Before AFCON 2023 early setback, the team had suffered group stage exit at AFCON 2021 and World Cup 2022.
Addressing the nation's lawmakers, Mustapha Ussif disclosed his outfit will engage stakeholders to deliberate on issues relating to the Black Stars following the team’s poor performance in recent times.
“The Ministry of Youth and Sports is aware of the disappointment among the Ghanaian populace and therefore intends to put in measures that will lead to national dialogue of all stakeholders to come out with modern and inclusive way of managing out national teams”
Mustapha Ussif strongly expressed discontent over the recent performances of the national football team, the Black Stars.
"The Black Stars' performance in the last three major tournaments, namely the 2021 AFCON in Cameroon, 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, and 2023 AFCON in Cote D'Ivoire, where Ghana exited at the group stages of all three tournaments, notwithstanding Government's continuous huge investment in the team, is not acceptable."
