In a post shared on his social media handles, Dr. Bawumia lauded the national team for their resilience and commitment, describing their achievement as a proud moment for the entire nation.
“It’s FIFA World Cup number 5!
Congratulations to the Black Stars for qualifying Ghana to the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
We are Ghana! We are coming!”
This qualification marks Ghana’s fifth appearance on football’s biggest stage, following previous participations in 2006, 2010, 2014, and 2022. The team’s consistency underscores Ghana’s enduring presence in global football and its reputation as one of Africa’s football powerhouses.
Dr. Bawumia’s congratulatory message has resonated widely, capturing the collective joy and pride of Ghanaians across the world as the nation prepares to rally behind the Black Stars once again.
The 2026 FIFA World Cup, to be hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico, will feature an expanded 48-team format, promising an even grander global spectacle.
With this qualification, the Black Stars have reignited hope and excitement among fans, and as Dr. Bawumia aptly put it, when the Black Stars rise, the whole of Ghana rises with them.
