Kotoko have confirmed that their chairman Dr Kofi Kodua Sarpong has resigned prematurely from his post, one of the club’s key communicators has revealed.

The astute chairman of the Porcupine Warriors threw in the towel on Friday to end his three years of service.

The chartered accountant told the wife of the owner of the club Otumfuo Osei Tutu II of his decision to leave the club.

“Dr Sarpong has informed the wife of Otumfuo Lady Julia of his decision to leave the club,” Nana Kwame Dankwa, one the club’s spokesmen told Happy FM on Monday morning.

The 59-year-old is incensed with the constant insults hurled at him by fans and allegations of financial misappropriation.

Dr Sarpong has helped to re-brand Kotoko by securing multiple sponsorship deals locally and the famous partnership agreement with English side Sunderland.

He has commenced work on the Kotoko Adako Jachie Project which involves a befitting training ground and office complex. The former Tema Oil Refinery boss has made attempts to revive the club’s academy.

Dr Sarpong won two back-to-back Ghana Premier League titles.
