The Safety Office of English championship side, Queens Park Rangers, has rendered separate apologies to the Ghana Football Association and Black Stars player, Haminu Draman.
This follows the embarrassing treatment meted onto Haminu Dramano, who was bundled by steward after the Ghana's international friendly with Australia played on November 14 at the Loftus Road stadium, home of Queens Park Rangers.
The minor incident happened at the entrance of the stadium where a steward at the grounds shoved the Black Stars attacker in his bid to control a surging crowd within the stadium complex.
A fortnight after the game, the GFA formally lodged a complaint with the British Metropolitan Police, the management of the Loftus Road Stadium and Queens Park Rangers Football Club against a steward at the grounds for jostling the Ghana player.
The FA also backed an enquiry into the conduct of the steward.
In a response, the Safety Officer at the Loftus Road stadium, Clive Doyle entreated the FA and Haminu Draman to accept their apologies.
The Safety Officer also assured that they are still investigating the matter though they are yet to identify the steward to enable them conclude their enquiry.
"Please accept our apologies over this disturbing incident and be assured that once we have identified the individual concerned we will be taking disciplinary action.
“Please pass our apologies on to Haminu Draman as it must have been very embarrassing for him and certainly not something we would condone at Loftus Road stadium,” the statement read.
Ghana drew 1-1 with Australia in the international friendly. QPR
