Asante Kotoko’s Interim Management Committee (IMC) has reiterated their support for Prosper Narteh Ogum, despite his under-fired coaching record in the Ghana Premier League.

Ghana Premier League side Kotoko has struggled since the league’s resumption, winning only one of six games in the second round.

The Ghanaian giants have dropped from the top four to the 9th position after 23 matches.

Media reports earlier suggested that coach Ogum has three games to redeem himself or risk the sack.

The club has retracted reports of Ogum’s involvement, as the IMC has backed him to rectify the situation.

“The IMC acknowledges the concerns raised by our cherished supporters regarding our current situation. It must be placed on record that management is equally not enthused with our results and deems it unacceptable”.

“However, the IMC is committed to ensuring that there is a quick turnaround in our current fortunes.
In our quest to achieve this, various steps have been taken, including an emergency meeting with the coaching staff and not the dismissal of the head coach”

“We, therefore, urge our fans and all stakeholders to remain calm and continue to support our club in these turbulent times”, the statement affirmed.

“We also thank you for all the concerns raised as well as your contributions, for which the IMC will give the needed consideration. In the meantime, we all must unite and have absolute trust in our coaches to reclaim the stride with which we ended the first round”.

Kotoko is set to face Bechem United on Saturday, aiming to bounce back to winning ways.
