ACCRA (AFM) - Ghana is known as one of Africa’s friendliest nations, but tensions have been running high after a pair of victorious but sluggish performances to start their 2008 African Cup of Nation campaign. The abuse at Ohene Djan Stadium during the 1-0 victory over Namibia got so bad that a pair of players - brothers Asamoah and Baffour Gyan - had their bags packed and threatened to leave the team this weekend, while the President of Ghana himself went on television to ask supporters and media for patience.
