The Communication Director  of the Greater Accra Regional Circles Council of Kumasi Asante Kotoko ,Seth Nii Darko has slammed  former Accra Hearts of Oak player Esme Mends.

The midfielder in a recent interview branded new Kotoko CEO Nana Yaw Amponsah as a charlatan who is bound to fail in his new role as Kotoko CEO.

He further questioned why a delicate job like the Kotoko one will be handed over to a nobody like Nana Yaw Amponsah among others.

According to Nii Darko, Esme Mends' comments is an affront to the eminent 12 member board constituted by the life patron of the club Otumfour Osei Tutu II

"His comments is an insult to the 12 board constituted by His Royal Majesty" he told ASHH FM

"Esme Papa Mends is a total failure in his football career"

"Nana Yaw Amponsah has come to a club with a very big brand and we will not allow anybody to run Nana Yaw Amponsah down because if the CEO fails now then Kotoko has failed."

"I don't care his relationship with Nana Yaw Amponsah but it was very unnecessary for making such comments

Our interest is to protect the brand of Kotoko"

"Asante Kotoko lacks nothing there are a lot of interesting and better things coming to Kotoko" he added.
