‘I don’t have money for food’ – Ghanaian footballer stuck in Zimbabwe cries out

Ghanaian footballer stuck in Zimbabwe, Dela Akorli, has cried out for help after being neglected by his club, Bulawayo Chiefs, to the point of not being able to afford food.

He described the last five months as a nightmare. 

The 19-year-old Ghanaian center forward’s contract with Amakhosi expires on December 31, 2022, but he is presently stranded in Bulawayo because he doesn’t even have money for a flight back home. 

Akorli has not received payment for months, along with the other Chiefs players, as a result of the club’s severe financial situation, which is even endangering its own existence.

“Since I signed for the club, they have not given me my signing on fee and they are owing me 5 months salary,” Akorli told Soccer24.

“Since we finished the league, I had no money on me, to even buy food or data bundle. I have no entertainment at home it has been very tough for me.

“I couldn’t watch the World Cup that took place recently. Life has been very tough for me,” he added.

Until a teammate offered him shelter in his apartment in Bulawayo, Arkoli claims he was having trouble paying his rent.

The Amakhosi striker says he has engaged the Footballers Union of Zimbabwe (FUZ), so that he can get his money and go back to Ghana.

“I want to go back home because the stress that I have gone through this season with this club (Chiefs) is too much for me,” said Arkoli.

According to Soccer24, a Bulawayo Chiefs executive is attempting to minimize the damage by procuring Arkoli airplane tickets to leave the country without paying him the money he is owed.

Most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by their Pastors – Papa Shee

Evangelist Papa Shee says most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by Pastors. According to him, most Pastors in Ghana currently are occults and with the way they are been celebrated by their followers, they initiate them into occult groups without their knowledge. He mentioned that Ghanaians lack knowledge and that has always been the reason why Pastors take advantage of them.

Residents of Samreboi cry on gov’t to fix their roads

Residents of Samreboi are up in arms with the Government of Ghana over neglect of their roads. According to residents, It has become very worrying as their bad road network is affecting not only economic activities but also their social activities.
