President of Ghana premier league side New Edubiase United, Abdul Salam Yakubu has abandoned his mother club as a result of internal squabbling with some partners of the club in recent times.

Salam formed the club from the second division and roused to the elite league and have survived for the past three seasons. The club won this year’s MTN FA Cup and is billed to face league champions Kumasi Asante Kotoko on Sunday at the Accra Sports Stadium for the Super Cup.

The former president is surprised at what is happening to his club and have decided to stay off and save his life.

“I am no longer the president of New Edubiase United even though I formed the club, my life is at risk if I continue to hold on to that position also I need to concentrate on my business” he told Asempa sports.

Abdul Salam has fingered his brother Joe Abu Salam as the cause of his withdrawal from the club. The Edubiase side was in the news on Monday about a misunderstanding between the club and its sponsor SIDALCO which is disappointed.

New Edubiase represents Ghana in the CAF Confederation Cup competition next year after winning the MTN FA
