Lawrence Asiamah Hanson wants Ghana's football leaders and government officials to stand behind Thomas Partey during his legal troubles. The entertainment manager spoke up for the Arsenal midfielder after UK police charged him with serious crimes. Partey faces five rape charges and one sexual assault charge related to three different women. The alleged incidents happened between 2021 and 2022 according to London's Metropolitan Police. Hanson believes the footballer deserves help because he has done great things for Ghana.
Hanson made his comments during a weekend appearance on United Showbiz television program. He reminded viewers that Partey helped Ghana reach both the 2022 and 2026 World Cup tournaments. The manager said all Ghanaians should pray for their national team star during this tough period. He spoke these words using the local Twi language to connect with his audience. Hanson stressed that Partey has brought pride to the entire country through his soccer skills.
The entertainment figure also shared doubts about one particular charge against Partey. Hanson found it strange that a woman would face the same attack three times without telling police after the first incident. He said this part of the story did not make sense to him. Hanson mentioned that he has also faced false accusations before. The manager believes people should question certain details about the case.
Neither the Ghana Football Association nor government officials have answered Hanson's request for support. British courts continue to handle all legal proceedings against the midfielder. Partey remains with his English Premier League team as the case moves forward.
