Head coach of Asante Kotoko, Prosper Narteh Ogum received a vote of confidence to continue guiding the team forward during a meeting with their life patron Otumfuo Osei Tutu II.
Earlier in the week the team was prevented from training ahead of their clash with table toppers Samatex.
Fans turned up at the Adako Jarchie training ground of Kotoko and were calling for the dismissal of head coach Dr. Prosper Ogum and his technical staff.
In a heartfelt address, His Royal Majesty, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, called upon the players of Asante Kotoko to rise above their recent struggles and uphold the club’s illustrious legacy with pride and determination.
Acknowledging the team’s recent string of winless matches, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II engaged in candid discussions with both players and the technical team to identify underlying issues contributing to the disappointing performances and to foster an environment of open communication and unity.
His Royal Majesty made it unequivocally clear that every member of the team ultimately serves the collective cause of Asante Kotoko under his stewardship.
He urged them to set aside any personal differences and rally together in pursuit of the team’s success, emphasizing his unwavering commitment to steering the club through challenging times.
During the meeting, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II revealed his substantial financial investment in clearing past debts amounting to some GHC 5 million, underscoring his dedication to ensuring the stability and prosperity of Asante Kotoko.
His resolute stance reflected a deep personal investment in the club’s future, echoing a sentiment of shared responsibility and collective effort among all involved.
Kotoko face a daunting task to turn around their woes in their next game against league leaders Samatex at the Baba Yara stadium.
