Deputy General Secretary of the ruling New Patriotic Party,Nana Obiri Boahen has questioned why the head of the senior men's national team the Black Stars should be taking home such huge salaries.

According to him the figures are prohibitive considering it is the state the pays the Black Stars coach and not from the coffers of the GFA.

The Black Stars coach takes home a monthly salary of $25,000 which is $10,000 less than his predecessor Kwasi Appiah.

Nana Obiri Boahene has slammed why the Black Stars coach will be paid this huge salaries while club owners who finance these clubs get very little returns.

“CK Akonnor’s salary is very huge. The $25,000 is too much. I don’t know if it’s because I don’t have money but I feel it’s a big money. Even the total amount of salaries received by players of Asante Kotoko or Hearts may not be up to the $25,000,” Boahen said on Hello FM.

He further questioned how much those running football clubs in Ghana earn for the national team coach alone to pocket this mammoth salary.

“Sometimes we should consider those running clubs in Ghana. How much does Agama of Bechem United and Nana Kwame of Berekum Chelsea get from their respective clubs every month? We need to be very fair looking at where we are coming from," he said.
