Ghana Army Sports Officer Major Dickson Agalga has stated his outfit’s Men’s Basketball team has evidence to prove its innocence over its’ reported involvement in an alleged brawl between the team and TUSK Foundation.
In the aftermath of an Accra Basketball League (ABL) Men’s Division I Regular Season game TUSK won 61-59 over Army on Thursday, October 7 at the Prisons Court in Cantonments, a reported fight broke out.
TUSK Head Coach Thomas Amediku launched a torrid attack against the Ghana Army contingent for its role in the alleged brawl. Army Sports Officer Major Agalga has refuted the claim strongly arguing the opposite happened but highlighted his mistrust over video evidence reportedly at play. (Click highlighted to view stories)
“We didn’t go to them ask anybody. You can play the video, we know that you guys they will doctor the videos but we also have our evidence to prove our point. He came to our bench to hit (mentioned a player but name wasn’t audible enough) in the chest…Whilst we were playing, whilst the game was going on Thomas Amediku intermittently comes on the court to spew insults on our players just in an attempt to get them angry so that they will lose concentration and that they will win the match. It was a deliberate attempt a deliberate attempt well orchestrated to give the dog a bad name and kill it” he said.
The matter is before the ABL Disciplinary Committee.
