A staunch supporter of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Frank Kwaku Appiah, popularly known as ‘Appiah Stadium’, has publicly expressed his desire to secure an appointment as head of security in an oil and gas company in Ghana.
In a video that has gone viral on social media, Appiah Stadium stated that whenever he visits Accra, he seeks an opportunity to meet with former President John Dramani Mahama to remind him of his aspirations to serve in his government.
“Whenever I come to Accra, I want to get close to the President to remind him, in case there is a vacancy, so he remembers me for an appointment. Recently, I went to the Jubilee House because the President asked me to see him. I walked with him to his car before he drove off alongside the Vice President, and I engaged in a chat with him.
“I want to either get an appointment at Ghana Gas or as head of security in the oil and gas sector. If I don’t get an appointment, people will mock me because of my closeness to him. I want to be appointed because of the sacrifices I have made. If I were living with him in the Jubilee House, it wouldn’t be news because of my close association with him,” he said in a recent interview on Royal TV on February 11, 2025.
Appiah Stadium reiterated his admiration for Mahama but maintained that he was pursuing an appointment to justify his long-time loyalty.
“Mahama is a good person, but as I have said before, even if I had the opportunity to meet him every day, I wouldn’t do that.
“People are watching me and asking what I have gained from all my support. So, if I don’t get closer to him, I won’t get my share of the cake,” he added.
