It's been six days since news broke that President Nana Akufo Addo has reported GFA boss Kwesi Nyantakyi to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) over defrauding by false pretenses.
The President's decision came on the back of having watched excerpts of the yet to be premiered Anas Aremeyaw Anas documentary on corruption in which Mr. Nyantakyi was seen negotiating for an amount of money. In the video, the GFA boss allegedly uses the name of the President and his vice, Dr. Bawumia.
Since then, Mr Nyantakyi and Anas have dominated newspaper headlines. And it's not any different today ahead of the official premiere of the documentary titled ''Number 12'' on June 6.

The Crusading Guide: Arrest, Prosecute Anas! - Odike takes issue with his style of investigation
The 2012 Presidential Candidate for the United Front Party and a known businessman, Akwasi Addai, popularly called Odike has taken issue with the investigative style of Anas Aremeyaw Anas and said it goes against the laws of the country and that the investigative journalist must be arrested and prosecuted.
Odike's argument is that the methods used by the journalist is not constitutional but that ''What Anas and his team did is not good and therefore they should be arrested and prosecuted.''
''There is a difference between investigating an alleged corruption which the person is caught doing something but not for him to have rather initiated the process and allegedly bribe the judges and capture it on camera as an investigative work of corruption against the implicated (sic)''.
