Following the dissolution of the 12-member Asante Kotoko board, the club's Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Nana Yaw Amponsah has been relieved off his role with an immediate effect.
The three-year tenure of the Asante Kotoko board and management ended on Monday, July 3, 2023 following the decision from the Manhyia Palace to dissolve the current leadership of the club.
Amponsah, who was appointed in August 2020 to lead the club's management, had initially enjoyed a successful start, with Asante Kotoko winning the Ghana Premier League during the 2021/22 season
It is believed that the longstanding rift between the Board Chairman, Dr. Kwame Kyei and the Chief Executive Officer Nana Yaw Amponsah forced the owners of Asante Kotoko to dissolve the board.
The board comprised of Dr Kwame Kyei, as Board Chairman; Mr Jude Arthur- Vice Chairman, Kwadwo Boateng Gyamfi, Kwasi Osei Ofori, Kwamena Mensah, Miss Evelyn Nsiah Asare, Mr Kofi Amoah Abban, Mr Martin Osei Kwaku Brobbey, Mr James Osei Brown, Mr Kofi Amo ah Abban, MD of Rickworld Oil Group, Mr Martin Osei Kwaku Brobbey, CEO of Lexta Ghana Limited, Mr James Osei Brown, CEO Joshob Construction Company, Nana Ankobeahene of Asanteman – Baffour Kwame Kusi, Alhaji Lamin and Joseph Yaw Adu.
