Medeama Soccer Club Chief Executive Officer [CEO], James Essilfie, has left his role after 13 years with the club.
Mr Essilfie resigned from his role on Friday, two days before the side’s trip to Techiman Eleven Wonders in the matchday three games of the 2021/22 Ghana Premier League games.
Essilfie’s resignation has opened up a can of worms amid a reported confusion that has hit the club’s top hierarchy in recent months.
“It has been the greatest privilege to serve Medeama Sporting Club for 13 wonderful years,” Essilfie said after his resignation.
“However, I have always been conscious of the fact that, as a member of staff, I was always just a temporary custodian of this marvellous institution.
