Former Asante Kotoko management member Alhaji Abu Lamini has called on the club’s supporters to rally behind the newly appointed board and management, saying their rebuilding strategy can restore the Porcupine Warriors to the top of Ghanaian and African football.
The long-serving club official said he had been encouraged by the vision of the new leadership following discussions with its members after their appointment by Kotoko Life Patron, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, at the end of the 2025/26 season.
The new board is chaired by James Osei Brown, with Kwasi Osei Ofori serving as vice-chairman, while businessman Kofi Amoah-Abban is among its members.
Lamini believes the new leadership has both the ambition and commitment to revive a club whose recent performances have fallen short of its illustrious history.
“I know the board members, I have interacted with them and I can tell they have a great plan and are determined to ensure Kotoko recaptures the great heights the club once occupied,” he told Graphic Online.
He also praised what he described as the board’s willingness to engage with the wider Kotoko family.
“In my interactions with them, I became convinced they are very open and ready to work closely with the supporters, former players, former board members and other stakeholders to ensure Kotoko not only dominate Ghana football but also become a force to reckon with in African football once again,” he said.
Kotoko have already begun their 2026/27 Ghana Premier League campaign with an opening-day 2-2 draw against newcomers Debibi United at the Golden City Park in Berekum.
The Porcupine Warriors will now turn their attention to their first home fixture of the season against Heart of Lions on Sunday.
