The spiritualist who accused Rashid Sumaila of being behind Jerry Akaminko’s injury which prevented him from participating in the 2014 world cup has all of a sudden disappeared into thin air.

Mallam Issaka Salia, caused a massive lock down in the media landscape in Ghana when he leveled a wild and unsubstantiated claim on young defender Rashid Sumaila of being behind Jerry Akaminko’s woes ahead of the world cup in Brazil.

The spiritualist who promised to bring an end to the footballer’s career in the space of a week has since gone into hiding after succeeding in planting uncertainty and doubt between the two players who shared a healthy relationship.

According to highly respected personalities in Ghanaian football mallam Issaka is a “gold digger” and has since failed to prove his claims after he was pushed to expatiate more on his claims.

Akaminko sustained a serious career threatening injury in Ghana's Pre-world Cup friendly with the Netherlands which ruled him out of the competition.

The former Hearts of Lions defender is currently undergoing a trial in the United states of America as he looks to get his career back on track.
