President John Dramani Mahama has joined in celebrating the Black Stars’ emphatic 5-0 victory over Chad in their 2026 World Cup qualifying match.
Goals from Inaki Williams, Jordan Ayew, Mohamed Salifu, and Ernest Nuamah ensured the Black Stars resumed their qualifying campaign with an emphatic win at the Accra Sports Stadium.
In a social media post, President Mahama expressed his delight at the team’s performance, humorously noting that the win had boosted his appetite for dinner.
“I had a good appetite for dinner after the Black Stars’ 5-0 victory. Congrats, guys!” he wrote, applauding the team for their impressive display.
Despite the commanding result, Mahama urged the team to stay focused and avoid complacency as they continue their campaign.
“Let this victory not make us complacent. This should be the beginning of bringing back the love,” he noted.
The Black Stars now sit atop Group I with 12 points — two ahead of second-placed Madagascar, whom they will face on Monday, March 24, in Morocco.
