However, if they ever want to be, we think they will have the support of many Ghanaians.

• Abedi Ayew ‘Pele’

The Ghanaian football legend is a very good candidate for the presidency if he ever decides to contest.

Abedi Pele was a member of the Black Stars squad that won Ghana’s last Africa Cup of Nations title in 1982.

He was adjudged the African Player of the Year 3 consecutive times (1991, 1992 and 1993)

• Anthony Yeboah

The General Secretary for the Confederation of African Football (CAF) is also a potential president.

Tony Baffoe played his club career in Germany and he was part of the Black Stars team that finished runners-up in the 1992 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).

Ghanaians will surely remember all his football prowess and possibly vote for him.

• Tony Baffoe

The current captain of the Black Stars with his businesses and his efficiency in playing football will be a good President.

He is one of the most successful Ghanaian footballers in history. Why can’t he also be a president? Probably one of the best Ghana would ever have.

The Ghanaian International has all it takes to be President of Ghana if he ever dreams of it.
