Ghana’s goalkeeper, Stephen Ahorlu has thrown his weight behind new Black Stars coach, CK Akonnor as he strongly believes the latter has the traits and character to manage the senior national team.
Following the exit of Kwesi Appiah, the Ghana FA appointed CK Akonnor to lead the team on a two-year deal.
However, the appointment of the former Dreams FC and Ashgold gaffer has been queried by many but Ahorlu believes the traits Akonnor demonstrated during his playing days make him the right candidate.
Ahorlu, however, called on Ghanaians to offer the support he deserves to succeed.
“CK Akonnor was a professional footballer and a former player for the national team. After venturing into coaching he has coached the big teams in Ghana including Kotoko and Hearts and so why can’t he manage the Black Stars? He quizzed.
“I’m sure he can lead the Black Stars. I support the GFA when they appointed him because I knew he can do the job. We should all pray behind him and desist from the pull him down attitude” he said.
