“Let Me See the Black Stars at the World Cup before i depart ” – Dr Tony Aidoo’s Heartfelt Wish

5

Dr Tony Aidoo, a veteran statesman and distinguished member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has revealed his heartfelt final wish: to see Ghana’s national football team, the Black Stars, qualify for and shine at the FIFA World Cup.

 

The outspoken politician, who has played a pivotal role in the NDC’s political journey over the years, made it clear that while his passion for football remains strong, he has no desire to be part of the intense internal contest that will shape the party’s leadership ahead of the 2028 presidential elections.

A figure widely respected for his candour and intellect, Dr Aidoo’s sentiments highlight both his enduring love for Ghanaian sport and his complex relationship with the ever-changing political landscape. His reflections serve as a reminder of the unifying power of football in a nation often defined by political rivalries.
