Henry Asante Twum goes wild on Elizabeth Addo over recent debacle with Ghana FA

Communications Director of the Ghana Football Association Henry Asante Twum has opened up on Elizabeth Addo’s recent debacle with the FA.

The Black Queens are currently in Nigeria for the Aisha Buhari Cup without their skipper Elizabeth following the latter’s comment about the domestic football governing body months ago.

The Djurgadens IF forward who was named among the 30 players for camping at the Ghanaman Soccer Center of Excellence, Prampram, was dropped for the inaugural tournament in Nigeria over disrespect.

In the post-dated June 14, 2021, Elizabeth Addo pleaded with the FA and the Ministry of Youth and (MOYS) to learn from their opponents for the 2022 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (AWCON) qualifiers, Nigeria and arrange high profile friendly games as part of preparations for the AWCON qualifiers.

However, the FA, who seems not too happy with Elizabeth Addo’s act orchestrated for his omission from the squad for the Aisha Buhari Cup.

Reacting to the situation, Henry Asante Twum said: “I saw Elizabeth Addo’s tweet and I think we need to educate our sports men and Women on terms of engagement,” Henry Asante Twum said on Starr FM.

“Imagine Henry Asante wakes up one morning and write a distasteful comment about the organization you work with. It doesn’t work anywhere.

“I don’t think the Coach of the Black Queens, the General Secretary will repel the opinion of the captain of the Queens if she had made it formal, but go to the public is gross disrespect. It’s different she did it formally and she was ignored,” he ended.

The Aisha Buhari tournament is scheduled for September 15 to 21 in Lagos, Nigeria. Ghana have been drawn in Group B alongside the Indomitable Lioness of Cameroon and the Banyana Banyana of South Africa.
