Kumawood actor, Komfo Kolaege has stated that Ghanaians were unfair to late Christian Atsu during his playing days with the Black Stars when he was attacked for what he described as “little failings”.
In a Facebook yesterday, February 19, to offer condolences to the family of the deceased and Ghanaians at large, Komfo Kolaege said the death of Christian Atsu hit him badly having lost close family members recently.
“Hmmmm I’m speechless. Having myself lost close family members in different settings I feel so sad about this news. He was at some point in time the best player in the Black Stars and Afcon. With little failing Ghanaians forgot all he did and attacked him. Now we’re all crying.
“Life is really short so let’s appreciate it and especially those who do good things. I’m really sad this morning. Rest well Christian Atsu,” he wrote.
The high hopes of many Ghanaians of the recovery of former ex-Black Stars player, Christian Atsu alive from the rubbles of the Türkiye earthquake which happened a fortnight ago, were dashed with news of his death on the morning of Saturday, February 18.
Atsu who played for Hatayspor before his tragic death was one of the star players from the Chelsea academy before heading to Türkiye.
