. Everything is mixed up, and I don't understand it that much.
Oh Ghanaian journalists ... And EDITORS ...

What the hell is wrong with some writers!!! Is this news or what? Or is it a calculated attempt to start confusion between Essien and the GFA? Only the writer of the story knows.

1. Blatter and his gang have to give approval for simple customs like a minute's silence and remembrance symbols like black arm-bands?

They think local FAs cannot determine the appropriateness of such symbolism?

2. I think it's a good article, in the sense that it brings to light the FA's omission (or perhaps negligence?).

It should send an apology letter to Essien, OR do it before our next game.

If we did it for Amamoo, Annan, Boye, Gyan, Vorsah and others, why not for Essien?

Lies, Essien's father never played football let alone Hearts of Oak. Don't mistake Micheal Essien father with the one who played Hearts of oak in the late 1970's and the mid 1980's he is known as John Essien alias Zion train and Michael' dad was called Kwesi Badu Essien. Don't confuse the two. What is this article seeking to achieve?

I remember John ESHUN (Eleven Wise), and later, the same person (Hasaacas), whom I do not remember playing for Hearts.

There was a John ESSIEN who played for Hearts??

Thank you.
My research, after your feedback, tells me that John ESSIEN was actually on the Afcon-Cup-winning team in Tripoli in '82.
