Ghanaian footballers have tried some surprising careers after their playing days. Reports of some venturing into selling second-hand clothes and others managing public toilets are quite known.
Ghanaian forward Kevin-Prince Boateng, who is still playing actively has ventured into the world of music and has released his first rap video titled “King”.
Former UK Ambassador to Ghana, Jon Benjamin, never saw eye to eye with the GFA during his time in Ghana as he passed some comments to the tune of how corrupt the institution was.
As with most Ghanaians who saw the GFA for what it actually was – a cesspool of pay to play enriching the ‘big men’ and leaving Ghana football to deteriorate – he was eventually proven right.
The effects of the aftermath of the Anas’ number 12 expose continues to unfold. After FIFA recently wrote to the Government of Ghana threatening it with a ban, the president Akuffo-Addo led government has through a leaked letter Ghanacelebrities.com intercepted responded to the world’s football governing body.
The Government of Ghana in the leaked letter to respond to threats by world football governing body, FIFA is asking for further engagement in order to resolve the impasse.
FIFA has through a statement released yesterday August 13, 2018 warned that it may ban Ghana from international football if the Attorney-General’s petition to start the liquidation process of the Ghana FA is not withdrawn from the court by August 27, 2018.
This directive was stated in the letter sent to the Liaison Team charged with running Ghana football in the interim as reforms take place in the aftermath of the Anas number 12 expose.
Former FAZ President, Kalusha Bwalya has been banned for two years by world soccer governing body FIFA.
Bwalya has been banned for his role in the Qatar 2022 bribe scandal where he pocketed US$80, 000.
Fighting corruption in Ghana is a very tiring job.
The rich and powerful are mostly corrupt and any attempt by someone like Anas to burst their bubble would be fought off with all the immense resources they command.
In the aftermath of Anas Aremeyaw Anas’ exposé into Ghana football which exposed the seedy underbelly of the game we all love, former FA boss Kwesi Nyantakyi is the one who has borne most of the consequences.
Nyantakyi has lost positions at the GFA, WAFU, CAF and Fifa and he’s still under investigation by local authorities.
Former GFA Presidet Kwesi Nyantakyi is said to have seriously contemplated suicide following the release of Anas’ bombshell exposé, ‘Number 12’.
A close confidant of the disgraced football executive has revealed that Nyantakyi expressed a desire to ‘end it all’, implying taking his life, but stopped due to his children.
Rev Isaac Owusu Bempah, founder and leader of the Glorious Word and Power Ministry, has lambasted Anas as a trickster who traps people in his videos.
Bempah, a well known advocate of the ruling NPP and unsurprisingly towing the Kennedy Agyapong line, claims Nyantakyi and most of those in the video did no wrong since they did not ask for money from Anas.
It looks like Anas’ expose’ won’t get to anywhere as it has turned into some kind of jokes — today Anas is mocking Kwesi Nyantakyi with Shatta Wale’s “Taking Over” song, tomorrow he is trolling Kennedy Agyapong with Yaa Pono’s “Obia Wo Ne Master” — what sort of jokes are these?
The expose’ undoubtedly has caused havoc in the Ghana Football Association but as to whether it will get to the appropriate quarters for the right punishment to be meted out, remains a mystery.
Ghanaian Dancehall artiste, Shatta Wale is going ‘mad’ and you don’t need a rocket scientist to tell you — don’t say dude needs some attention hence his absurd behaviour, he is really losing it with his barbaric behaviour.
Talking of his recent leaked video where his dIck was been sucked by a lady, a loyal SM fan — obviously, the most intelligent fan amongst the bunch of idiotic SM fans out there has expressed worry concerning the current state of Shatta Wale.
GFA President Kwesi Nyantakyi has vehemently denied any wrongdoing in his most detailed response to Anas’ video yet.
In a lengthy statement addressing all matters arising from the video, Nyantakyi asserts his complete innocence, instead claiming Anas and his squad came in with an agenda to trap him and soil his reputation.
Kwesi Nyantakyi has taken the fight to Anas Aremeyaw Anas, denying he has committed any wrongdoing as detailed in the investigative journalist’s exposé.
The former FA President has however, levelled a counter accusation at Anas, echoing one Hon Kennedy Agyapong has dropped in recent weeks.
A deputy chief of staff at the Presidency, Francis Asenso-Boakye, has sued A Plus for defamation, asking for damages to the whopping tune of Ghc 20m.
In a suit filed at the high court in Accra Boakye argues that A Plus has soiled his reputation with constant claims of corruption against him.
An Accra High Court has placed a ten day, interim injunction on the activities of the Ghana Football Association (GFA).
The court’s judgement freezes any and all activities of the body which is currently in the crosshairs of government for being mired in graft.
