Black Stars have done Ghana and Africa proud -Mills

The Black Stars have done Ghana and Africa proud and on behalf of the people and Government of Ghana, I congratulate Stephen Appiah and his teammates for a job well done.

In yesterday’s match, there was going to be only one winner, and unfortunately, it was not the Black Stars.


Despite the heartbreaking loss, as a nation, we must not lose sight of the fact that the Black Stars flew high the flag of Ghana and we must be proud of our senior national football team for the honour done us.


We must not nail them for what happened yesterday, rather, let us continue to support them and show our appreciation for what they have achieved.


This team certainly has character and fortitude and there is no gainsaying the fact that they will continue to bring laurels to Mother Ghana.


Coach Rajevac and his technical team gave off their best and Ghana is grateful to them.

Let us rejoice in what we have achieved believing that there are better and joyous days ahead.


To you my fellow Ghanaians, I say a big ayekoo for your excellent and nation-loving support.


The star of Ghana is shining bright and we must take collective pride in putting our nation on a high pedestal.


Stephen Appiah and his teammates have made Ghana proud and we must accord them a heroic welcome, for, they deserve it.


John Evans Atta Mills (President, Republic of Ghana)
