‘It Is Just Media Hype’ - Ex-Kotoko Board Member Takes A Swipe At Nana Yaw Amponsah

Former Asante Kotoko board member, Benard Ziel has taken a swipe at Nana Yaw Amponsah as he describes him as a braggart with a lot of media hype.

This comes on the back of a report from Kumasi which has indicated that the owner of Division One League club Phar Rangers is set to be announced as the new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Ghanaian giants.

In an interview with Kumasi FM, Benard Ziel has indicated that he will be surprised if the recently constituted board of directors of Asante Kotoko named Nana Yaw Amponsah as the new CEO of the club.

“I will be very astonished if the board of directors decides to appoint a CEO for now, they must exercise patience in executing their duties. I do not know the reason for the rush. They must also consult a lot. There are a lot of things at Asante Kotoko that need urgent attention i.e the secretariat and Adako Jachie”, the former board member of the Porcupine Warriors said.

According to Bernard Ziel, Nana Yaw Amponsah is a braggart who has not achieved enough to merit the CEO job of Asante Kotoko at this point in time.

“What are the achievements of Nana Yaw Amponsah to be given a huge job as the Asante Kotoko CEO? No one has been able to enumerate his achievements.

“It is only a media hype, he has done nothing distinctively to deserve the CEO position of Kotoko.

“What has such a braggart like Nana Yaw Amponsah done, has he built a stadium for a club or purchase an airplane for a club?

“The board should have advertised the position or seek advice from a consortium, that could have brought varied people on board”, Bernard Ziel added.

It is understood that the board of directors of Asante Kotoko will officially unveil, Nana Yaw Amponsah as the new CEO of the club on Friday, August 7, 2020.
