In the aftermath of the incident during the Matchweek 33 of the Ghana Premier League clash with Basake Holy Stars in Ampain, Nations FC has expressed growing disillusionment with the state of Ghanaian football, questioning the league’s integrity and safety.
Kennedy Boakye Ansah, Brands and Marketing Manager of Nations FC, has revealed the bizarre incident that occurred at Anyinase , saying the club is no longer interested in continuing under such conditions.
“Everything depends on the report of the Match Commissioner. We will file an official complain to the GFA and we will see whatever decision the FA will take. We are not interested in Ghana football anymore. We are tired,” he cried out.
The match, held at the AAK Sports Arena in Ampain in the Western Region, was marred by chaos, with reports of hostile treatment toward Nations FC officials and players, questionable officiating, and alleged security lapses.
According to Boakye Ansah, the environment was hostile from the outset, culminating in threats and intimidation that, he believes, undermined the very spirit of the sport.
“You just wanted three points and threatened lives. They told us either we lose the game or they kill someone,” he continued. “This prompted our decision not to continue the match. For now, they should take their league.”
This is not the first time Nations FC has raised concerns about matchday incidents and the treatment of clubs playing away from their home. But Sunday’s events in Ampain appear to have pushed the club to the edge.
Boakye Ansah’s comments have sparked fresh debate over the professionalism and governance of top-tier football in Ghana. The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has yet to comment on the matter, but pressure is mounting for a full investigation into the events surrounding the Basake Holy Stars vs. Nations FC encounter—and whether meaningful action will follow, or yet another warning will fade into silence
