Welcome ‘Kofi Yesu’, Cornerstone Football Club posted on Twitter. “We are confident that Boadu’s experience and quality of excellence as a tactician will affect Cornerstone Football Club favorably as we work hard to recover our past glory.

Cornerstone FC was founded in 1931, four years before Asante Kotoko, making them the oldest active team from the Ashanti Region.
Following their two FA Cup victories in 1959 and 1965, they have a distinguished football history in Ghana as well.
In 1998, they also prevailed in the WAFU Championship.
Unfortunately, they disappeared after being demoted repeatedly lower on the Ghanaian football pyramid in the late 1990s, when they were kicked out of the top division.
