Stable management key to success during my tenure at Asante Kotoko, says former CEO Opoku Nti

Former Asante Kotoko CEO, Opoku Nti, has credited stable management for the club's success during his leadership.

Nti served as interim CEO for three months, during which he held regular one-on-one meetings with Otumfuo Osei Tutu II until a board was constituted.

Nti took over from Dr. KK Sarpong and led Asante Kotoko to win both the Ghana Premier League title and the FA Cup in 2014. He emphasized the importance of stable management and a cohesive technical team in achieving these victories.

"Immediately I took over they wanted to sack the coach [Didi Dramani] but I said no we need to maintain the coach because he has taken them through training for a while and he knows the boys," Nti told Joy Sports.

"So it went well right from the beginning because we were having a stable management and the technical side wasn't a problem," he added.

Nti's leadership and decision to maintain continuity with the technical team played a crucial role in Asante Kotoko's successful season.
