Speaking on a Facebook Live video, Adebayor said: “For those who say that I do not donate, let me be very clear, I really do not donate. This is very simple. I do what I want to do, eat the food I want, and this is the most important. .
Then, there will be those who criticise me for not having established a charity in Togo. But it seems that I brought the coronavirus to Togo, it is very unfortunate, but this is the case and what happened in the country.”
