A routine post-match interview involving Black Stars captain Jordan Ayew came to an abrupt end after an English journalist raised a question about Tottenham Hotspur defender Djed Spence.
In a video sighted by Nsemwokrom.com, Jordan Ayew had stopped to speak with members of the media following Ghana’s international friendly against England when the journalist attempted to ask him about Djed Spence’s reported decision not to shake Thomas Partey’s hand before kickoff.
Before the Black Stars captain could respond to the question, a Ghana Football Association (GFA) official walked into the interview area and escorted Ayew away, effectively bringing the interview to an end.
The footage does not show Jordan Ayew answering the question, nor does it explain why the interview was halted. The clip simply captures the moment the official intervened and led the Black Stars skipper away from the media.
Within minutes of the video appearing online, football fans began sharing different opinions about what had happened.
Some social media users initially claimed the individual who stepped in was GFA President Kurt Okraku.
However, others later clarified that the man seen in the footage was Henry Asante Twum, the Director of Communications of the Ghana Football Association.
The clarification quickly gained traction as more users identified the communications director in the comments section beneath the viral clip.
Neither Jordan Ayew nor the Ghana Football Association has publicly commented on the incident at the time of publication.
The question itself centred on an incident that had already generated discussion before Ghana’s clash with England, with reports suggesting Djed Spence declined to shake Thomas Partey’s hand before the match. The journalist appeared to be seeking Jordan Ayew’s thoughts on that moment before the interview was interrupted.
The brief exchange has since become one of the most talked-about moments following Ghana’s draw against England, attracting thousands of views across multiple social media platforms.
Although opinions continue to vary, the available footage only confirms that the question was asked and that the interview ended before Jordan Ayew gave a response.
As discussions continue online, many supporters have debated whether ending the interview was the right decision, while others believe it helped prevent unnecessary controversy surrounding the Black Stars captain.
The video continues to circulate widely, adding another talking point to the aftermath of Ghana’s encounter with England.

“That’s not him tho, this is Henry Asante Twum – Director of Communications (GFA).”
Savage believed the journalist knew the question could create controversy, writing:
“English media knew better. Some questions are career-ending 😂.”
Khendrick also praised the intervention, although he mistakenly attributed it to the GFA president:
“Six years at the GFA, this is the only good thing Kurt Okraku has done for the Black Stars and Ghanaians. English media didn’t ask Spence this question.”
Opinions online remained divided. While many praised the intervention and felt it prevented an unnecessary distraction, others argued Jordan Ayew should have been allowed to answer the journalist’s question himself.
