“People Are Laughing At Us…Please Forgive Me” – Adebayor’s Brother Pleads

The younger brother of Tottenham Hotspur-based Togolese striker, Rotimi Adebayor is pleading for forgiveness for his uncultured behaviour which nearly caused his brother’s friendship with colleague footballers.

In an interview with BBC, Emmanuel Adebayor's brother was remorseful by his conduct which triggered the Tottenham star to tell the world about his doings on Facebook.


"I'm so sorry for everything that I've done wrong... I want to beg, forgive me," says Rotimi Adebayor.

Emmanuel Adebayor accused younger brother Rotimi of stealing a shirt given to him by the late Marc-Vivien Foe, a signed jersey that belonged to Real Madrid legend Zinedine Zidane and a £25,000 Cartier necklace the Tottenham striker had bought for his mother.

In a follow-up to 'part one' of a statement he released on Facebook last week, where he claimed Rotimi had taken 21 mobile phones from a French football academy he had got him a place in, Adebayor has delivered on his promise that there was much more to come.

But Rotimi wants his brother to let go of the past and reunite with the family.

"I want him [Emmanuel] to try and be with us again. To sit like a family, do things together. I pray to God that moment is coming soon.

"…People are laughing at us, but they will see us and they will cry... God's time is the best, I wish my brother good luck," He said.
