Asante Kotoko has issued an update on the murder case of Francis Yaw Frimpong, popularly known as Nana Pooley.
The club confirmed that police have arrested Grace Siaw, the girlfriend of the prime suspect, Daniel Febiri, also known as Braima.
She allegedly hid him between February 4 and 17 and helped him flee to Senegal through Cote d’Ivoire.
Grace Siaw was arraigned on February 25 and remanded into custody. She is set to reappear in court on Monday, March 3 as investigations continue.
Nana Pooley, a dedicated Kotoko supporter, was fatally stabbed in Nsoatre on February 2, 2025, after Kotoko’s match against Nsoatreman. “Update on Francis Yaw Frimpong’s murder case. The police have in their custody one GRACE SIAW, a girlfriend of DANIEL FEBIRI a.k.a BRAIMA a..k.a ASHI a.k.a Rasta who concealed the suspect between 4th & 17th Feb and assisted him to run to Senegal through Cote D’voire. She was brought to court on 25th Feb and was remanded. She is to be brought to court today and we are waiting. More details soon,” wrote Asante Kotoko on X. The case has drawn significant public attention, with Kotoko strongly criticising Asempa FM for comments that the club says undermined police investigations.
