Some supporters of Kumasi Asante Kotoko have beaten a sports journalist popularly called Andy Kem who works for Silver FM in Kumasi.
According to reports gathered, Andy was attacked after Kotoko’s game against Burkinabe side, Rhino FC at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.
The fans, according to Andy during an interview on Abusua FM and later on Silver FM, told him “he is the one” who is bringing the club down.
The fans, he said were incited to attack him after listening to Light FM’s sports program on Wednesday and Thursday where his name was mentioned as part of those who are against the club.
“I do not think the number is less than 40,” he said on Abusua FM and also stated that “he can identify some of those who attacked him.”
“But they are not the familiar faces I see.”
Andy added that he reported the incident to the police at Asokwa and was given a hospital form to go to the hospital.
However, Frank Appiah Richard, who hosts the sports program on Light FM said on Silver FM that they “did not incite anyone to attack his brothers [sports journalists].”
“I will not let anyone” to say anything like that and Dr Kwame Kyei will also not let anyone do that.
