Minister of Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams
Minister of Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams, has dubbed the Black Stars’ 2026 World Cup qualifier against Chad a “national mission.”
The minister emphasised that the game should be treated with the utmost importance, while urging Members of Parliament to attend the game at the Accra Sports Stadium.
Speaking on the floor of Parliament, he extended a special invitation to all parliamentarians to the game.
“Mr. Speaker, this is a national mission and requires the support of everyone, including this august House. I extend a special invitation to all Members of Parliament to join us in the stands as we support the Black Stars in their upcoming World Cup qualifier against Chad on Friday at the Accra Sports Stadium,” he said.
The Black Stars head into the game looking to make amends after failing to qualify for the 2025 AFCON.
The team has faced heavy criticisms since their subpar performance in the AFCON qualifiers, recording their lowest attendance in recent years during their last game against Niger.
However, the team’s strong form in the World Cup qualifiers has rekindled fans interest, with many eager to visit the stadium for the game against Chad.
Ghana will host Chad at the Accra Sports Stadium on Friday, March 21, before travelling to Morocco to face Madagascar on Monday, March 24.
