Black Stars midfielder Mohammed Kudus expressed his frustration after enduring persistent criticism from Frank Kwaku Appiah, popularly known as Appiah Stadium, a well-known member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and serial caller.

The West Ham United player found himself in an exchange with Appiah Stadium at the Prempeh I International Airport while preparing to fly with the Black Stars to Morocco for their Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Niger.

Kudus had stopped to take photos with excited airport staff when Appiah Stadium, who was present at the scene, began criticizing the player, accusing him of underperforming for the national team compared to his club performances.

Initially, Kudus ignored the remarks, focusing on the fans. However, as the negative comments persisted, Kudus eventually replied, asking, if Appiah Stadium needed the goals more than him.

Despite pleas from airport staff and onlookers urging Appiah Stadium to stop harassing the footballer, the criticisms continued.

Kudus, visibly frustrated, soon left to rejoin his teammates and coaching staff as they departed for Morocco on Saturday, September 7, 2024.

In another video, Appiah Stadium is also seen commending Jordan Ayew but urging him to smile more when he is on the pitch.

The Black Stars will face Niger on Monday, September 9, in their second match of the 2024 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. Ghana lost their opening game 1-0 to Angola at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi.
