Ghana's national women's
football team, the Black Queens, are refusing to leave their hotel over unpaid
bonuses. The
players have been put up in the capital, Accra, ever since returning home last
week from the Africa Games with the gold medal.
BBC
reports the government has agreed to pay the Black Queens US$2,000 (£1,300)
each for that victory in Brazzaville, but the players say they are owed a
further US$9,000 for winning other matches - and they want that money too.
They've been telling local
media that they make a lot of sacrifices but they are not handled in the same
way as their male counterparts.
