Nsoatreman FC has officially responded to the tragic passing of Asante Kotoko supporter, Francis Frimpong, popularly known as Nana Pooley.
Pooley was fatally stabbed by unidentified attackers during the Matchday 19 fixture between Nsoatreman and Kotoko at the Nana Kronmansah Park.
Following the incident, the Ghana Premier League was temporarily suspended, with Asante Kotoko demanding justice and threatening to withdraw from active competition until the case was resolved.
Police investigations have since identified a suspect, Brimah, as the alleged perpetrator, though he remains on the run.
In a statement released on Monday, Nsoatreman FC reaffirmed its commitment to ensuring that those truly responsible are held accountable.
“Life is precious and it is condemnable when life like that of Francis Yaw Frimpong (Nana Pooley) is lost in such a manner,” Nsoatreman said in a statement released.
“It is important to state on record that since the said death, management has been assisting the police with investigating the circumstances of the death, and in bringing to justice the person(s) who are accomplice in the death of Nana Pooley.
“It is the believe of management that the real culprits will be brought to book and justice served.”
