Yamoah Ponko wishes to return to Kotoko as Chief Executive
Former management member of Asante Kotoko Afrifa
Yamoah Ponko has revealed his hidden ambition to
return to the club as Chief Executive.

The current Municipal Chief Executive of
Ejisu-Juaben was integral to Kotoko’s league
success in 2005 as the Operations Manager of the
side.

Ponko’s charisma endeared him to many Kotoko
fans and is still loved despite his veering into
politics.

But the tough-talking personality says he wishes
to return to lead Kotoko one day.

“This is a hidden ambition that I cannot
hide,” he told Metro FM.

“It is through Kotoko that I am where I am now.
Kotoko introduced me to almost everything in my
life.

“Football is related to politics. Talk of the
great men in politics but behind sports.

“If you to Italy you have the likes of [Silvio]
Berlusconi, if you come to Ghana you have the late
Professor Mills, everywhere.

“But for the mean time I have been entrusted
with a political task and that is where my focus
is.

“However if God grants me long life and good
health then definitely coming back to Kotoko is
something I will do.

“Now we have to put our support behind the
current leadership to ensure that the club becomes
successful.”
