Another stupid ashanti man. Thank God kumasi is not the capital city of Ghana. If we put too many Ashanti people in political position, people from other tribes will become second or third class citizens.

I can see the name 'Ashanti' alone makes you shiver - and I can understand your situation: EXTREME INFERIORITY COMPLEX.

Bush people don't make me shiver. Thank God Kumasi will never become the capital city. Bush people are selfish and greedy.

WHY HIDE YOUR NAME. KNOW HISTORY AND YOU CAN UNDERSTAND WHAT'S CURRENT. LEARN TO BE RESPECTFUL AND TALK SENSIBLY. HOPE YOU WILL GO AND SEARCH FOR WISDOM FROM THE ASHANTI MAN.

Another Ashanti hater, a typical person with inferiority complex. Grow up and stop your backward behaviour. If your tribe is scared of being second or third class citizens then you must do something to help them than be envious of Ashantes. Kojo Bonsu's statement is childish but treat him as an individual and do lump all his tribesman togeher. I leave you with these words, "if you can't beat them, join them".

An ambitious program, but doable. But why 16 hotels when 8 sizeable ones will do. All the same good luck.

The matches will be played in the sixteen standatd hotels and not in stadiums. I did not hear him mention stadium faicilties and standard training pitches for the sixteen participating nations. Mr Mayor, where will the simultaneous round of group stage matches will be played, may be some at Prempeh college football field and others at KNUST football park, what a great idea on how to reduce the image of AFCON to the level of INTERCO which is where the Mayor borrowed the "excellent" idea from. Uh! How people get bereft of common sense when found in a position authority. No wonder he had to sell a whole Radio Station he invested in for lack of ideas to move it to compete with others. Why blame him cos he is counting on public money gamble with an unworkable idea. Same they with all aspect our lives experimenting with our destiny as a people. God save this nation Ghana.

If you can't think big as a person why insult, IN life u think big then you plan towards the big plan. Suame Magazine couldn't give us a car but Sarfo Kantanka is single handily coming out & all positive minded people are ready to buy to support instead of waisting time to criticize. Same way if this mayor can get the right support it can be done.
