Ghanaian football legend Asamoah Gyan has caused a stir after threatening to harm Twitter user and self-acclaimed critic Bongo Ideas over some comments he made regarding the late Christian Atsu.

Bongo, who had been making light of Atsu's death in his tweets, finally went too far with a tweet that insinuated Atsu was haunting him from beyond the grave.

Gyan responded quickly, expressing his anger in a vulgar Instagram post. Many suggest Gyan's anger may be beyond Bongo's tweets, with some Twitter users saying Bongo had made direct remarks about Gyan on his Instagram comment section and quickly deleted them.

Gyan, a close friend of Atsu, was deeply upset by Bongo's insensitive comments. In his Instagram post, Gyan called out Bongo in no uncertain terms, using strong language to warn him that he had "messed with the wrong people". Gyan also threatened to find Bongo and make him pay for his comments.

Christian Atsu appeared in my dream today. Eeiii! What have done wrong? I’m not even a family member. Terrifying, bruh. 😱 🤷‍♂️ 🙆🏽‍♂️— Albert Nat Hyde (@BongoIdeas) February 21, 2023

The incident has caused a lot of debate on social media, with many people expressing their support for Gyan's reaction. Some have even suggested that Bongo should be held accountable for his actions.

In contrast, others have criticized Gyan for his violent response, saying he was a role model and a public figure and hence should not have responded that way. Gyan has since deleted the Instagram post.

The pain of being kicked out of the Black Stars is making him attack me unprovoked. I've said nothing to him, and even until today, I didn’t know he existed.He has shamefully deleted the post but over to you @GhPoliceService. Hold him responsible for any physical harm I suffer pic.twitter.com/vv1zGoCEVy— Albert Nat Hyde (@BongoIdeas) February 21, 2023

In response to Asamoah Gyan's comments, Bongo Ideas has denied any direct statements about Gyan as has been suggested by some Twitter users and has claimed that his tweets were not meant to offend anyone. In a tweet, he stated that he was exercising his freedom of speech and expressing his opinions about the late Christian Atsu.

Bongo has also expressed shock and fear over Gyan's violent reaction and has vowed to take legal action against him. He has indicated that he will report the matter to the police and pursue legal action to protect his safety.
