West African Football Academy(WAFA), one of the vibrant and energetic clubs in the Ghana Premier League, have been performing well since they secured promotion to the Premier League on May 3, 2014.
WAFA will be playing their last round of match against the continental masters, Accra Heart of Oak, who have already won the 2020/2021 premier league season at Sogakope, WAFA Park.
Ahead of the match, speculation and rumours have been circulating concerning, West African Football Academy( WAFA) requesting to play their last home match against Accra Hearts of Oak at the Accra Sports Stadium.
Speaking to Rainbow Radio’s Isaac Worlanyo Wallace, head coach of the team Dr. Prosper Nerteh Ogum, denied the rumours.
He added that the media should be ”very careful” with any publication and write-ups they produce to the general public.”
‘WAFA have their park where they have been playing their home matches all these years. We have made such a request as reported,’ he said.
WAFA has never requested to play their match against Heart at the Accra Sports Stadium. ” I can say on authority that my managing director received a call from some people requesting that we play the match at Accra Sports Stadium, and he made it clear to them we are not interested and even if they propose to WAFA we will not accept,” he said.
Dr. Prosper Ogum concluded that such rumours and speculation that are tagged on clubs tarnish their image and credibility.
He warned the club would take legal action against media houses that would publish false stories about them.
