nyantekyi is a thief!
OR BE PREPARED TO TAKE A BULLET. THE CULTURE AT THE GFA MUST CHANGE AND IT WILL NEVER CHANGE AS LONG AS HE REMAINS. EVEN BLATTER HAS RESIGNED. WO MAAME TW3!
Jon Benjamin is a twerp.
Who does he think he is meddling in our domestic affairs.
He would be best advised to shut up and go back whence he came!!
First you should determine for yourself whether what he is saying is true or not. If you did not say that but proceeded to condemn him, then you are the twerp. It does not matter where he comes from, if he is genuinely tellin ...

Have you people asked who takes the money from Fifa? I am positive its the government and not the FA. I stand to be corrected though. The BHC should get his facts right before attacking the FA.
Nyantakyi caused the arrest of his friend/business partner for defaulting on a 600,000 dollar loan he claims to have extended to his friend shortly after Brazil. Does it not bother you how he got the money from as a ghana ...

Some of the biggest differences between black and white is our leaders.jack our African leaders don't reason oooh.iam not disrespecting blacks but our investments as blacks are always towards a single persons pocket.

The Almighty White Man Has Spoken. What are the 'people' going to do about this?
We still do better than england at the world cup. Focus on your own shit, Mr Commissioner. Should a high commisioner even be talking about the GFA and FIFA. What are you trying to do here?
