BRANDING GRANDMASTER, LEGON CITIES LASH-OUT AT THE CIRCULATION OF IMAGES FROM THEIR MATCH VENUE

Legon Cities seem not happy after photos of parts of their home ground to host the current GPL Champions Accra Hearts of Oak has been widely circulated on various media platforms.

After opening the widow for interested media persons to apply for media accreditation to be able to cover the GPL match against Hearts of Oak, Legon Cities have been bashed with pictures showing the deplorable state of their stands.

In a release, the communications division of Legon Cities has cleared the air and asked the general public to disregard any such news although the current state of the stands remains as has been shown in the picture.

The release which reads,

“Our attention has been drawn to pictures being circulated on Social Media regarding the readiness of the El-Wak Sports Stadium to host our Premier League encounter against Accra Hearts of Oak on Saturday, February, 26th 2022.

The part of the stadium, specifically behind the goal post, has been closed since we moved our home games to the El-Wak Sports Stadium to make room for refurbishment. This was part of the conditions stated in the approval of the facility by the Club Licensing Board and would only be operational when the refurbishment exercise is complete.

We want to assure all and sundry that the necessary preventive measures  would be taken to ensure that nobody accesses this part of the stadium on matchday.

Communications Division.”

With the NSA’s directive for all clubs to admit to full capacity, it would be very difficult yet manageable as Legon Cities promise to ensure no spectator has access to the closed stands.
