AshantiGold CEO, Edward Kwasi Akuoko, announced the dismissal of head coach Abdul Karim Kabutey Zito and his two assistants, Ernest Okyere and Robert Dabuo, on Tuesday, following a meeting of the Interim Management Committee on Monday, October 26. The decision stemmed from the club's persistent poor performances and allegations of disunity within the technical team.
Zito, who had led the Miners back to the Ghana Premier League, saw his dismissal come after a disappointing start to the 2026/27 season, with three wins, three losses, and two draws in their first eight matches. The CEO highlighted the team's struggles away from home and reports of strained relationships among the technical staff as key factors in his decision.
AshantiGold '04 now aims to bolster its technical team to improve results and solidify its position in the Premier League.
