"I'm happy with this opportunity and I hope things will work for me in Ethiopia," Akuffo told Success FM.
"I have paid my dues for Kotoko and I know the supporters will wish me well after I took this decision. It's left with only four games in the Ghana Premier League and I know they will do well to finish the season on a higher note because there are a lot of quality players still around. I thank everyone at the club for the support and prayers," he added.
