Osei Kofi, who won the 1963 Africa Cup of Nations, added that the FA always gives an envelope full of dollars to anyone who is appointed to the Ministry which he has seen.
“I work at the Ministry so I know what goes on there. What the FA does is that whenever any new minister is appointed, the FA bribes them with a big envelope full of dollars.’’

“Ten ministers have been reshuffled from the Sports Ministry all because the GFA corrupted them. The last Minister was Mahama Ayariga who came and subsequently bought a team. Where did he get the money from?’’ He quizzed
