Grace Ashy
Gospel musician Grace Ashy has alleged that a remark by former Black Stars captain Stephen Appiah made her lose interest in supporting the national team.
In a video shared on X on October 6, 2025, Grace Ashy alleged that Stephen Appiah once told her to stop supporting the Black Stars if the state was not paying her.
She explained that the incident happened at an airport when she was helping to mobilise fans for a Ghana versus Gambia match in Kumasi.
According to her, Stephen Appiah’s words hurt her deeply because she had been a loyal team supporter for years.
“I was very sad when he said that. Since then, even one of my team members has stopped supporting the Black Stars,” she said.
Grace Ashy was widely known for her energetic songs and strong support for the Black Stars during their major tournaments at the time.
