Former Sports Minister Calls For GFA To Investigate Kotoko - Jagodina Game

Punish Kumas Asante Kotoko If …

Former Deputy Sports Minister O.B Amoah has called on Ghana Football Association to investigate and possibly sanction Kotoko if they erred in anyway with the much talked about 80th anniversary game.

 

Kotoko hosted Serbian super liga side, FK Jagodina on Sunday to commemorate the clubs’s 80th anniversary. The gamed ended with the Ghanaian club thrashing the Serbians by 5 – goals to nil with media reports claiming FK Jagodina arrived with 11 – reserve players and had to sneak into their team some players from the local clubs, notably Techiman city player and this has angered the club’s CEO, Micky Charles who has threatened to sue Jagodina – but that is for another day.

 

O.B. Amoah who was deputy minister for Youth and sports when Ghana qualified for her first World cup in 2006 believes he has identified some anomalies with the organisation of the match and suggest the right sanction if there’s the need for any should be applied.

In an interview as a special guest on Accra based radio, Asempa FM, Mr. Amoah said, “In fact, GFA must investigate this matter.” It is a serious issue. The fact that GFA has sanctioned the match doesn’t mean you can do anything you like  the Member of Parliament for Aburi-Nsawam added.

 

He ended with a caution for all claiming, “We will be setting a bad precedence when we let this thing go without the right sanctions.”

 

Many Kotoko fans feel angry and disappointed by the level of organization of the game and the strength of the opposition and ‘shame’ their club has been put through.
