The Porcupine Warriors will on Sunday, February 15, host rivals Accra Hearts of Oak at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium for the matchday 22 fixture in the ongoing 2025/2026 Ghana Premier League season.
The Manhyia Palace delegation to the training grounds of Asante Kotoko was led by Chief of Staff Kofi Badu, Offinsomanhene Nana Dwamena Akenten II and Bantamahene Baffour Owusu Amankwatia VI.
“Asante Kotoko SC welcomed a distinguished delegation of revered leaders from the Asante Kingdom this afternoon.”
