Ghana’s John Boye Pictured Kissing His Share Of $3 Million Cash Bonus [Look]
On Wednesday — a day before Kevin Prince Boateng and Sulley Muntari were sent home in disgrace — Ghana’s president John Dramani Mahama had $3 million in cash flown by chartered jet to the Black Stars in Brazil to settle a dispute over appearance fees and bonuses.
This money would normally be paid to players by FIFA at the conclusion of the tournament, but according to the AP, the players simply demanded it earlier.
Incredibly, the chartered jet full of cash was not hijacked by Bane while in transit to Brazil, and it survived a convoy through the roads of Brasilia that looked like something from a Michael Mann movie.
