Asante Kotoko supporter Augustine Oppong sustained serious eye injury after he was hit with rubber bullets by a policeman after a Ghana Premier League match between Kotoko and Berekum Chelsea this season- a game in which the home side lost – and after a successful surgery fully funded by the Circles Council , Oppong will be made an official ambassador against fans hooliganism.
“The Natiional Circles Council of Kotoko will use Augustine Oppong as an ambassador and our reason is that we want other Kotoko supporters and fans to learn from this incident and it should serve as deterrent to them so that they change” a former Management member of the club and Cirlces member Nana Kwame Dankwa told Nhyira FM.
Meanwhile Augustine Oppong expressed his gratitude to the Circles leadership for coming to his aid following the surgery.
