Published on: 20 October 2022

Togbe Afede XIV, the board chairman of Hearts of Oak has showered praises on Alhaji Akambi and Vincent Sowah-Odotei, saying they are men of integrity and he is elated to be working with them.

Akanbi and Odotei have come under pressure following the club's elimination from the CAF Confederations Cup against ASR Bamako in the preliminary round of games in a 3-1 goal aggregate.

Supporters of the game expressed their displeasure demanding the sacking of the pair.

But speaking at the presser on Wednesday, Togbe heaped praise on the pair and highlighted traits he admires in the veteran football administrators stating,

“I have enjoyed working with them because they bring the three things that I want to see in any colleague worker. Hard work, hard work very important, as is capability and most importantly, honesty and integrity.

"If anybody has any evidence that any of them has squandered our money, they should bring it.

"I have worked with many people across industries, across countries, there are not many like these two people," he added.

Meanwhile, Hearts of Oak have appointed Serbian trainer, Slavko Matic as Samuel Boadu's replacement on a two-year deal.
