Only 6 countries participated when Ghana won AFCON in 1963 and 1965. You move straight to the final when you win your group, no semi-final. In 78 and 82, only 8 countries participated. They haven't won since AFCON was expanded to 16 countries. Now that its 24, e go too hard them

Sincerely feel we do not give Ghana enough grief over the fact that half of their AFCON titles were won on home soil...

I'm always amused when I see PDP folks blame Obi/LP for their electoral defeat in 2023. Five governors from your own party, who are still members of your party, openly worked against the Presidential candidate, but let's pile on the man that had the decency to leave.

Tobi Amusan ran a blistering race in the 100m hurdles final at the Nigeria Olympics trial but the officials did not turn on the electronic timer, she is in tears. Tobi probably broke the African record this evening but we will never know. 🤦
