Ghanaian giants Asante Kotoko SC are on the verge of a major leadership shake-up, with life patron Otumfuo Osei Tutu II expected to announce a new board to replace the club’s current Interim Management Committee (IMC).
The IMC, chaired by Nana Apinkra Akwasi Awuah, has overseen the club’s affairs since the dissolution of the previous board in 2023. However, sources indicate growing dissatisfaction within the club’s hierarchy, with plans underway to dissolve the committee in March.
💰 Financial Struggles Behind Decision
The IMC’s tenure has reportedly been hampered by difficulties in generating sufficient internal revenue to sustain the club’s operations — a key factor believed to have influenced the decision to restructure leadership.
According to reports, the incoming board will be led by prominent businessmen Kwasi Osei Ofori and Kofi Amoa-Abban, who are expected to unveil their management team and oversee Kotoko’s operations for the next five years.
🔄 Familiar Faces Return
Both Osei Ofori and Amoa-Abban previously served on Kotoko’s board prior to its dissolution in 2023. During their earlier tenure, they reportedly invested over GH¢2 million into the club and provided logistical support, including vehicles for the technical team — demonstrating a hands-on commitment to the Porcupine Warriors.
Mr. Osei Ofori, CEO of Rocksure International, brings decades of experience in construction, mining, and equipment rentals across West Africa and Europe. Meanwhile, Dr. Amoa-Abban, founder and CEO of Rigworld Group, is a leading figure in Ghana’s oil and gas sector with business interests spanning Africa, Europe, and Asia.
The anticipated board restructuring signals Kotoko’s intent to stabilise administration, strengthen financial management, and reposition the club for sustained success both on and off the pitch.
