The wife of Hearts of Oak goalkeeper, Richard Attah has made damning allegations of how Hon. Vincent Sowah Odotei and his compatriot, Alhaji Akanbi, orchestrated the sacking of former gaffer, Samuel Boadu.

According to Joyce Attah who labelled Odotei and Akanbi as ‘Aki and Pawpaw’ the two made selections for the former coach in the build-up to the super clash between Asante Kotoko and Hearts in order for the Accra-based club to concede more goals to influence the sack of the former coach.

Dissatisfied with a penalty call by the referee in the last stages of the game, a group of irate supporters resorted to violent behaviour. In protest, chairs were allegedly smashed, and items were hurled into the pitch.
