Former\u00a0Black Stars\u00a0coach CK Akonnor has urged Ghanaians to throw their weight behind\u00a0Otto Addo\u00a0to succeed as the head coach of the\u00a0Black Stars.<\/p>\n
In his second stint,\u00a0Otto Addo\u00a0has made some bold decisions to leave out underperforming players from the squad, a decision that was met with mixed reactions. Despite this, he has succeeded in winning two matches in the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers, beating Mali and the Central African Republic.<\/p>\n
Reacting to\u00a0Otto Addo\u2019s performance, CK Akonnor hailed his recent achievements and emphasised the need for national support for\u00a0Otto Addo, urging Ghanaians to rally behind him and provide the backing necessary for his success.<\/p>\n
Akonnor said, \u201cI think, eventually, the fact that they have given him a long-term contract says it all. This is what we all hope for, meaning that he will have time to prepare this team for a long time, at least five years.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHe needs our support; everybody must support him. What he has done in the last two matches, I think, is very hopeful; it looks like the future is bright. We need to support him, and whatever he believes is wrong, if he believes it is right, we need to support him to do it,\u201d Akonnor added.<\/p>\n
CK Akonnor was the coach of the\u00a0Black Stars\u00a0between 2020-2021.<\/p>\n
