The former Ghana Football Association (GFA) President, Kwesi \nNyantakyi has described the work of Anas Aremeyaw Anas and his Tiger Eye\n PI as similar to the operations of terrorist group, ISIS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr Nyantakyi who was breaking his silence since the #Number12 sting documentary<\/a> by Anas and Tiger Eye PI led to his removal from office, said he never met the lead investigator (Anas), but\u00a0said the team used the video scandal to blackmail him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was speaking via phone on Accra based Net2 TV Thursday, where its \nowner and Assin Central MP, Kennedy Agyapong first released images Anas \nAremeyaw Anas and Ahmed Hussein-Suale, who has since been killed by yet \nto be identified gunmen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe kind of work he does, he behaves like the Isis, the ISIS team. \nWith this team you meet only one team member. I met only Ahmed, and \nnever met Anas or any other person from his outfit. And then at the end \nof their so-called investigation, Anas and TIGER Eye claimed \nresponsibility for the outcome of the investigation. They asked a lawyer\n who teaches in Legon, he knows him, Anas is his friend, they contacted \nme and asked me to pay one-fifty-thousand dollars ($150,000) and I said I\n didn\u2019t have the money,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr Nyantakyi said that the team previously demanded 400,000 US \ndollars from him, and added that the whole investigative project on him \nwas a sponsored project.<\/ins>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He further revealed that some staff of the GFA who did not like him, paid an amount of 400,000 US dollars to Anas to conduct the ‘so-called investigation’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
