Adebayor’s Jubilee celebrations will begin on June 19 with a youth marathon and a special female football tournament. A giant concert would then follow at the Stade de Kegue in Lome, where Shatta Wale and other renowned artists are billed to perform.
The award-winning Ghanaian dancehall musician confirmed his participation in the concert via a video shared on Adebayor’s TikTok page.
When Adebayor retired last year, he released a press release saying: “My professional career has come to an end. We have lived together moments of joy and intense emotions, in my respective clubs as well as with the selection of the Togolese National Team.
