The Porcupine Warriors stated on social media that they were saddened to hear of Taylor's mother death, and offered their condolences to him and his family.
“We are saddened by the passing of the beloved mother of our former player, Charles Taylor”.
The Kumasi-based club continues by extending their condolence to the ex-Ghana international who is held in high esteem for his display of quality during his playing days.

Taylor spent two years at Kotoko after joining from fierce rivals Hearts of Oak in 2003.
He had won six titles with the Capital-based club including the 2000 Caf Champions League before leaving.
Taylor scored but it was enough as Kotoko were beaten on penalties by Hearts in the 2005 Caf Confederation Cup final.
