A renowned lawyer, Gabby Otchere Darko has called for support for Ghana coach, CK Akonnor.

Akonnor, 46, has dominated the headlines for the wrong reason following the Black Stars poor showing in the 2022 Fifa World Cup qualifiers.

The Black Stars opened their qualifiers with a 1-0 win over Ethiopia at the Cape Coast Stadium, with Mubarak Wakaso scoring the only goal of the game.

The playing body was slammed for the poor pattern of play despite the win.

On Monday, the team suffered a 1-0 defeat to South Africa in the second Group G game at the FNB Stadium in Johannesburg.

The defeat did not go down well mot Ghanaian football fans with many calling for his sack.

However, Otchere Darko believes the Black Stars losing to the Bafana Bafana is not a disaster.

He added that the team is in good shape and pleaded that it is about time we offer our support to Akonnor.

Ghana will play a doubleheader against Zimbabwe next month. The Black Stars sit 3rd with 3 points.

The West African country is seeking to book a place in the global showpiece that will be hosted in Qatar next year having missed out in the last edition hosted in Russia.
