The seat of Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, the Manhyia Palace, has denied the resignation of Dr Kwame Kyei as the Board Chairman of Asante Kotoko.
On Wednesday morning, multiple reports went rife that the renowned and astute businessman left his role due to personal reasons.
On Tuesday, the board members of the club in a meeting with the life patron of the club, Otumfuo, were reportedly told by Dr Kyei that he was ready to quit his position for peace to prevail.
However, reports from Manhyia have revealed that the king has rejected his decision to quit the position.
According to the reports, Manhyia is highly impressed with how he led the club between 2018 and 2020.
