Special aide to former President John Mahama, Joyce Bawa Mogtari<\/strong> has wondered whether the love for the Ghana national team, Black Stars, can ever be rekindled among the citizenry. <\/p>\n

According to her, the love has not been reciprocated by the team for at least 40 years despite the high hopes Ghanaians have in the players.<\/p>\n

Bring back the love, how can this love be reciprocated when the said love has remained unrequited for at least 40 years !!! #BlackStars<\/a><\/p>\n

Her comment comes on the back of the defeat the team suffered in their first match<\/strong> in the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations [AFCON<\/strong>] against Morocco.<\/p>\n

The coach, Milovan Rajevac and his side were hoping to make a bright start to the tournament but that was not to be.<\/p>\n

An 83rd-minute Sofiane Boufal goal gave the North African giants a crucial win over Ghana at the Ahmadou Ahidjo Stadium in Yaounde on Monday.<\/p>\n

Taking to her Twitter page, Madam Mogtari has lamented the team has had the same outcome over the years regardless of having a foreign or local coach.<\/p>\n

She wrote: Ghanaian Coach, Foreign Coach, Local player vis-a-vis foreign player same outcome\u2026 how do we bring back the love\u2026<\/em>#AFCON2022<\/a> #BlackSta<\/a><\/em>rs<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n
