George Afriyie visits remanded Techiman Eleven Wonders duo
Former Ghana Football Association Presidential hopeful, Mr. George Afriyie has on Wednesday paid a visit to incarcerated Techiman Eleven Wonders duo of Aminu Adams and Ernest Amo.
The two members of Ghana Premier League side Techiman Eleven Wonders have been remanded for two weeks by an Accra High Court.
The duo are midfielder Mohammed Amin Adams and team manager of the club Ernest Amo who have been accused of allegedly assaulting referee Eric Sefa Antwi on Saturday after their league game against Accra Lions.
Techiman Eleven Wonders blamed the defeat on the match officials for denying them what they thought was a clean goal and also sending off one of their players.
The game had to be halted for more than 15 minutes before it continued as Eleven Wonders felt they were being handed a raw deal by the referee.
The away side thought they had scored the opener in the early stages of the game but the goal was chalked off for offside.
After recess, Accra Lions grew into the game and nearly took the lead after Frederick Asante rounded off the Techiman Eleven Wonders goalie but blasted wide.
The home side finally broke the deadlock in the 78th minute through the influential Frederick Asante to give Lions the lead.
Eleven Wonders were reduced to ten men after midfielder Amin Adams was shown his marching orders in the 85th minute for abusing one of the assistant referees as Accra Lions ended the game 1-0.
They were arrested by the Police at the Stadium on Saturday and were in Police custody before they were arraigned before an Accra High Court on Monday morning.
Neither Techiman Eleven Wonders nor the Ghana Football Association have released a statement on the matter.
