King Faisal’s bankroller, Alhaji Abdul Karim Grusah, has expressed his gratitude to Allah after escaping a fatal accident.
The accident occurred on the Kumasi-Tamale road as he and two others, the Operations Manager of the club, Nana Amankwah, and his driver, were returning to Kumasi after their Ghana Premier League week 30 game against Tamale City.
Grusah had initially planned to spend the night in Tamale after the game, as he was also scheduled to attend a funeral. However, the team’s 4-0 defeat made him change his mind and return to Kumasi instead.
Their SUV collided with a parked vehicle a few minutes away from Kintampo, but all three men managed to escape without serious injuries.
Grusah attributed their survival to Allah, saying, “We were saved by Allah. While going to play the game, I had prepared to sleep over because I would also attend a funeral over there. But after the 4-0 defeat, I got worried and asked the boys we should move back to Kumasi.
“On the way, we were greeted with this accident. They received treatment at the Techiman Hospital and were later discharged, and are scheduled to return to the hospital the following day”
