Mr Linford Asamoah Boadu, Chief Executive Officer of Kotoku Royals, during the presentation of the team’s jersey to Mr Osafo-Maafo in his office in Accra, thanked him for his contribution to the qualification of the team and expressed gratitude to the Akyem Kotokuman Parliamentary Caucus for their support.

“The journey to qualification to the Premier League was very tough, having started from Division Three, and I want to thank all who contributed towards achieving; this target.

“Now, the task is to sustain our Premier League status for a long period of time, and I would urge all parliamentarians within the Akyem area and the Senior Presidential Advisor to support our preparation for the next season’s league,” Mr Asamoah Boadu said.

Mr Osafo-Maafo, who is a former Member of Parliament for Akim Oda, congratulated the team for making history by becoming the first team from Akyem Kotokuman to play in the Premier League.

“You have brought honour to the people of Akyem Kotukuman and I congratulate you on the milestone. I urge you to be very disciplined and work hard to move to greater heights.
