According to Owusu Bempah, the Black Stars were going to bring the cup home after the tournament.

The Black Stars are aiming to win the AFCON title which will be the fifth in total and the first ever win since 1982.

Their uninspiring performances so far in Egypt have got many Ghanaians to lose faith in the team breaking the 37-year-old AFCON trophy drought.

After drawing their first two group games in lacklustre fashion, the Black Stars needed a 2-0 win over Guinea Bissau to advance to the next stage of the tournament.

But speaking before the Guinea Bissau game, Owusu Bempah was optimistic of the Black Stars winning the game and going forward to win the tournament.

In an interview with Accra-based Neat FM, Owusu Bempah called on Ghanaians to pray for the Black Stars because he is certain that the team would win and march on to the trophy.

“Each and every Ghanaian must pray for our Black Stars because we are winning this afternoon’s game and subsequently end our trophy drought and so I am hopeful that Ghana will win against Guinea-Bissau and bring the cup home,” he stated.

Asked if it was a revelation, the outspoken man of God said: “this prediction is my opinion and I believe in it but it is not a revelation or a prophecy but I want Ghanaians to believe and it would happen.”
