World Cup 2022: Stonebwoy criticizes GFA for the Black Stars’ final 26-man squad for tournament

Stonebwoy, a multi-award-winning Raggae/Dancehall singer, has criticized the Ghana Football Association (GFA) for leaving out some key players from its final 26-man team for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
