Ghana FA Normalisation Committee condemns gunshots incident in Berekum

Ghana Football Association Normalisation Committee (NC) has issued a statement following Sunday’s acts of violence at the Berekum Golden City Park before match between Berekum Chelsea and Asante Kotoko.

Gunshots were heard outside the facility, which security operatives said were fired by Kotoko’s policy analyst Amo Sarpong in response to an attack by the home fans on Kotoko’s operations officer.

Both officials sustained injuries and were rushed to Sunyani Government hospital for treatment. They have been discharged since.
