Gloria Akpene Aquah, the media personality better known by her stage name “MzGee,” has urged the Ghana Football Association to respond to several accusations made against them by Stonebwoy.
Earlier, Stonebwoy tweeted after the Black Stars lineup was announced, implying that other more deserving players were left out of the group because of “pay to play.”
Because of #PayToPlay, there are players who should be on the team but aren’t. Why GFA?” He had previously tweeted.
Numerous internet users supported Stonebwoy’s claims despite the fact that they have not yet been proven, while others criticized him for making such accusations.
However, MzGee believes that such allegations coming from a well-known company like Stonebwoy shouldn’t be disregarded.
“When I saw the tweet, my heart skipped because Stonebwoy isn’t a small brand. What he wrote wasn’t only spotted by Ghanaians. People all over the world saw it. Even if these accusations are true, can’t we talk about it at home and not make noise about it?
Now you have exposed our GFA to the entire world. FIFA is watching. You have exposed us to a bigger community. There is no proof to what he is saying,” she added.
MzGee reprimanded the dancehall artist for disparaging the GFA brand and demanded that Stonebwoy either provide the public with proof of his assertions or retract them.
“I remember an instance I made an inference on social media over someone’s commentary, the person’s lawyers wrote to me. I am waiting for GFA to respond to this. What do they have to say? Because they have been tagged. Once they don’t respond to this, then there is an iota of truth in this.
Because a bigger brand with a huge following has said it, its followers can also say it. As for Stonebwoy, if he has no proof, then it is now time for him to come and tell us that he said it out of jest. Because you cannot denigrate someone’s brand in that manner when you don’t want your brand to be rubbished.”
