Children’s games, complex, or buzz, in any case, the canvas has been laughing for a few days around the scenes offered by two characters more or less famous in their respective fields. Football and humour.
The towel burns between the former captain of the hawks, Emmanuel Sheyi Adébayor and the comedian Gogoligo. The latter, in a live on his Facebook page criticized the inaction of the footballer in a context where high personalities or not, somehow support the population in this time of health crisis. In his remarks, he compared the star to footballers Eto’o Jr. and Drogba who, for their part, have made donations in their countries. A comment that was not to the taste of the footballer and which led him to make a video in which he makes disturbing revelations about the comedian.
In a live past on his page yesterday, the footballer went into a black rage and copiously humiliated the comedian Gogoligo. « Gogoligo also gets up today to post on social media that Drogba and Eto’o are donating and I’m not doing anything. Why doesn’t he make donations himself? He is not an artist? (…) When he came to my house and I gave him 500,000 CFA francs, it was with difficulty that he agreed to give even 10,000 to the security guards outside my door. He’s talking about devdons, too? til asked before continuing (…) If you and I are no longer on good terms today, is that why you will seek to denigrate me? Don’t forget I fed you. (…) The land I offered you why don’t you use it to donate? When you came to pick up the clothes, the panties and the hats from my house, did you tell anyone? You have to do your live to clash the Togolese artists, you and I do not play in the same court, » Adébayor said.
The video immediately set the web ablaze and was shared in many WhatsApp groups.
The concerned immediately announced a live broadcast in the evening where many believed that he denied these remarks. Oddly enough, he went instead to fairplay and lamented the attitude of some people who had wanted him not to let this « affront » pass. « Don’t push people into temptation, » he said. What is important right now is to unite together to defeat this pandemic. He said. One user, in a sarcastic style, commented » Gogoligo could not deny Sheyi’s comments. So it’s true. » In any case this story made the front page of the tabloids and the comments poured on the web.
However, it seems important to stress that it is not a good tone to force anyone to make a donation. The gift is sacred and selfless. It is a gesture that should be done naturally without pressure. It is certainly true that aid is highly desired in these tumultuous times, but let people act willingly.
It should also be remembered that these two people had a very good relationship. We still remember the videos of enjoyment they shared. Even if, it is rare for a friendship to continue because at some point there may be a conflict of interest, a discord between these two was unimaginable…
