Ghana Football Association (GFA) President, Kurt Okraku, has made a heartfelt plea for those with information to help identify the killer of Yaw Frimpong, popularly known as Nana Pooley.
Meeting with Asante Kotoko for the first time since Pooley’s tragic death, Okraku discussed the incident and the way forward for Ghanaian football. He urged anyone who witnessed the fatal stabbing to step forward and ensure justice is served.
“When that tragic act occurred in Nsoatre, there was someone present with the person who took Nana Pooley’s life. That person must be honest with football and reveal the killer’s identity. It’s a painful moment, but also an opportunity to make a positive impact on our game,” Okraku stated.
He acknowledged the ongoing challenges in Ghana football but remained hopeful for change. “I have always said that the journey to transform our football is tough and rough, and right now, we are facing one of our toughest moments. But we will get through it,” he added.
Meanwhile, Asante Kotoko has resumed training as momentum builds for the return of the Ghana Premier League. The league was suspended due to concerns over hooliganism, with Kotoko and Hearts of Oak leading calls for stricter measures to curb violence.
Reports indicate that the league could resume on March 1, with FA Cup matches scheduled for this weekend.
