A self-acclaimed spiritualist has claimed he is the orchestrator of former Ghanaian international Micahel Essien’s sudden fall from grace.

According to him, he is responsible for all the challenges the former Chelsea midfielder faced during his career.

In a conversation with Arnold Mensah Elavanyo on Vibes in 5, the spiritualist said Michael Essien failed to honour his side of the bargain thus he unleashed spiritual impediments on him which resulted in his sudden fall as far as his footballing career was concerned.

“I manage about 50 Ghanaian footballers, some of whom are currently working abroad.” 

“However, I was responsible for the demise of the players who did not value my services,” he explained.

“Essien promised to buy me a house in Accra if I helped him advance in his football career.” 

He didn’t keep his promise, so I brought him down.”

Meanwhile, Michael Essien is regarded as one of the top African footballers of this generation with a largely successful career playing for giants like Chelsea, Real Madrid and AC Millan.

Therefore, it is quite weird for the spiritualist to claim he is responsible for Essien’s downfall especially when he is currently the assistant coach at Danish side Nordsjaelland.
