Public Relations Officer of Accra Great Olympics, Saint Osei, has remarked that the reasons behind the club’s withdrawal from the 2023 Gbese Homowo Charity Cup are not conducive for public disclosure.
According to reports, the cup matches between the Accra clubs have become entangled in political intricacies, leading to challenges in organizing these fixtures.
In a conversation with Joy Sports subsequent to the cancellation of the game on Friday, Osei asserted that their decision to abstain from the match is rooted in their desire to uphold the respect and loyalty they hold towards their supporters.
“The reason Great Olympics pulled out is not good for public consumption. We are not taking our fans for granted,” he said.
“Great Olympics’ decision to pull out was communicated to the organisers a couple of days ago.”
Initially scheduled to occur on Sunday at the Accra Sports Stadium, the match formed a crucial facet of the Gas’ annual Homowo festival festivities.
At present, the potential of rescheduling the game for a different date remains uncertain, as the organizers have refrained from addressing this aspect in their communication.
