Ignatius Baffour Awuah, the owner of Nsoatreman FC, has been arrested according to reports in connection with the death of Asante Kotoko fan, Francis Yaw Frimpong, known as “Pooley.”
The arrest follows a violent incident during the Matchday 19 fixture between Nsoatreman FC and Asante Kotoko at Nana Kronmansah Park, where Frimpong was fatally stabbed.
Baffour Awuah, a former Minister of Employment and Labour Relations and ex-MP for Sunyani West, is facing charges of conspiracy to commit murder and inciting violence, which allegedly contributed to the fatal altercation.
Authorities are investigating the incident, and Deputy Commissioner of Police Lydia Donkor has been appointed to lead the inquiry.
