#AhmedSuale was known for his revelations about former Ghanaian Football Association president Kwesi Nyantakyi which earned him numerous threats, including from a member of Parliament. 2/5

The journalist had posed as a Qatari sheikh who was offering to sponsor the Ghanaian football league. He surreptitiously filmed Nyantakyi pocketing $65,000 in cash in a hotel room in Dubai. #AhmedSuale 3/5
