The Member of Parliament for the North Tongu constituency in the Volta Region, Mr Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, is calling for a probe into why Ghana football is in a mess.

His call comes after Ghana’s early exit from the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.

The Black Stars were beaten by Afcon debutants Comoros by three goals to two in the team’s final Group C game on Tuesday, 18 January 2022.

The results saw the Black Stars exit the competition in what many have described as the worst performance of the national team in the history of the competition.

Ghana only picked one point after three group matches with Morocco, Gabon and Comoros as group competitors.

Reacting to the national team’s poor showing, Mr Ablakwa, in a Facebook post, suggested the entire team must be dissolved.

His post read: “What a shambolic outing by the Black Stars!”

“This will go down as perhaps the most disastrous tournament performance in Ghana’s footballing history”.

“Who would have imagined that my 3 goals prediction will rather be in favour of Comoros — the underdogs who shall eternally cherish their humiliation and annihilation of Ghana tonight as though they lifted the World Cup”.

“Without a shred of doubt, this Black Stars selection could not have faced the North Tongu Female Keep Fit Club”.

“The team must be immediately dissolved, the coach sacked, and a full-scale national public enquiry launched into why Ghana football is in such a sorry mess”.

“Ghana’s day of self-inflicted international shame!”

Meanwhile, the national team coach, Milovan Rajevac, has said he would not resign despite the team’s embarrassing early exit from the competition.

According to him, his primary target for which reason he came to Ghana is to qualify the team to the World Cup in Qatar this year.
