Asante Kotoko NCC plan to use musicians to improve low stadium attendance

Published on: 09 January 2023

Asante Kotoko National Circles Council is planning on bringing some top musicians in the country to the stadium in a bid to improve low attendance.

Poor attendances have been recorded over the past weeks on match days in the Ghana Premier League.

The Porcupine Warriors have recorded low turnouts in their home games at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium recently.

On Sunday, the 40,000 capacity stadium was not filled to the brim, with over 3,000 spectators making it to the Baba Yara Stadium to watch Kotoko play Great Olympics.

Asante Kotoko deputy Supporters chief,  Nana Kwame Dankwah, the leadership is planning on bringing musicians  to the stadium in a bid to attract the supporters.

"We Are planning to bring Musicians to the stadium going forward", he said in an interview on Akoma FM.

"We are planning to bring some great musicians to the stadium but that is not sustainable in the long term because most of these musicians cannot be doing it for free.

"What we have decided to do now is to enhance supporter's mobilization this year.

"We acknowledge that, mobilization has really gone down and we are going to revive it. I will appeal to the supporters to come to the stadium because players get disappointed and worried when the stadium is empty.

He added: "I just don't have the answer to the reasons why they ain't coming but, they should put the past behind and come in their numbers".
