They've been cursed - Prophet Kofi Oduro reveals cause of Black Stars' woes

The head pastor of Alabaster International Ministries, Prophet Kofi Oduro, suspects that the failings of the Black Stars have spiritual connections that need to be interrogated.

A fifth Africa Cup of Nations trophy has been elusive for the Black Stars, who have been hunting for silverware for over forty years.

Since 1982, when Ghana won the trophy in Libya, the Black Stars have failed to annex the title despite coming close three times in 1992, 2010, and 2015.

In 2015, the Black Stars lost out on the trophy to Ivory Coast despite having a huge advantage in the penalty shootouts.

Reflecting on the performance of the team over the past four decades, Prophet Kofi Oduro struggled to understand why Ghana has consistently failed to win a trophy despite coming close and having some of the continent’s best players.

Unable to understand the physical reasons contributing to Ghana’s trophy-less run, Prophet Kofi Oduro has concluded that the team is under some spell.

He claims the Black Stars are suffering from the actions of their handlers and that until some major changes are made regarding call-ups, the team will continue to struggle.

“When you stand before your enemies and you are defeated over a protracted period, it means there is something on your head that needs to be broken. Like the way the Black Stars stand before their enemies and continuously get defeated.

“You can never tell me there's a blessing on the Black Stars. Tell the people who handle the Black Stars that there is a curse on their head. There is a curse on their head that needs to be broken. The team will be defeated and defeated until that curse is broken. All they know is to chop money,” he said.

The Black Stars were in action on Thursday, September 5, when they lost to Angola in the opening match of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

They are currently in Morocco to prepare for the second match, which is against Niger.
