Mahama Visits Black Stars During Training Ahead of Chad Clash
On Wednesday, March 19, 2025, President John Dramani Mahama made a surprise visit to the Black Stars during their training session at the Accra Sports Stadium.
This visit was aimed at boosting the team’s morale ahead of their crucial 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Chad, scheduled for Friday, March 21.
During his visit, President Mahama acknowledged the team’s recent setbacks, including their failure to qualify for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). He expressed the nation’s continued belief in the Black Stars’ potential to regain their former glory, stating, “We haven’t given up on you. We still believe that the Black Stars can find its glory again, and it’s dependent on you.”
The President also assured the team of his personal support by committing to attend the upcoming match against Chad, despite his usual reservations about watching live football due to the emotional intensity. He humorously mentioned, “Even though my heart is not very good at watching soccer, I will brave it.”
The Black Stars are currently third in Group I with nine points and are aiming to secure maximum points in their matches against Chad and Madagascar to bolster their chances of World Cup qualification.
