Kenpong gives Kotoko cash, mourns Attuquayefia

Kenpong Group president, Kennedy Agyapong has presented Asante Kotoko with GHC10,000 cash at his plush Airport West office in Accra.

The cash donation, received by Edmund Ackah, the Club’s Accra representative was to cover the club’s one week camping and hotel accommodation bills.

The General Manager of Asante Kotoko after the presentation expressed sincere thanks to Mr Agyapong for the support.

“We thank Kenpong for the support; it came at the right time and it will help us foot our bills. He has always been there for us.

“There are many who love the club but he stands tall when it comes to supporting the club financially and I believe that is why the fans love and respect him. We are most grateful, God bless him so much.”

Kenpong has been a regular financial pillar behind the Porcupine Warriors from the days of Herbert Mensah through Sylvester Asare, PV Obeng, Major Yaw Larsen, KK Sarpong to the current administration.

Kotoko are preparing feverishly for the second round of the First Capital Plus Premier League.

Meanwhile, Kenpong has sent a message of condolence to the families of coach Jones Attuquafio, who passed on today after battling a throat ailment.

Kenpong was one of the major financial contributors to the former Hearts of Oak’s charity match played few years ago in Accra.
