Black Stars General Captain Asamoah Gyan has accused Ghanaians of destroying Kwesi Nyantakyi, whom he describes as an angel sent from God.
According to Gyan, Nyantakyi transformed Ghana football but was mishandled and treated unfairly after Anas Aremeyaw Anas documentary aired.
Nyantakyi was filmed appearing to take a $65,000 bribe from a supposed businessman seeking to sponsor the Ghana Premier League and is currently serving a life-time ban from football.
“He [Kwesi Nyantakyi] was like an angel sent to help Ghana Football. Let's look at the peak he elevated our game to the world,” Asamoah Gyan said on Joy FM Super Morning Show.
''The man was mishandled and treated unfairly by Ghanaians after the so-called video exposé. We should have opened an in-depth investigation into the matter
"I have worked with him for several years and I know the kind of person, I am talking about today. He rose the highest level of world football to become Caf first-vice president and a Fifa Executive Council Member but we used less than 48 hours to bring him down.
"Our football hasn't been better since Kwasi Nyantakyi absence. It's very sad. Whether we like it or not, Ghana made the three appearances at the FIFA World Cup because of him," he added.
Kwesi Nyantakyi served as Ghana Football Association President for 13 years. He also held positions such as CAF first vice president, FIFA council member and WAFU Zone B president.
Ghana’s football is currently being run by a Normalisation Committee. Their mandate is expected to end in September this year.

NYANTAKYI ROSE TO THE HIGHEST A GHANAIAN HAS EVER ACHIEVED IN THE GLOBAL FOOTBALL, BUT HE WAS NOT SMART. AS HE ROSE THROUGH AFRICA TO THE WORLD, HE SHOULD HAVE RELINQUISH HIS ROLE IN GHANA TO OTHERS. HE DESTROY HIMSELF BY HOLDING ON TO GFA AND FIFA. IF HE HAD DONE WHAT WAS NEEDED TO BE DONE HE WOULD HAVE FOREVER BECOME A FATHER TO GHANA FOOTBALL. THE REST OF GHANA ESPECIALLY OUR POLITICIANS SHOULD KNOW HOW TO RELINQUISH POWER TO AVOID DISGRACE.
Now I have the ascertained and emphatic confirmation Asamoah Gyan has no brain in his big head. His head is simply empty.
All you commenting supporting the crucifixion of Nyantakyi and Gyan. I want to ask you a simple question. Have you ever taken bribe before at work, home, hospital, vehicle etc. Had you been in his shoes you would have taken more than he took. The video clearly was a setup. Who on this earth would reject a gift? It was just a gift to set him up. Now GHA football has collapse is what everybody wants and they're having. I support baby jet.
Gyan. God Bless You and your descendants.What you have said is the Gospel truth.They just destroyed the man mean while those who did that all all T'HIEVEZ including all those who said "CRUCIFIED HIM".Just look at the just ended AFCON TOURNAMENT what the MINISTRY/NC did.Pure s'tealing which did not yield any result.May God Bless Kwesi because Ghanaians always seek to destroy.Now look at how the Ghanaian National women's team are suffering mean while they all have World Cup qualification assignments.What is the Failed NC/Ministry/Gov't doing nothing.FOR LACK OF LEADERSHIP MY GH. PEOPLE GOT LOST! GHANA Duei oo Duei,Duei ne Amanehunu!
Asamoah Djan is sure a man of low morals so it is not surprising he sees Nyantakyi as an angel from heaven
Its not his fault to suggest Nyantakyi is an angel because if it was in another country, Nyantakyi would have been prosecuted without fear or favour. Then again, if it was in another country, Gyan would never have played for the national team again because of the extra-marital affair with that lady. So u see, Gyan's statement simply proves that Ghana is a failed country without morals or principles
Ghana football is dead because of Abedi pele forcing his children into the national team so that at the end he can get contract in Europe clubs for them. Over there in Europe they dont perform and the keep changing teams and come back to play blackstars to get more contract in foreign clubs.
Are you scared to mention names? You should say some Ghanaians because I am not one of the mafias at the coffee shop. He was destroyed by Anas and his cohorts.
BECAUSE HE IS A ***barred word*** LIKE YOU. TELLING A PLAYER TO LIE ABOUT MONIES HE HAS RECEIVED FROM THE TAXPAYERS. ALL THESE WHILE YOU AND YOUR HEAD CRIMINAL OF THE FA HAS BEEN STEALING FROM THIS INSANE COUNTRY AND NO WONDER YOU ARE HAILING A CRIMINAL. YOUR GAME HAS COME TO AN END. GO AND ENJOY THE MONEY YOU AND YOUR SO-CALLED CRIMINAL ANGEL HAVE STOLEN FROM GHANA ALL THESE WHILE. YOU INFLATE MONIES AND SHARE THE BOOTY BEHIND. CRIMINALS IN THE HIGHEST DEGREE. APUUUU.
This hypocrite should be silent He is the cause of the woes in Ghana soccer. He should have resigned after South Africa World cup. Such a selfish and light minded person.
