The Disciplinary Committee of the Ghana Football Association has handed a total fine of Gh¢ 20,000 to Wamanafo Mighty Royals.

It follows the merciless assault on referee Niatire Suntuo Aziz and his assistants Suleman Mohammed, Yakubu Abdul Rahman as well as the fourth referee Hasim Yakubu by irate fans of Wamanafo after a scoreless draw with Bofoakwa Tano FC on Sunday, March 28, 2021.

Interestingly, this game was supposed to be behind-closed-door owing to a standing Ghana Football Association directive mandating all matches in the country to be played without fans as part of coronavirus safety protocols.

The Club has also been banned from playing its home matches at the Wamanafo Community park for the rest of the 2020/21 league season.

GFA’s Disciplinary Committee recently placed a ban on the Wamanafo Town park indefinitely.

According to the GFA, these decisions were taken after the club was charged on six counts of misconduct after it failed to ensure the safety of the match officials, as fans were seen beating up the referees, throwing stones at them and injuring them in the process.
