Deputy Coach of the Black stars, Maxwell Konadu has debunked claims that he ordered the beating of Albert Commey in Wa All-stars’ league victory over Aduana stars.
In the wake of the Wa All-stars historic league triumph, it was alleged that Maxwell Konadu ordered supporters of the club to beat the chief executive officer of Aduana stars, Albert Commey due to utterances he made toward him when the penalty that won Wa All-stars the league title was awarded by referee Ali Alhassan in the 74th minute of the game.
However, Maxwell Konadu vehemently refuted the allegation when he was interviewed by Happy FM’s Moses Antwi Benefo on Anopa Bosuo sports.
“I had so many calls from people that I was responsible for the unfortunate beating of Albert Commey. I can state it clearly on this station that I have no knowledge of what happened because when the penalty was awarded I was on the verge of moving my car, hence I didn’t see the penalty clearly.”
“And, after the penalty was converted, I didn’t get down from my car until I saw someone walking to my direction, who happened to be Albert Commey. He was raged with the manner in which the penalty was awarded and started making unpleasant utterances and gestures which in my opinion I don’t think it will be ethical to repeat them on radio.
“From how he was talking, I decided to confront him but later changed my mind and chose to move my car from the area until I saw some fans approaching, and therefore I decided to drive away, but I think if he was beaten then it will be from the utterances he was making. But to say I was at the stadium when the incident happened, I’ll say no.”
Wa All-stars victory over second placed team Aduana stars clinched their maiden title with a game to finish.
