The Chief Executive Officer of Young Apostles, Gerald Domfeh, has announced that the Wenchi-based club has reversed its earlier decision to boycott the Ghana Premier League.
The team had threatened to withdraw from the topflight following what they described as unfair officiating in their 2-2 draw against Hohoe United on Matchday 19.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ultimate Sports Show, Domfeh confirmed that the club will continue its league campaign after a management review.
“We had a meeting to review our performance for the first half of the season with the management, but we have come to the conclusion that we will not boycott the league. We will continue to play and compete well in the league,” he said.
Domfeh explained that the initial boycott threat was due to dissatisfaction with some decisions made by match officials.
“Our initial decision was based on grievances over unfair officiating. We were just not happy with some of the things that were happening, and that influenced my decision to come on the radio to threaten a boycott,” he added.
The CEO also issued an apology for his earlier remarks.
“I apologise for my earlier remarks by threatening to boycott playing in the Premier League,” Domfeh stated.
Young Apostles will now focus on their next fixture, traveling to face Dreams FC at the Tuba Astro Turf in their Matchday 20 clash.
