Ghana Football Association President caught on video taking bribe.
An
incriminating documentary showing Ghana Football Association president
and other executives of Ghana FA taking bribe has been released by BBC.
In
the video, Ghana FA president Kwesi Nyantakyi is seen suggesting
lucrative deals to undercover journalists posing as “investors”. He
asked them to pay him $11 million to help grease the palms of key
government officials to secure contracts. Other Ghana FA executives were
also filmed accepting bribes influencing player selection for various
national teams, an AFP correspondent said.
15 referees
were also caught on camera accepting $100 (85 euros) to rig Ghana
Premier League matches, while their assistants were given $50.
The
explosive documentary titled “Number 12” was shown Wednesday at a
preview attended by diplomats and politicians in Accra, Ghana. The
documentary is the result of two years work by an undercover
investigative journalist who goes by the pseudonym Anas Aremeyaw Anas,
who is known for previously exposing graft in Ghana’s judiciary.
