I'm happy with Black Stars performance - Sports Minister.

The Minister for Youth and Sports, Hon. Edward Osei Kwaku, has expressed surprise at those who have expressed indignation at the performance of the Black Stars at the African Nations Cup in Mali 2002.

“What is there to be ashamed of?” sports bi-weekly Africa Sports quoted him as saying to Yaw Ampofo-Ankrah who had gone over to seek his views on Mali 2002.

“Since 1992, the Black Stars’ best has been the quarterfinals. When we hosted the Nations Cup at our own backyard two years ago, our best was the quarterfinals. So why are we suddenly behaving as though CAN 2002 was such a major flop?” the minister wondered. He said his ministry would study the report of the FA and make the appropriate recommendations.
