NDC activist, Appiah Stadium

Ghanaian business mogul Ibrahim Mahama has had recourse to publicly scold Frank Kwaku Appiah, popularly known as Appiah Stadium, for his public approach towards President John Dramani Mahama.

In a viral video, Ibrahim Mahama, who is President Mahama's brother, is seen being ushered into a public function where he meets Appiah Stadium among the crowd.

In a brief interaction with the activist, Ibrahim Mahama expressed concern over Appiah Stadium's seemingly aggressive approach towards President Mahama in public, stating, "It is not nice."

The rest of their conversation, however, is not clear due to the loudness of the music at the event and the cheering from the crowd.

Appiah Stadium was recently blocked from accessing President Mahama when he approached the President at a funeral on February 7, 2025, at Burma Camp.

Mahama, who was among the dignitaries attending the funeral of the late Chief of Defence Staff, Lieutenant General Arnold Quainoo, was captured leaving the premises when Appiah Stadium attempted to approach him as he boarded his vehicle.

However, military and police officers prevented him from getting close to the statesman.

Appiah Stadium was heard shouting his name to the President to get his attention.

He later managed to get closer to the presidential vehicle when a staff member lowered the front passenger side window to speak with him.

Appiah Stadium, a confessed fanatic of President Mahama, has been open about his unconditional love for the President and the benefits he has gained through his relationship with the Mahamas.

However, some critics have raised concerns over his aggressive approach to the President and other notable figures, which is sometimes seen as going against protocol.
