Former Black Stars captain Stephen Appiah is reportedly lacing his boots to contest the Ayawaso West Wuogon (AWW) seat in the 2024 elections.

A social media post by the spokesperson of the Ayew family, Fiifi Tackie indicates that the former Juventus star will compete for the seat as an independent candidate.

“Stephen Appiah to contest Ayawaso West Wuogon constituency as an independent Parliamentary candidate,” he wrote on X (formerly Twitter) on Friday, April 26, 2024.

If confirmed, Stephen Appiah will be joining Executive Council Member of the Ghana Football Association, Frederick Acheampong as the two leading football personalities gunning for seats in the next parliament.

Frederick Acheampong won the New Patriotic Party’s parliamentary primaries for the Ahafo Ano South East constituency.

He polled 164 votes to represent the NPP in the 2024 general elections.

Stephen Appiah will be battling Lydia Seyram Alhassan of the NPP and John Dumelo of the NDC for the AWW seat.
