Board member of Kumasi Asante Kotoko, Dr Kofi Amoa Abban, has donated a car each to newly appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and head coach to aid their work.

Dr Abban handed over keys to a Toyota Prado to head of management Nana Yaw Amponsah while coach Maxwell Konadu received a Toyota Fortuna.

“This is something from me to Coach Maxwell Konadu and Nana Yaw Amponsah to help them give their best to our club,” he told Opemsuo Sports.
