Asante Kotoko Chief Executive Officer, Nana Yaw Amponsah insists that the two-time CAF Champions League winners are bigger than the New Patriotic Party(NPP) and National Democratic Congress(NDC).
The NPP and NDC have been ruled Ghana since the start of the 4th Republic in 1990.
Asante Kotoko have won twenty-five League titles and two CAF- Champions League titles.
Speaking at his unveiling, Nana Yaw Amponsah divided opinion when he said: "Asante Kotoko is the biggest club in Ghana, no doubt. And for me, it's the third biggest club in Africa, in structure. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of its content."
"I dare say that Asante Kotoko is bigger than NPP and NDC. Kotoko transcends boundaries. Kotoko is a culture."
Asante Kotoko will be competing in the CAF Champions League after winning the Ghana Premier League last season.
The 2019 GFA Presidential candidate insists that Asante Kotoko is bigger than NPP and NDC, as he explained his point on the Dentaa Show.
"I still stand by my words that Asante Kotoko is bigger than NDC and NPP but people didn't understand me well," he said.
"I was not born yet but I heard CPP was very big in the 1960s but where are they now."
"Now NPP and NDC are big now but that can change in the next couple of years because the political terrain changes but Asante Kotoko was big, still a huge institution, and will be bigger in the future," he declared.
