The two terror suspects, who have been relocated to Ghana for two years, from Guantanamo Bay, Mahmud Umar Muhammad Bin Atef and Khalid Muhammad Salih Al-Dhuby, say they love skipper of Ghana’s national football team, Black Stars.

Speaking in an exclusive interview on Accra based Uniq FM, Atef and Al-Dhuby said: “we are really happy for the warm reception that Ghana has given us. I like Ghanaian people because they are very good people, they are very polite, we are very very excited to come here because we know some of the things about Ghana; first of all is Asamoah Gyan, we know him, we like him very much…even a lot of [the] detainees … like Ghanaians and as I told someone here [earlier], in 2010 [during] the world cup, most of the people there [Guantanamo Bay] – I can say all of us – we were with Ghana and when Ghana beat America, we were very happy.
