Apart from the All That aussi gave my mother a great amount of money to start a business of cookies and different items. Naturally, I allowed 'em to put my name and picture on em So They can sell more. What else can have her do in His power to Support His Family?

A Couple years ago, I bought a house in East Lagoon (Ghana) for $ 1.2 million. I found it normal to let my older sister, Yabo Adebayor stay fait que house. Aussi I allowed my half brother (Daniel) to stay in the same house. A few months later, I Was on vacation and Decided to go to That House. At my surprise, I saw cars in the driveway Many. In fact, my sister Decided to rent out the house without me Knowing. She aussi Daniel kicked out of That House. Note que la HAD house about 15 rooms. When I called her and Abebooks web sites for explanation, she Took about 30 minutes to abuse and insult me ​​over the phone. I called my mother to explain the circumstances and she About did the same as my sister. This same sister says I am ungrateful. Ask her about the car she is driving or anything performer is selling today?

My brother Kola Adebayor, Has-been now in Germany for 25 years. He Travelled back home about 4 times, at my expense. I fully cover the cost de son children's education.

Every time I try to help the people in need, They Had to issue me and all of Them thought It was a bad idea.

If I am writing this, the main purpose is not to expose my family members. I just want --other African families to learn from this. Thank you.

I kept his stories for a long time but now I think it's good to share with you. It is true that business families must be settled with the family and not in public, but I do it so that other families learn the lessons. Note that all this is not about money.

At the age of 17, with my first wages footballer, I built a house for my family and I made sure they were safe. As you know, I was elected "Best African Player" in 2008. On this occasion I took my mother to the podium to thank her for everything. During that year, I made sure she comes to London for several medical visits. When my daughter was born, we called my mother to inform her directly but she hung up. Reading your comments, some propose that I go see Pastor TB Joshua to talk about family problems. As done in 2013, I give money to my mother to see this pastor in Nigeria. She had to stay for 1 week, but two days later they called me to say what part. On top of that, I gave a large sum to my mother to start a business of biscuits and other products. Naturellememt, I shall place my name on it to sell more. What else can a son to support his family?

There are some years I bought a house for $ 1.2million in Ghana. I found normal to put my big sister Yabo Adebayor in this house, and my half brother Daniel. A few months after I returned from vacation and I noticed there were a lot of cars outside the house. The truth is that my sister rented the house without telling me. It also referred Daniel's home. Imagine this maiso had around 15 rooms. When I called to discuss, she insulted me on the phone for 30 minutes. My mother did the same. This same sister says I am ungrateful. Ask him about the car she drives or what it sells today.

My brother Kola is in Germany for 25 years and returned home only 4 times, at my own expense. I bear the costs of studies of her children. When I was at Monaco, he came REQUEST IT me money to start a business. Only God knows how he got me. Where is this business today?
When our brother Peter died, I sent a large sum in Kola so he could return home. We do not see the funeral. Now he announces that I am involved in the death of Peter. How? It's the same brother who pocketed money from "The Sun" for telling inaccurate stories about our family. They also sent a letter to my club when I was in Madrid to fire me.

When I was at Monaco I thought it would be nice to have a football family so I found a football academy for my brother Rotimi in France. Some me after he stole 21 Phones of his teammates. There were 27 players in the team.

I would not say anything about my brother Peter Adebayor who died. That his soul rests in peace.

Sister Lucia Adebayor tell people that my father told me of the taken in Europe, but I refused. What would be the purpose of taking him to Europe? Everyone is here for a reason.

I was in Ghana when I received the news that my brother (Peter) was seriously ill. I drove in Togo as soon as possible to offer my help. When I arrived, my mother disc I can not see it. She said to give her the money and she would take charge of the guérrir. God knows how I gave him. And people always say I did not do anything to save my brother. You think I drive two hours to Togo for nothing?

I organized a family reunion in 2005 to solve all the problems. When I asked their opinion, they wanted that he offers them a house to each family member and I give them a monthly salary. Today I am alive but have already shared all my possessions. For all these reasons, my foundation has had trouble starting. Each I want to help the poor, they oppose it.

If I write this, the main objective is not to expose my family. I just want other African families learn from this. Thank you.
