Ghana president charges Black Stars for fifth Africa Cup of Nations title

Ghana president Nana Akufo-Addo has urged the Black Stars to go for gold at the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations after the team wrapped up qualification for the tournament with a win over Kenya on Saturday.

An 82nd-minute goal by substitute and debutant Caleb Ekuban earned Kwesi Appiah's outfit a 1-0 triumph at the Accra Sports Stadium, sending the side top of Group F.

Now, all attention has turned to the continental showpiece slated for Egypt in June/July, where Ghana will be seeking to end a 37-year trophy drought.
