Ghanaian footballer Asamoah Gyan denies using his friend for ritual

This is so silly but some of you might want to read it. Ghanaian star
and former Sunderland striker Asamoah Gyan has been bizarrely accused
of having a hand in the death of his friend, Ghanaian rapper Castro.
Some people in Ghana are accusing Gyan of using Castro for human
sacrifice ritual.

In July, Theophilus Tagoe, popularly known as Castro, went missing
while on holiday with Gyan and other friends. The musician was
presumed to have drowned in a jet ski accident, but his body was never
found which led to the allegations against the striker, with his
family constantly being hounded by Ghanaian press. The football star
(pictured left) and his family have denied having a hand in what
happened but the accusations are refusing to go away because of the
lack of a body.

Gyan and CastroGyan announced on his website today that he will be
holding a press conference to finally address and bring some clarity
to the matter

"The Gyan Family will hold a press conference on Wednesday to address
recent issues of public interest including the disappearance of
musical icon Theophilus Tagoe (aka Castro)."

"It will be recalled that Theophilus Tagoe (aka Castro) and Janet
Bandu went missing while on a holiday hangout with Family and Friends
of the Gyans at a resort in Ada back in July.
Relentless efforts are still being made to find the missing duo.
"The opportunity will also be used to officially respond to some
allegations and untruths bundled about in the media over the role of
Asamoah Gyan in the duos disappearance," the statement read.
