Former Asante Kotoko star Charles Taylor has joined the chorus of voices urging coach Prosper Narteh Ogum to step down from his position to salvage his reputation.
Ogum, who previously guided the team to success in the Ghana Premier League, is currently facing challenges in his second stint with the club.
Following Kotoko’s recent 2-1 defeat against Nsoatreman, marking their fifth loss in six games, concerns over Ogum’s leadership have intensified.
Despite mounting pressure for his resignation, Ogum retains the backing of the Interim Management Committee (IMC), of which he is a member.
“Prosper Narteh Ogum won the Premier League with Asante Kotoko, but his second coming has been a disaster, which is not good for him and the club,” Taylor remarked during an interview with Asempa FM.
“It is very worrying not to have a management team at this team. The IMC is not helping the team because the composition is even not good but then Otumfuo [Asantehene] in his wisdom thinks it is good for the club. Still, with the performance of Prosper Narteh Ogum, I think it will be better for him to resign from the club to save his reputation.”
As Kotoko continues to grapple with poor results under Ogum’s leadership, Taylor’s call for resignation underscores the growing dissatisfaction among fans and stakeholders, highlighting the need for swift action to address the team’s struggles.
