Accra Hearts of Oak has lodged a formal complaint with the Ghana Police Service over an incident involving police officers and the club’s supporters’ leader during Sunday’s match against Asante Kotoko at the Accra Sports Stadium.
According to the club’s management, some uniformed officers allegedly manhandled the chairman of the National Chapters Committee (NCC), Yussif Abdullai, and the club’s Safety and Security Officer, Abdul Baaki Musah, while they were performing their official duties.
The club described the incident as unfortunate, stressing that it was caught on camera and had caused distress among supporters and stakeholders.
Hearts said such conduct undermines the spirit of safety and mutual respect that should guide Ghana’s football environment.

Accra Hearts of Oak midfielder Mohammed Hussein has issued a public apology following an incident after the team’s recent match against rivals Asante Kotoko.
In a personal statement, Hussein expressed regret for his actions after the final whistle, acknowledging that his behaviour fell short of the respect expected by his club, teammates, fans, and the wider football community.
“I sincerely apologise to the Ghana Football Association, the referee, my teammates, our cherished supporters, and the wider football community. What happened after the final whistle was unacceptable, and I take full responsibility for my behaviour,” he said.
Hussein explained that he became frustrated during the game, feeling he was repeatedly fouled without adequate protection from the referees.
“In that moment of emotion, I allowed frustration to cloud my judgment. Instead of showing restraint and respect, I reacted wrongly and I regret it deeply,” he added.
He offered a direct apology to the match referee, acknowledging the challenges referees face in ensuring fairness.
“To the referee involved, I am truly sorry for confronting you in the manner that I did. I respect the difficult role referees play and humbly ask for your forgiveness,” he said.
Hussein pledged to learn from the incident, promising to remain calm under pressure and uphold the dignity of both his club and Ghanaian football.
“I will work harder to remain calm under pressure, to honour the phobia badge I love and wear, and to uphold the dignity of our beautiful game,” he said.
