The 1-1 stalemate away to Techiman Eleven Wonders proved to be the last straw for the Yellow and Mauve board, who have already lined up his successor
Young and hard-talking Ignatius Osei-Fosu has been sacked by Medeama after only three games in charge in Ghana Premier League, with the club’s top hierarchy set to announce his replacement.
Ignatius was appointed permanent successor to Yaw Acheampong and Yaw Preko in August, with Medeama offering him an initial three-year contract subject to renewal.
However, things went north after only three games in Ghana Premier League as Medeama are yet to pick a win.
As a result, that agreement has been terminated early despite the Yellow and Mauve picking up a point against Eleven Wonders last weekend, which leaves them with two points and seven points behind leaders Asante Kotoko on the league log.
The Cameroonian striker was on target while skipper Abdul Ganiu returnee from international duties to help the Porcupine Warriors defeat the lower tier side in a training match on Tuesday
Cameroonian striker Etuoga Mbella Frank Thierry was on target when Asante Kotoko defeated lower division side Asekem FC 1-0 in a training match at the Adako Jachie training ground on Tuesday.
Kotoko used this game as a preparation for Ghana Premier League matchday four fixture against Techiman Eleven Wonders at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Saturday.
Following Kotoko’s narrow win over Gold Stars in Bibiani last weekend, coach Prosper Ogum Narteh opted to field fringe players for this game and rested those that played part in the victory over Gold Stars.
Young goalkeeper Danlad Ibrahim was handed a starting place ahead of Razak Abalora and Kwame Baah.
The back four was made of Augustine Agyapong, Charles Owusu, Abdul Ganiu Ismail who returned from international duties with Ghana as well as Imoro Ibrahim.
Also, Emmanuel Keyekeh started in midfield together with Sheriff Mohammed, Stephen Amankonah and Clinton Opoku while Cameroonian strikers Etuoga Mbella Frank Thierry and Mfegue George Rodrigues led the attack.
Kotoko had the first opportunity to take the lead by the 12th minute after Keyekeh combined beautifully to set up Mfegue but the striker’s effort narrowly missed the target.
However, his countryman Mbella showed him how to utilize half chances few minutes later.
The Cameroonian import latched on the ball after a mistake by the Asekem defenders and calmly sent in his last ditch effort beautifully.
Asekem were awarded a penalty to level the score after one of their strikers was clutched down in Kotoko’s penalty area. Unfortunately for them, the resulting kick was missed.
Mbella, according to AshesGyamera’s sources, could make his bow for Kotoko on Saturday following his consistent performance at training.

The World’s football governing body has on Tuesday confirmed that they have received a complaint from South Africa and will work on it
Fifa has confirmed that they have received an official protest from South Africa citing an alleged cheating in the World Cup qualifier against Ghana last weekend.
The Black Stars won 1-0 to make it to the playoffs of the World Cup qualifiers thanks to penalty awarded them after Senegalese referee Maguette Ndiaye adjudged Daniel Amartey was heckled down in the box.
The decision did not go down well with the top hierarchy of South Africa Football Association and they petitioned FIFA on Monday.
SAFA believes the referee could have been manipulated and that led to such decisions.
“FIFA has received a complaint from the South African FA in relation to this matter and will review it. Please understand we cannot comment further at this stage,” FIFA said on Tuesday in response to a media query over the status of the complaint by SAFA.
The Miners outgoing coach has aimed a dig at the club’s technical director after he was relieved off his duties
Ashanti Gold former coach Ernest Thompson Quartey has slammed the club’s technical director Da Rocha and further labels him as a snitch and hypocrite.
Quartey who was appointed as the new coach last month, was sacked from his position after only three games into the new Ghana Premier League season.
He won one game, shared the spoils in one and lost one last weekend against King Faisal at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi.
However, Quartey feels betrayed since he believes Da Rocha acted as of he was not involved in any of the decisions taken while he was at post.
“I built a strong relationship with him. We took decisions together but he painted a picture like we did not involved him in anything,” Quartey told Fox FM.
He has stabbed me in the back and whoever that will be appointed tobreooace me as the new coach must stay away from Da Rocha.
“He is not a good person and will likely undermine the person,” he added.
The Miners have relieved their coach off his duties following a slow start to the Premier League
Ghana Premier League side Ashanti Gold have terminated the contract of coach Ernest Thompson Quartey after only three games, AshesGyamera.com understands.
The Obuasi-based club began the season with a win over Techiman Eleven Wonders on opening day before they shared the spoils 1-1 with Karela at home.
However, they suffered a painful 2-0 defeat to King Faisal last weekend and that has led to the sacking of Quartey.
On Monday, the club’s technical director Ricardo Da Rocha was in charge of the team’s recovery training session after Quartey was told to step aside.
Ashanti Gold will host Hearts of Oak who are also yet to record a win this season on Sunday at the Len Clay Sports Stadium.
Any results apart from win for the Phobians could further invite pressure on Samuel Boadu who has gone four games without a win in all competitions.
The striker will spend the next two weeks in police custody after he was denied bail following his appearance in court
Former Hearts of Oak striker Gilbert Fiamenyo has been remanded in police custody for the next fourteen days by an Accra Circuit court, AshesGyamera.com can confirm.
The 30-year-old was reported to have attacked a police officer who was on duty after watching Ghana Premier League game between Hearts of Oak and Aduana Stars on Sunday.
Fiamenyo was later arrested by the police after the news about his attack went viral at the stadium.
At the Adjabeng District Court on Monday morning, Fiamenyo was charged with assault on security officer and although he defended himself, the judge insisted that he should be remanded and reappear in court two weeks time.
Fiamenyo, who previously had stints with Kenyan giants AFC Leopards, is currently a free agent after he parted ways with Lebanese side Al Nasr.
I am all against some uncouth persons using social media as medium in Going after people who never offend them.
I am not a saint, admittedly I have attacked the opinion of some persons I do not even know on this medium that if given another chance, I wouldn’t have reacted to their opinions the way I did.
It goes a long way to confirm that in the heat of things, people are likely to say things which may be quite distasteful.
On a universally accessible platform like Facebook, Twitter among other social media platforms, not everyone will have same temperament hence tolerance is one keyword which should guide all persons on these mediums.
This case of Nana Aba Anamoah and her brigade using a professional position to settle a seemingly personal vendetta against a young man is the lowest any reality show panel can go.
If Ghana was America, trust me sponsors of the show will pull out and other contestants will boycott it ultimately.
I cannot say much about Serwaa Amihere but Nana Aba Anamoah and Bridget Otoo are accomplices of the very thing they were displeased about the young man appearing before them doing.
If you follow them closely on Twitter, they go after people who disagree with their position on pressing issues over the least thing.
Either make a joke about their looks or General appearance or their grammar.
There are a dozen of instance Nana Aba Anamoah has tried ridiculing social media political activists who disagree with her on some political issues.
She takes no prisoners in stating how people are party FOOT-SOLDIERS all are clandestine approach to demean them among others.
To them, foot soldiers have no brain and if you dare disagree with one, they will ambush you and vilify you together with some of their none thinking followers.
Bridget Otoo does same, including Lydia Forson whom Nana Aba was fighting for on the panel.
These aforementioned three, if you disagree with them, you are always seen by them as uninformed, ignorant, jealous, low lifer among others.
The last time Nana Aba Anamoah tried that silly tactics on NDC social media activists on Facebook, it “Over Am” with the barrage of counter clap backs she received from some NDC activists.
I was particularly pleased that a number of sense was pumped into her on that occasion.
She ultimately restricted the comment section on that particular post, restricted comments on her general posts on Facebook for sometime and eventually deleted the post about NDC Foot-Soldiers which led to she being brutally taken to the cleaners.
If they(Nana Aba and Bridget Otoo) can wait for that long to payback their offender as they have done in their trending video, it shows how petty, uncouth and vindictive they are themselves.
Their conduct is not different from a presiding judge who refused looking at the substance of a case before him but sentenced the accused person based on a confrontation between him and the accused outside the courtroom.
Is Nana Aba and friends saying that if they were medical doctors, they will watch on for a patients they had a confrontation with on social media to die because they felt disrespected by his or her opinion?
Has Nana Aba herself not insulted and disrespected many people on her Twitter handle countless times?
Why then turn what should be a professional platform into settling a personal score ?
Young people go through many faces before carving the perfect niche for themselves behaviorally.
I trust that, in her current stage and position, Nana Aba Anamoah wouldn’t have even contemplated doing an embarrassing photoshop of visiting Old Trafford which led to her infamous Sack from Tv3 but life is a learning process.
They missed the opportunity of reforming the young man to be a decent human being without even letting the world know about it.
Collectively, leading social media platforms will have to do a lot more on their community standard to keep trolls and abusers in check.
That does not mean free speech should be restricted, if you are foolish you deserved to be called foolish with no apology.
The boy too what “ sort of this thing is that”😂
These bitter misandrists are people you have reportedly consistently disrespected, all in the name of savage replies and comments.
What was he thinking in going there to be vetted ?
Lessons all over to be learnt regardless but not obviously from Nana Aba and her sugar babies who are accomplices of cyber bullying and trolls.
The Ghanaian side became the first club to reach the final of the maiden competition on Monday
Ghana’s Hasaacas Ladies pipped Moroccan giants ASFAR 2-1 in the semifinals of the Women’s Caf Champions League to on Monday.
After securing a semifinals place with a game to spare last week, Hasaacas were made to work extra harder than their previous games.
Doris Boaduwaa shot Hasaacas Ladies ahead by the 34th minute with a good finish but ASFAR pulled even on the stroke of halftime.
After the break, Hasaacas had an opportunity to restore their lead after Veronica Appiah was played through but her last ditch effort missed the target.
The Ghanaian champions were handed a penalty by the 63rd minute but Perpetual Agyekum uncharacteristically saw her effort saved.
However, Evelyn Badu proved her importance once more in the competition. The well-built striker latched onto the ball to score the match winner.
The goal marked Badu’s fifth goal of the competition as she is now in a pole position to win the goal boot.
Hasaacas will face Mamelodi Sundown’s Women’s FC in the final after the South Club defeated Malabo Kings on penalties in the second semifinals.
