President John Dramani Mahama has congratulated the Black Stars for securing a spot at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, to be jointly hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

In a post on Facebook on Monday, October 13, President Mahama praised the team’s achievement, writing: “Congratulations to the senior national team, the #BlackStars. Another qualification for the World Cup. #ResettingGhana.”

The Black Stars sealed their qualification with a hard-fought 1–0 win over Comoros on Sunday night, in Accra, earning Ghana its fifth appearance on football’s biggest stage since their debut in 2006.

Tottenham Hotspur playmaker Mohammed Kudus netted early in the second half to hand Ghana the crucial win, ending Comoros’ recent dominance after two consecutive defeats to the island nation.
