“My interest is justice for everybody, and the truth must be told that Anas who was able to set up somebody is corrupt and takes higher bribes.

“..My interest is that, firstly, his procedures are wrong. Secondly, Anas, who is investigating others should first investigate himself because he is more corrupt than anybody he has exposed. If Kwesi Nyantaky took $65,000, Anas takes $100,000,” he added.

Anas’ latest exposé, titled ‘Number 12’, implicated some officials of the Ghana Football Association, including the Association’s president Kwesi Nyantakyi.

Nyantakyi has since resigned from his post as GFA boss, whiles also quitting has his commitments with CAF and FIFA.
