Black Stars captain Asamoah Gyan has hit back at controversial sports journalist, Patrick Osei Agyemang (Songo) over the latter’s scathing attack on the Black Stars players following their disappointing 1-1 draw against Congo.
Gyan has responded to Songo’s rants describing him as a stupid person who dwells on negativity to thrive, blaming his employers for not restraining him from perpetrating his act of foolishness.
It will be recalled that Songo on the Monday edition of the award winning Fire for Fire show, descended heavily on players of the Black Stars describing them as “foolish” and “unpatriotic”.
His comments seem to have irked the skipper of the team who has also “fired” back at the Adom TV journalist.
“Some people were born to be negative thinkers and always wish for something bad to happen to get themselves going. It is unpatriotic and unnationalistic for anyone to wish for something bad to happen to the state simply because he will have people to lash at.
“In every country, we have builders of the state and destroyers. That particular guy (Songo) is a destroyer. He does not care about positive news. He only dwells on negativity, Gyan said in an interview with Hot FM
An incensed Gyan further added that “I don’t blame him. I blame those behind the show because they make money from it and do not care about the development of the state”
“They allow such a stupid guy to always go on radio or television to talk foolishly. For him to have gone on television to call Black Stars players as fool is unfortunate. He is rather the biggest fool,” Gyan angrily hit back.
The Black Stars have arrived home from Congo in a plane believed to have been chartered by Asamoah Gyan after the government failed to honour its promise of flying them back in chartered flight.

Thumbs up for not mincing words. Ghanaians talk of role models. How can the nation grow when this ***barred word*** and hard drug user is given such a platform and the employer is not concern about his brand, Ghanaians are unperturbed about the negative influence he'll have on the youth. We are not serious. God punish you songo the buuuluuuu. Ony3
Songo, Asamoah Gyan can count how many goals he's scored for Ghana and substantiate his contribution to Ghana and our football. What can you count or substantiate as your personal contribution for Ghana.....noise and insults? DUUUUUUURUWA!!!
Captain Asamoah Gyan, you have NAILED the nail at the HEAD CORRECTLY. "In every country, we have builders of the state and destroyers." This is WHAT HAS HAPPENED IN THIS COUNTRY - GHANA - SINCE 2009 TO 2016.Do not find them. Just focus.
so ghania u want this football people chope our money free without doing nothing some people are choping our money fro free ooooo we need cup oooooo asamoa gyan should stop taiking and go and work
You have to hit the station where he operates hard - boycott it (them). Let your fingers do the walking to other stations or better yet do something more productive. He's asinine personified.
I agree with you. I have traveled at lot and l can not remember any country that l have visit that allow empty social commentators to talk anyhow on their radio and TV stations like Ghana. Any stuuuupid person get access to the electronic media and talk as if he/her know everything. I was in China early this year watching a live telecast of the country's plan for 2017. I was marveled when my host told me that all that they have plan to do will be achieved in 2017. Unlike Ghana, you will hear the following morning Kwesi Pratt and his cohorts who only thrive on negativity will hop from one station to the other criticizing for a whole year without giving constructive alternatives. Its only in Ghana that after elections, we spend the next 365 days talking politics, when other countries are advertising new products on the electronic media.Allowing everybody including Akua Donkor to feel popular living at the expense of the state.
Gyan you are right, the guy is suffering from immaturity , his brain is week like toilet tissue, is it not this same guy who went and smoke at kanda over head and was arrested by nima police
I think Gyan is right here. Every serious station would have taken him down. He just comes on air high of whatever he takes to come and ***barred word*** at people. There are ways to address grievances but this guy seems uncultured and doesn't know radio is a powerful medium of communication to the public.
