Ghana’s Four Old AFCON Trophies Reportedly Missing by kidap(op): 7:00am On Feb 17, 2022
Report has it that the four AFCON trophies won by Black stars of Ghana has gone missing, Ghanaian sportswriter, Saddick Adams revealed this.

The Black Stars of Ghana won the AFCON trophies in 1963, 1965, 1978 and 1982, and they are yet to win any major silverware since then.

Under CAF rules, teams that win the AFCON are given a replica of the trophy on a permanent basis and are allowed to keep the original trophy for the two years in-between tournaments before handing it back.

Teams are, however, allowed to keep the original trophy permanently when they win it thrice, an achievement that only Ghana, Cameroon and Egypt have so far attained.

Speaking about Ghana’s poor record of keeping relics, Angel FM sports journalist Saddick Adams said the replica AFCON trophies given to Ghana by CAF cannot be traced.

Speaking about Ghana’s poor record of keeping relics, Angel FM sports journalist Saddick Adams said the replica AFCON trophies given to Ghana by CAF cannot be traced.

According to Saddick Adams, who is the reigning Sports Writers Association of Ghana’s (SWAG) sports journalist of the year, he tried tracking the trophies before the 2019 AFCON and was told they were missing.

“You know that CAF gives you a replica when you win the trophy but then, you get the golden one when you win it for keeps [three times],” he said on his programme.

“Before the 2019 AFCON, I asked questions about the four trophies that we have won and I was told that we lost the trophies during the Coup when the National Sports Council Office was ransacked.”

I would gave accused Afonjas but there's no skull shape on the trophy so I have no idea who stole it.
