    Incompetent Mahama alias Malam John wants Black Stars to lose their matches without supporters. Is this not the Dumsor man again?

  • Kwaku Tee 7 hours ago

    I hope President Mahama keeps to his words bcoz he hasn't got the history of being truthful. There's no sense sending Supporters to WC2026,better use that money to put up modern sports infrastructures across the country.
