A senior figure in the National Democratic Congress Yaw Boateng Gyan says Sports Minister Nii Lante Vanderpuye is unnecessarily picking on the Ghana Football Association and has described his behaviour as childish.
Gyan, a former Black Stars management committee member, believes Vanderpuye has gone beyond the bounce with his constant vitriolic attacks on the federation.
The relationship between the Sports Ministry and the Ghana Football Association turned frosty after Vanderpuye was appointed head of the sector and his quest to cleanse a corrupt association seems to have gone overboard.
"We've to speak the truth as the way we see it. What the minister is doing is something completely out of place," he said in an interview with Kumasi-based Silver FM.
"Since he started engaging himself with those needless tag of war with the Ghana FA as he has been launching constant attacks on them, I think this is not good at all. I've condemned him on countless occasions on different platforms and still the feud remains unchanged as it keeps on exacerbating.''
"I advised him that he can't use the ministry position to settle his personal scores with the FA . I think if he is having problems with Ghana FA, he should look for a well dialogue manner to settle the issue with them," the former Tano Bofoakwa chairman added.
"He shouldn't do something which will have a repercussion on our football game in the country.
''Football is what is keeping us united in this country and if he should continue to do that, Ghanaians will become fed up with him as what he is doing is childish."

ghanasoccer.com,liar.it was rather the gfa decision to present a blank badget that yaw boatent gyan described as childish not the minister.we are strongly behind the minister.the thiefs is the gfa like nyantankye and co must go. i listened the tap.no where did he say the minister is childish
See, everyone is complaining about the sports minister but none is saying anything about the chop chop that is going on at the GFA
What @ all has de minister done? Was he playing de number 10 position? GFA didn't get money 2 chop; so players decided not 2 score; who suffers?
Yaw Boateng Gyan should show this same sincerity in other issues of national concern. Much as some of us are utterly disgusted with the reckless behaviour this ***barred word*** minister, it is obvious that Yaw Gyan is reacting just because he is a beneficiary of the spoils at the GFA. Yaw Gyan should stop the selective and hypocritical behaviour that has become his trademark in politics in this country.
So until when his excellency president Mahama will remove this toy who call himself a minister from office he is destroying Ghana football.
Hello Opanyin Boateng-Gyan. I believe you are very close to the appointing authority. Please redirect your concerns appropriately.
@Peacefmonline; Please upload current Kokrookoo show wai. Thanks
We are already fed up with nii Lante and the way he's carrying himself. If he thinks any particular person in the FA is corrupt and has the evidence, he should go to court and stop those childish things. If Lante has what it takes to fight corruption then the GYEEDA, SUBAH and Woyome cases are there for his attention.
