Ghana football united on Wednesday to offer support to tragedy-hit Ghanaian giants Asante Kotoko following a fatal accident that killed one person.
Tragedy struck on Wednesday night after Kotoko’s deputy equipment officer Kofi Asare died on the spot as the team bus rammed into a snail-moving truck on their return to Kumasi after a league match in Accra.
