A former board member of Accra Hearts of Oak , Isaac Tetteh, alias TT Brothers, has vowed to drag the former board and management members of the club to court to enforce the payment of over GH¢2,000,000( GH¢2 million) owed him by the club.
He also demands GH¢420,000 that the club instructed him to borrow from financial institutions in Ghana and Nigeria during the 2004 and 2005 football season.
It is not clear yet what has enraged the die-hard Phobian supporter and former board member to institute such actions but speaking to the Graphic Sports in an interview at his office in Tema last Tuesday, Mr Tetteh expressed his bitterness and sadness about the way the current management of the club treated him.
“I feel really sad and bitter about the way I am being treated. I have served Accra Hearts of Oak and been a loyal fan since I was born. I am more Phobian than Torgbui”, he added, refering to the current board chairman and largest shareholder of the club, Torgbui Afede XVI.
Commenting on the bad blood between him and the oldest existing club, Isaac Tetteh, who owns one of the largest beverage industries in the country, stated that the isolationist attitude of the current management of the club and their penchant for tagging former board members of the club with corruption, might not augur well for the future prospects of the club.
“They say we are corrupt, yet they have become worse off and are thinking about their interest. Someone thinks he has the biggest share and has invested in the club soo much that he wants to use the club to by Browser Shop" href="#">make profit
, that is up to him”, .
On the issue of the GH¢420,000 he borrowed from banks on the orders of the former management, Mr Tetteh asserted that he was forced to use his company to leverage funds for the club.
“Nii Gbese; referring to Tommy Okine, a former CEO of Hearts, Mr Ato Ahwoi, Harry Sawyer were all aware when I borrowed money for the club from SG-SSB, Intercontinental Bank and a bank from Nigeria. They can’t deny it”, he spoke with a look of intensity on his brow.
But Mr Tetteh said he still remained a major fan of the club and would always seek the interest of the club.
