According to Grusah fear of being victimised and suffering intimidation has led to several of the domestic clubs being mute about what has been described by many as mismanagement of the country's football.

Kotoko, Hearts afraid to speak up because of relegation – Alhaji Grunsah

Alhaji Karim Grusah, the financial supporter of King Faisal, has disclosed that numerous football clubs are hesitant to criticize the Ghana Football Association in fear of being 'relegated'. Grusah suggests that the intimidation and victimization threats have caused several domestic clubs to remain silent about the alleged mismanagement of Ghana's football.

The Ghana Premier League and other national teams have faced difficulties under the leadership of Kurt Okraku, most recently reflected in the Black Stars' consecutive defeats at the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. Grusah, speaking on Onua FM, urges Kofi Adams to prompt the resignation of the GFA leadership and the Black Stars Management Committee.

He even suggests that their immediate departure would ensure Ghana's qualification for the next match. Grusah, not a prophet, believes that a resignation would guarantee Ghana's entry to the tournament. He also raises concerns about the absence of the Under 17, Under 20, and Under 23 national teams since Okraku's presidency.
