Emmanuel Addoquaye Pappoe (born March 3, 1981) is a Ghanaian football player who currently plays for AEK Larnaca in Cyprus.

He was part of the Ghanaian 2004 Olympic football team, who exited in the first round, having finished in third place in group B. Pappoe's hard work earned him a call up to the senior Ghanaian national team making his debut against Sierra Leone on the 19 October 2002.

Pappoe was selected to represent the Ghanaian national team at the 2006 FIFA World Cup. He made two appearances in what was seen as a successful tournament for the unfancied Africans. Despite losing to Italy in the opener, they managed to make the second round after overcoming Czech Republic 2-0 and the USA 2-1. Ghana bowed out to world powers Brazil in the second round encounter.

Prior to joining Hapoel Kfar Saba in 2005, Pappoe plied his trade for FC Ashdod for two years whom he joined in 2003.
