Evans Adomako scored twice to add to Emmanuel Gyamfi's strike as Kotoko dispatched Thunderbolt FC 3-1.
In Paga, Sam Adams netted the only goal as Aduana Stars secured a hard fought 1-0 win against Paga Crocodiles.
Two times champions Medema SC defeated rivals Karela United 2-1 in Anyinase, but the game was marred by attacks from fans of the home side, leading to injuries of some players.
WAFA shockingly exited the competition after losing 6-5 on penalties to Young Wise, after the game ended 1-1 in regulation time.
Elmina Sharks and Accra Great Olympics progressed after penalty shootouts wins over Vernomous Vipers and Hearts of Lions respectively.
