28.01.2015 LISTEN

Praises and congratulations keep pouring in for the national team following their amazing come-from-behind victory over South Africa on Tuesday at the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations.

Never to be left out and keen to add his voice and personally laud the achievement by the Black Stars is the chief of the land, President John Dramani Mahama himself who wasted no time at all in taking to Twitter to send a well done message to Avram Grant's men who remain in Equatorial Guinea to pursue more success.

"Incredible performance from the Black Stars. Thanks for holding high the flag of Ghana and for making Ghanaians proud. Congratulations," President Mahama tweeted few moments after Ghana's 2-1 win.

Earlier last Friday when the Black Stars scored in injury time to revive their campaign with a 1-0 win over Algeria, Mr. Mahama did same, tweeting to congratulate and urge the team to go for more glory.

"Congratulations to the Black Stars. Yesterday the Black Stars proved that in the face of challenges, we can rise to the occasion if we're all minded to do so," His Excellency John Mahama stated.

Tuesday's victory pushed the Black Stars to the top of AFCON 2015 Group C and will now await Wednesday's last round of matches in Group D to determine their quarter final opponents.
