Following the recent disappointment from the Black Stars’ loss in their Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifying match against Sudan, emotions are running high among fans and Ghanaian celebrities alike.

Bring Kwesi Appiah back - Sonnie Badu to GFA after Black Stars loss

Popular gospel artist Sonnie Badu in a heartfelt message addressed to the Ghana Football Association, urged them to consider a significant change that could be a “spiritual” turning point for the team.

His post called on the GFA to swallow its pride and bring back Kwesi Appiah, former coach of the Black Stars now coach of Sudan.

In a reaction post on Instagram he said, "Dear @ghana_fa_official, I can tell you for free that this was a painful win for my friend. Let’s swallow our pride and bring him back!

This is more spiritual than physical, and if you think football isn’t spiritual, just hear me out—anything controlled by the wind definitely has mysteries.

Get him back ‼️."

In light of the Black Stars’ recent struggles, it’s no surprise that many supporters are calling for a mix of both physical and spiritual rejuvenation to secure a place at AFCON 2025.

The Black Stars' hopes of qualifying for the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) were shattered following a 0-2 defeat to Sudan on Tuesday afternoon at the Benina Martyrs Stadium in Libya.

After four matches, Ghana lies in third place in Group F with two points. Sudan holds second place with seven points, while Angola leads with nine points and awaits its fourth game.

Prior to this, Ghana drew 1-1 with Niger, lost to Angola 1-0 at home, and drew goallessly at home against Sudan.

The Black Stars will travel to face Angola and then play their final match against Niger in Ghana.

The team’s chances of qualifying are now slim, with any further defeat in the next two games likely to jeopardise their hopes of reaching the 2025 AFCON in Morocco.
