The entrepreneur was appointed last Friday by the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II as the new Executive Board Chairman of Kotoko following the dissolution of the former board and management at the end of their tenure of office.
Frimpong, who was on the score sheet last Monday when Kotoko recorded an emphatic 3-0 win over Bechem United at the Baba Yara Stadium in the GHALCA-organised G6 tournament, told the GNA that the victory was the beginning of better things to come.
“The new CEO of the club Dr Kwame Kyei visited us on Sunday and talked to us. The past administration did their best for the club, there is a new administration and we are all ready to work with them to achieve great things for the club. We are united and always happy working as a team,” said Frimpong.
‘’We were very determined to beat Bechem United because we have had quite a bad performance against them in our last couple of games. They got a point here in Kumasi in the league match and they eliminated us in the MTN FA Cup so we were ready to take our chances this time around.
‘’That was an extra motivation for us against them, our performance was great but I want to assure our supporters that it would be greater in our subsequent games,’’ Frimpong said.
The defender insisted the team were going to fight to win the tournament and other trophies in the coming season.
“We won this tournament in great style last season and this season would be no different. We have started very well and we would keep up with it. Hopefully, everything will go according to plan this time around and we would win every trophy for our fans." — GNA
