The management of Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko in a joint statement have proposed to the Ghana Football Association (GFA) to provide 20 soldiers to be stationed at match centres.
Following the unfortunate death of famous Kotoko supporter “Nana Pooley” and hooliganism in the Ghana Premier League (GPL), the two clubs have joined forces in solidarity to ensure tight security at venues.
In a proposal letter addressed to the GFA, the two clubs suggested that at least 20 military officers be assigned to Category A matches and some high-risk Category B matches.
They also recommended that security personnel should be sourced from different regions rather than the locality of the match venue and that security cameras be installed at all league centres.
Other security-related proposals included conducting a new risk assessment to properly categorize matches and relocating games from venues that do not meet the necessary safety standards.
The Ghana Premier League is currently on hold awaiting an investigation into the deceased Kotoko fan’s death.
