An emotional Kotoko midfielder Michael Akuffo has passed a damning verdict on the club's management, labeling as 'very wicked' inhumane treatment meted out to him.

The 30-year-old is bitter after the club told him to look elsewhere despite his years of dedicated service.

The former WAFA trainer resumed training with the Porcupine Warriors after recovering from an injury.

But says the club treated him poorly after claiming he was unfit to continue his career.

"Kotoko management took my medical report and told me their doctor told them I cannot play football again," he practically cried on Kumasi-based Angel FM

"This happened when I went there to take my four months unpaid salary.

"This current Kotoko management are very wicked.They are very wicked."

He added: Players on the injury list are taken care off by Kotoko. But I suffered the setback and the club is pretending they don't know me.

"If your are not ready to help me why then are you not willing to pay me my monthly salary which is 4 months.

"If you are a human being and you will never understand and will ask yourself what is my crime to deserve this from Kotoko? he quizzed

It's a shocking turn of event for a player who has shown tremendous commitment to the club since he joined from WAFA four years ago.
