The Ghana premier league match day 3 went on at the virous league centers where Aduana stars at Dormaa Ahenkro in the Bono region beat Karela fm 2 goals to 1 .
Aduana Football Club sincerely apologises to Karela United Football Club and all stakeholders of Ghana football following the unfortunate incident that occurred in the Safe Zone after our Premier League match against Karela United FC.
The Club acknowledges that a projectile was thrown at the Karela United team bus, resulting in the damage to the bus. We take full responsibility for what happened and unreservedly condemn the act.
The incident seen in the video is a spill over from an earlier physical assault on our stadium security officer by Karela United FC Assistant Coach, Ayuba Abdul Kadir, something that happened in the full glare of the match officials and was reported to the police.
While this earlier incident contributed to the subsequent reaction, Aduana FC does not condone retaliation or any form of violence, and nothing that happened earlier justifies damage to the property of another club.
The chiefs in the Bono lands never support valence and we deeply condemn that acts .
The unfortunate incident occurred in the presence of the Match Commissioner and personnel of the Ghana Police Service. We acknowledge the seriousness of the matter and the responsibility that comes with ensuring that the Safe Zone remains secure and properly controlled.
Aduana FC has commenced steps to fully investigate the circumstances surrounding the incident. Going forward, the Club will strengthen access control and security measures to ensure that no unauthorised person gains access to the Safe Zone and that such an incident does not happen again.
We extend our sincere apologies to Karela United FC, the Ghana Football Association, the Match Officials, the Ghana Police Service, our supporters, and the wider football community.
Football must be played and experienced in an environment of respect, discipline and safety. As a Club, we accept our responsibility and are committed to learning from this incident and taking the necessary measures to prevent a recurrence.
Aduana Football Club remains committed to the values of sportsmanship, respect and peaceful coexistence within Ghana football.
