Ghanaian coach Nana Kwaku Agyemang has questioned Dr Randy Abbey's justification for the Black Stars management Committee receiving World Cup bonuses.

The Ghana Football Association Executive Committee member in his justification noted that the bonuses are paid to the management committee members because of their successes.

Dr Randy Abbey's statement triggered Nana Agyemang who asked about the specific success that warrants such payments to the management committee.

"I just want to know when there has been success sufficient to warrant such payments?" He wrote in a quoted tweet on X.

Speaking before the parliamentary select committee investigating the petition from the Save Ghana Football Demonstration held in February, Dr. Abbey emphasized the importance of recognizing those who contribute to the team's achievements.

“We pay a bonus for recognition of success. So success has been achieved, and we think that it ought to be rewarded. And so we identify those who are responsible for the success and then reward them. Is that not the case?” he stated.

Dr. Abbey further questioned the fairness of criticism, asking, “When the Black Stars fail to perform, what’s the first name that is mentioned? It’s the GFA president. People hold others responsible when there’s a failure. Why should these individuals not be recognized when there’s success?”

Ghana’s Black Stars management committee members reportedly received $100,000 each as bonuses after the 2022 FIFA World Cup, which has sparked controversy. However, the GFA denies that each member received such an amount. Critics argue that the remuneration is excessive compared to player bonuses, which are typically based on performance outcomes.
