Accra Hearts of Oak made it two wins from two games as they came from behind to beat Nsoatreman FC 2-1 at the Nana Koramansah Park Sunday.
The Phobians who beat Real Tamale United 3-0 last weekend to get the second round off to a good start, won yet again on Sunday.
Salifu Ibrahim’s 47th minute deflected goal cancelled out Walid Fuseini’ 23rd minute opener as Hearts of Oak pulled parity two minutes into the second-half.
Cisse Kasim scored in the 55th minute to give the Phobians a 2-1 advantage.
Nsoatreman FC tweaked things in the process in search of the equaliser but Hearts of Oak were equal to task as they held on to win on the road.
The win marks Hearts of Oak’s second consecutive victory under new coach Aboubakar Ouattara to move up to seventh place in the standings.
In Berekum, Mezack Afriyie scored a second-half hat-trick to beat Karela United 3-0 at the Golden City Park.
The Blues who were held goalless in the first-half, improved their second-half performance to win at home.
Mezack opened the scoring in the 48th minute before adding to the tally inside the 67th and 90+9 to round things up for the Berekum lads.
Elsewhere in Sogakope Legon Cities were held goalless by Accra Lions in the Accra City derby.
Meanwhile, the game between leaders FC Samartex and Nations FC was rained off and will be played on Monday, March 4, 2024.
The Tema Regional Police Command has arrested a 32-year-old man for allegedly posing as a soldier and extorting money from unsuspecting members of the public at Ashaiman.
The suspect, identified as Bright Atsu Kudiabor, was arrested by the Ashaiman Police on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, at about 7:00 a.m.
According to the Police, he was arrested at an area known as “I Shall Return”, where he was allegedly parading himself as a soldier and demanding money from people.
The Police said Kudiabor, who is an ex-convict, was initially arrested by personnel of the Ghana National Fire Service in Ashaiman with assistance from other members of the public.
A search conducted on him after he was handed over to the Police reportedly led to the recovery of a set of military camouflage uniform.
The suspect is currently in Police custody and assisting with investigations.
The Tema Regional Police Command said he would be processed for court after investigations are completed.
The Police urged the public to remain vigilant and report anyone who falsely presents themselves as a soldier or a member of another security agency to deceive or extort money from the public.

Volta Regional Minister, James Gunu, says the Volta Region holds enormous agricultural potential and efforts must be geared towards connecting farmers to the needed resources to unlock that potential.
He said focus must be on linking farmers to resources, technology, financing and markets to increase production, create jobs and build sustainable livelihoods.
Hon. Gunu made the remarks at the national launch of the Ghana Tomato Self-Sufficiency Initiative (GHATSI) held at Anloga in the Volta Region on Tuesday, September 15.
The initiative, under the theme “Produce at Home. Feed the Nation. Export the Surplus,” seeks to boost local tomato production, processing and marketing while reducing Ghana’s heavy reliance on imported tomatoes.
The launch was attended by the Minister for Food and Agriculture, Eric Opoku, his Deputy, John Setor Dumelo, Feed Ghana Coordinator, Bright Demordzi, Members of Parliament, traditional leaders, MMDCEs, farmers and other stakeholders.
Mr.Gunu expressed appreciation to the Minister for Food and Agriculture for the support announced for the region, including two excavators, 200 cartons of organic fertiliser, and GH¢200,000 for Ms. Kuatudzo Esther Dela, a tomato farmer and processor from Ziope.
He described the initiative as an important step towards making agriculture a stronger driver of food security, job creation and economic growth in the Volta Region.
