Kotoko vice-chairman resigns

Kennedy Agyepong, the hardworking Vice-chairman of Africa Cup Winners Cup title aspirants, Kumasi Asante Kotoko, has resigned his position in the club. The young and affable Agyepong, known to have bankrolled the club in very crucial periods since he joined the management four years ago, gave ‘personal reasons’ for his resignation.

But observers of the goings-on in Kotoko believe that the Vice-chairman’s resignation might have been influenced by some conflicts within the ranks of management.


In a letter of resignation to the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the club on Thursday, Agyepong expressed his pain at taking this decision, being “one of the benefactors and administrators of the club” for which he has for the past four years devoted his “time, energy and resources”.


The shy-looking but enterprising Kennedy Agyepong, however, assured all followers of Kotoko that he would still continue to support the club to win laurels for the nation.

“Having seen the club come this far, I wish to assure you that I will continue to take keen interest and support the club at this critical stage in its quest to be crowned Africa Champions and return the Golden Fleece to its rightful home, and will, therefore, fully assist the club in its efforts during the two-leg final and will be present at the final in Kumasi on December 8, 2002.”


He asked for forgiveness “if in the course of my involvement in the administration of the club, I have in any way offended any parties, either as individuals or as a group”.
