-

Former Accra Hearts of Oak head coach, Kenichi Yatsuhashi has revealed that, coach Yaw Preko saved him from been killed in Nigeria.

The Japanese International in an interview did not reveal the details of what transpired in Nigeria during his time with Ifeanyi Ubah but said he would have been secretly killed if not for the intervention of his assistant Yaw Preko.

"I can’t tell you everything," Kenichi told footballvsoblivion. "Bottom line, it was my assistant coach at Hearts of Oak who asked me to come with him. He was offered an assistant coaching role, on the condition that I would be the head coach, because of the success we’d had at Hearts of Oak in Ghana.

Kenichi Yatsuhashi and Yaw Preko who worked at Accra Hearts of Oak as head coach and assistant respectively also had a short stint with Nigerian club Ifeanyi Ubah in 2016.
He continued; "Myself and Yaw Preko, my assistant coach at that time, felt that it was a matter of life or death, seriously, for me to get out of the country and be safe.”

“I can’t really elaborate more than that, but, if it wasn’t for him coming between me and many people, I would have been dead without anyone even knowing," he concluded.

To the Editor, Why I didn’t show up for the morning news production on Monday On that fateful day (Monday, April 4 th 2022) I was preparing to come and produce the morning news despite the heavy rainfall and lack of electricity in my area. I was ready to come around 4:30am when my father ordered me to wait due to crime rate in my area and especially such an ungodly hour. From where l stay, I have to board a taxi to the main road before getting a car to work but unfortunately, there was no car at the time I arrived there around 5:10am because of the rain and lack of electricity. I had no other option than to wait because I might be attacked if I decided to walk to the main road that’s why I couldn’t get here on time to produce to morning news. Thank you                                     ...
