Spiritualist claims to have orchestrated Kotoko’s victory in the Ghana Premier League last season
Atta Agyemang, a self-acclaimed numerologist, has claimed credit for Kumasi Asante Kotoko’s victory in the 2021/2022 Ghana Premier League.
Agyemang revealed that he was approached by several Kotoko officials following the club’s two straight losses to King Faisal. He hesitated at first but eventually agreed to assist the club in turning their fortunes around.
“As last season was going to an end, a schism developed among the officials who had hired me, and as a result, some of them discredited my work,” Agyemang explained. “I warned the officials about their actions and urged them to express gratitude to me or they would struggle the following season.”
Agyemang went on to say that Asante Kotoko’s troubles this season are the result of curses he placed on officials for their ingratitude.
Kotoko won the 2021/2022 Ghana Premier League, but Agyemang believes the club’s executives owe him thanks for his contribution to their victory.
“Five Kotoko officials approached me last season.” Commander Adusei, Chairman K5, and one other chairman who happens to be my godfather,” Agyemang added. “I took over the team from there.” I won seven matches in a row because I know what to do with the sun.”
Agyemang also cautioned Kotoko executives that if they did not recognise his services, they would struggle the following season.

Asante Kotoko terminates Fatawu Safiu’s contract due to medical failure
A club statement by Asante Kotoko on Monday evening indicates that Abdul Fatawu Safiu’s contract has been terminated due to medical reasons.
According to the Kumasi-based royal club, the former Al-Sinaa SC striker failed a mandatory medical assessment test as required by the Ghana Football Association, following the announcement of his signing on the registration deadline day.
The returnee striker who joined Kotoko from Eleven Wonders in November 2018, ahead of the 2018–19 CAF Confederation Cup campaign has been duly informed about the health-related issues which could rule him out for a long period.
Below is a full statement by Asante Kotoko
Asante Kotoko can confirm that it has relieved forward, Abdul Fatawu Safiu due to medical reasons.
Asante Kotoko entered into an employment contract with the player in order to meet registration deadlines as announced by the Ghana Football Association, and had to ensure that the player undergoes the pre-competition medical assessment which is the basic and compulsory requirement by the GFA.
This medical assessment was duly done awaiting further tests. The further assessment by the club’s medical team revealed other health related issues which could rule him out for a long period. The club, after being informed about the situation, concluded that continuing an employment contract with the player would not be of full benefit to both parties – the club and the player. Details of the specific medical condition have been clearly communicated to the player.
It is imperative to note that the GFA has rejected his registration, so keeping him would not be in the best interest of the club and the player, hence the decision to end the relationship.
The club wishes Abdul Fatawu Safiu the very best for the future and wish to assure him that he forever remains one of us, and he is welcome to serve in any capacity in the future.
Signed….
Management.
