Mahama Gave The Order, But Ablakwa Failed To Act – Appiah Stadium Alleges

Appiah Stadium has accused Foreign Affairs Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa of failing to act on what he describes as direct instructions from President John Dramani Mahama concerning his United States visa difficulties ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

According to Appiah Stadium, the President had given directives regarding his visa concerns, but he claims the Foreign Affairs Minister failed to take the necessary steps to address the matter.

In a statement expressing his frustration, Appiah Stadium suggested that Ablakwa did not act as expected despite the alleged presidential intervention.

“Okudzeto Ablakwa failed to act on President Mahama’s direct directives regarding my U.S. World Cup visa issues!” Appiah Stadium alleged.

His comments have brought fresh attention to the challenges surrounding his plans to travel to the United States for the global football tournament.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup, which is being hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico, has attracted massive interest from football fans across the world. Many supporters are hoping to travel to watch their favourite national teams and players compete.

However, travelling to the United States requires applicants to meet the country’s visa requirements, and obtaining a visa is not guaranteed, even when someone receives assistance or support from influential individuals.

Appiah Stadium’s allegation has also raised questions about the level of assistance he expected from the Foreign Affairs Ministry and whether any official steps were taken following the alleged instructions from the President.

It is, however, important to note that his claims have not been independently verified. Neither the Foreign Affairs Minister nor the Presidency has provided a response to the allegation in the information available.

The development could put Ablakwa under pressure to clarify his side of the story, particularly if Appiah Stadium maintains that the President personally intervened in the matter.

For now, the controversy remains centred on Appiah Stadium’s claim that a presidential directive was not acted upon, leaving his U.S. World Cup visa concerns unresolved.
