CAF must GO and NOT Ghana - NFF stand and do your JOB for once by TheWatch: 4:28pm On Feb 07, 2013
Finally we have done the impossible and qualified for the finals, lets take it one step further and win the cup.
I have read a lot of comments on NL claiming that Ghana bribed the officials, come on people are we so short sighted after seeing what CAF has organised at this year's tournament, we should be calling for the directors of CAF MUST GO.
The level of officiating is a disgrace to the whole of Africa, have we forgotten the game against Zambia were the ref (Ghead Grisha) whose decision to award a late penalty that was put away by Kennedy Mweene, was labelled "strange" by many observers, has continued to work at the Nations Cup. To make matters worse he was the forth official at Eagles game against Mali (source: http://www.futaa.com/football/article/afcon-2013-penalty-referee-back-for-nig-vs-mali)

If Ghana bribed the ref why was the Burkina Faso player who kicked the Ghanaian (in the balls) during the game not red carded immediately but just given a yellow card. Furthermore, he gave the Burkina player a yellow card for the foul that was committed in the BF's penalty area a spot kick should have been awarded to Ghana, if the was a case of bribery this was easiest way to help win the match. This just goes to show that he had no idea of the rules of football.

The level of officiating is so low, that instead of us raining insults on Ghana, we should place pressure on the NFF to help the development of football not only in Nigeria but Africa as a whole and call on CAF to have officials that understand the rules of football officiate the finals.
