Following this, there was tension in town as to why players such as Joseph Paintsil, Majeed Ashemeru and Jeffery Schlupp could not make the squad.

Showing his disappointment over the squad, Stonebwoy believes there was some fishy in the selection of the final squad

Taking to his twitter account, the musician insinuated that some players are only part of the official list because of a bribery system overseen by the authorities, something he called “Pay to Play”.
