Asante Kotoko is still grappling with immense grief and shock following the tragic loss of devoted supporter Francis Yaw Frimpong, whose senseless murder has left an indelible mark.
The wounds from that dark day have not healed, and resolve for justice remains as strong as ever.
After careful consideration and consultations with our medical department, the club has been advised that our senior team should resume training from tomorrow to ensure the physical and mental well-being of our players.
While the pain of recent events still lingers, they also recognize the need to maintain the fitness and sharpness of our squad as they continue to demand accountability for the heinous acts committed against our club and our supporters.
In the pursuit of justice, the leadership of Asante Kotoko have held extensive engagements with the Minister of Sports, Hon. Kofi Adams, the Minister of Interior, Hon. Muntaka Mubarak, and the Inspector General of Police, Dr. George Akuffo Dampare.
These discussions have reassured that the wheels of justice are in motion, and are convinced that those responsible for this dastardly crime will be held to account.
Kotoko through this opportunity pleaded with the Attorney General’s department to intensify their efforts to ensure that this case is pursued with the urgency and seriousness it deserves.
Justice delayed is justice denied, and we will not rest until the perpetrators face the full force of the law.
The club also want to make it abundantly clear that this decision to resume training does not in any way alter our stance regarding footballing activities.
“We will not compete in any official matches until meaningful and decisive actions are taken to secure justice and protect the future of our game.” Club statement.
The Ghana Premier League has been on suspension since February 2, 2025 following the death Nana Pooley in Nsoatre when Kotoko engaged Nsoatreman in the Premier League’s match day 19.
