Senior colleague, Mahatma Otoo has turnup to apologise on Thomas Abbey’s behalf for comments made regarding Hearts of Oak’s 2017 FA Cup defeat to Asante Kotoko.
Abbey has been in the news for the wrong reasons following his comments that Hearts of Oak lost to Asante Kotoko in the 3 years ago cup final due to unpaid salaries and bonuses.

Abbey’s action has met equal reaction from then team mates, Vincent Atinga, Kwame Kizito and Leonard Tawiah.
In a move to calm waters, Mahatma Otoo has shelved further blows with his latest Facebook post calling for calm.
“I have had the opportunity to listen to the interview made by Thomas Abbey on Anwar U. Larry wall. Immediately after listening to the interview, I called Abbey and we had a long talk.
“I would like to use this platform to render an unqualified apology to the entire Accra Hearts of Oak fraternity on behalf of Thomas Abbey. I can assure the entire Hearts family that after the telephone conversation I had with him, it wasn’t his intention to dent the image of the club and he feels really sorry. And I urge all Phobians to find a place in your hearts to forgive our brother Abbey.
“My advice to my fellow colleagues (footballers) is that we should all be very careful about what we say during interviews because everyone has his own way of interpretation. You might mean something but it could come out as something totally different.

“To the players who took to social media or made interviews because of what Abbey said, I feel you should have got in touch with him first. Whatever you hear, please confirm first before you react. Because today, it is Abbey. Tomorrow, it could be you or me.
“Once again Phobians, I urge we all to come together and deal with issues like a family. Please accept Abbey’s apology ….. To err is human, to forgive is divine.
Thank you.
With Love,
Mahatma Otoo.
