Ex-Hearts of Oak striker Mahatma Otoo slams club’s decision to adopt Baba Yara as home venue for Kotoko clash

Former Accra Hearts of Oak striker Mahatma Otoo has slammed the club’s decision to play their Ghana Premier League home matches in Kumasi.

Hearts were beaten 2-3 by their arch rivals Asante Kotoko in their recent home match at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi.

The club relocated its home games to Kumasi following the temporary closure of the Accra Sports Stadium due to scheduled Christmas events.

But Mahatma, who won the Premier League top scorer with Hearts in 2010, expressed his disapproval with the club’s decision to make Baba Yara their home venue against Kotoko.

He blamed the loss against Kotoko to the poor decision from the club.

“What is he even complaining about, how on earth can you choose to play your home game against Kotoko of all teams in Kumasi, You knew very well they won’t allow you do certain things there so why choose Kumasi. It’s because of money, you got money and they got the 3 points, You guys don’t think about the supporters,” he wrote on Facebook.

Hearts of Oak is currently ninth on the league table with 17 points from 15 games.
