The video which was premiered across the country dubbed ‘Number 12’ was compiled by internationally acclaimed investigated Journalist, Anas Aremeyaw Anas, and his Tiger Eye PI firm, capturing local leagues, referees, club owners, coaches and the higher reaches of the football administration in Ghana, as well as its connection to continental and global football.
According to RAG, a Disciplinary Committee has been set up to look into the allegations and take proper action.
