Ghana Football Association president Kwasi Nyantakyi has backed the Ghana female senior national team to win the maiden WAFU Zone B Women’s Nations Cup.
The Queens will begin their campaign with a game against hosts Ivory Coast on Wednesday.
"The whole nation, the Ghana Football Association are solidly behind them, we are praying for them to participate and excel," he said
"I have told them this is a very important tournament as we are not playing qualifiers for the African Women's Cup so they should go all out."
Ghana is in group A with Ivory Coast, Niger and Burkina Faso while group B is made up of Nigeria, Senegal, Togo and Benin.
