In a heart-warming gesture of compassion, the owner of Asante Kotoko, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, has adopted the children of the late Nana Pooley, a devoted Kotoko supporter who tragically lost his life during an altercation.
Recognising the loss and the impact on the bereaved family, the Asantehene has taken full responsibility for the welfare of Pooley’s children. To ensure their future is secured, he has set up an educational fund dedicated to supporting their schooling and overall well-being.
Nana Pooley, known for his unwavering passion for Asante Kotoko, tragically passed away under unfortunate circumstances, leaving his family in distress. His death sent shockwaves through the Kotoko fraternity, with many fans mourning the loss of one of their own.
Otumfuo’s intervention has been widely applauded, as it not only provides relief to the family but also highlights his continuous commitment to the well-being of the Asante people. The establishment of the educational fund ensures that Pooley’s children will have access to quality education and a stable future despite the painful loss of their father.
This act of generosity has further solidified Otumfuo’s legacy as a leader who prioritises the welfare of his people, extending his care and support beyond the football community.
Recall that a few days ago, it was reported on nsemwokrom that Nana Pooley, who was also a Communications Member of the Supporters’ Group, was fatally st@bbed by unknown attackers during their Matchday 19 fixture at Nana Kronmansah Park in Twumasikrom, a game that ended 1-0 in favour of the home side.
