Globe TV GH shared the video on Facebook on Wednesday, July 8, 2026, in which Wayoosi demanded the immediate dissolution of the GFA, directing his appeal straight to the presidency.

Wayoosi's frustration mirrors the mood of many Ghanaians who were left deflated by the team's performances during the tournament. The clip nonetheless sparked a lively conversation, with supporters questioning the direction of the Black Stars and the leadership overseeing them.

"Kurt Okraku is a member of the ndc so Mahama can't take any action"

"GFA is not a government institution. Be guided."

@Bright Nyagasi added:
