The Speaker of Ghana's Parliament, Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin, has urged the Black Stars to go for gold in the upcoming FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
Mr. Bagbin said parliament is solidly behind them as they make an appearance in the global showpiece.
"I want to assure the Black Stars, this parliament is solidly behind them, and they should confidently go for the gold and cup," he said.
Mr. Bagbin became the first-ever Speaker of Parliament from an opposition party in 2021.
He is also overseeing the closest Parliament in Ghana’s fourth republic, in which the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) won 137 seats each, with one independent MP supporting the NPP.
Ghana will open their 2022 World Cup campaign against Portugal on November 24, before going on to face South Korea and Uruguay, as they will be looking forward to advance from the group stage and surge forward, even to the finals.
