The Porcupine Warriors boss believes he has what it takes to lead the Black Stars since it is a national duty
Asante Kotoko coach Prosper Ogum Narteh has confirmed his readiness to coach Black Stars in future whenever he is contacted by Ghana Football Association.
In recent weeks, a section of Ghanaians, including former Ghana FA president Dr. Nyaho Nyaho Tamakloe has led a campaign to hand over the Black Stars to Ogum following his wonderful start at Asante Kotoko.
Although, Kotoko have been knocked out of the FA Cup, Ogum seems to be working magic in the Premier League as Kotoko currently lead the log with six points advantage and still have a game in hand.
What makes his works enviable is opening a ten-point gap between his side and fierce rivals Hearts of Oak ahead of th start of the second half of th season.
And with the Black Stars failing woefully at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations where they fell to minnows Comoros and Morocco, many believe Ogum is the right man to start a golden generation of players.
Currently, Otto Addo has been appointed as the interim coach and will be assisted by Mas-Ud Didi Dramani and George Boateng as Ghana prepare to face Nigeria in 2022 Fifa World Cup last qualifying round.
“It is a national call and when the days comes and I’m available I think once it is national duty, we will all rise up to the call,” Ogum said in an interview with StarTimes as quoted by AshesGyamera.com.
“I think probably he has sat from afar and he has seen what I’m doing and per his astuteness, I mean we know him to be following football for over decades, I mean so many years as a seasoned football administrator so I think per his experience and per what he has seen about me and being there as a former Ghana Football Association president and with the Black Stars and knowing what the dynamics of what goes in at the Black Stars, probably that is making him to take that informed decision about me,” he added.
Ogum has tasted only two defeats in the league and was adjudged the Coach of the Month of November.
