PRESS STATEMENT BY HON. MINORITY LEADER IN RESPONSE TO A STORY PUBLISHED ON ASEMPANEWS.COM CAPTIONED “HARUNA IDDRISU TAKES OVER WA ALL STARS FROM KWESI NYANTAKYI”
My attention has been drawn to a story published by AsempaNews.com with the caption “HARUNA IDDRISU TAKES OVER WA ALL STARS FROM KWESI NYANTAKYI”. The said publication alleged that I, Haruna Iddrisu, had completed the takeover of Wa All Stars from former Ghana Football Association president, Mr Kwasi Nyantakyi. The publication further alleged that the Club will be renamed Steadfast FC to replace the Division One Club owned by me.
I wish to correct the record as follows:
1. That I have not completed or intend to takeover the ownership of Wa All Stars Football Club.
2. That I have not had discussions with Mr Nyantakyi on any matter relating to the takeover of Wa All Stars FC.

5. I wish to call on Management, Players and Supporters of Steadfast United to ignore the said publication and to stay united in order to realise the vision of the Club.
