Black Star Forward, Christian Atsu has won the hearts of many Ghanaians with his commitment and his influence on the green turf but his choice of partner has got many Ghanaians boiling with anger.
The player who currently plies his trade English side Newcastle is married to a German, Marie-Claire Rupio and the couple have two children-all boys.
In commemoration of Rupio’s birthday, Atsu took to social media to pen an adorable message to his wife.
He wrote:
“I feel so blessed to have such a beautiful and supportive life partner like you.Thank you for coming into my life, Every year with you is better than the last. Happy birthday to you my love”
Unfortunately internet trolls will have none of that. They descended on the white woman and tore her with mean comments. Is this not racism?
