Tottenham’s striker, Emmanuel Adebayor, has publicly lashed out at his family, accusing them of turning their backs on him. He revealed how they rented out his property without his permission and how his brother Rotimi, stole mobile phones in France.
The Togo captain on Tuesday, put on a long Facebook post talking about supporting his family and advised other families to “learn from what happened in mine”, adding “keep in mind that none of this is about money”.
Adebayor also claims he was prevented from seeing his brother, Peter, who is now late“I was in Ghana when I received the news about my brother Peter being seriously ill,” he wrote. “I drove the fastest I could to Togo in order to meet him and help. When I arrived, my mother said I could not see him and I should just give the money and she would solve everything. Only God knows how much I gave her that day.
“I organised a meeting in 2005 to solve our family issues. When I asked them about their opinion, they said I should build each family member a house and give each of them a monthly wage.”
The former Arsenal and Monaco player, also spoke about his brother stealing at a football academy.
“When I was in Monaco I thought it would be good to have a family of footballers. So I made sure my brother Rotimi gets into a football academy in France. Within a few months; out of 27 players, he stole 21 phones.”
