The health condition of Hiplife artiste Castro De Destroyer real name Theophilus Tetteh has been in the media for a couple of days now since Television hostess Baby Dapaah mentioned last Saturday on her “Hot Gossip” programme aired on TV3 that Castro is seriously sick, he can’t walk and that his health condition is getting worse by the day.
This some section of the media has interpreted as spiritual and linked it to an issue that came up in the media that Castro has refused to fulfill a promise he made to a so called fetish woman after she helped him spiritually to make his album a hit.
There are rumors all over the media that Castro has been attacked by illness as a result of the fetish woman who cursed him on Okay FM few months ago when she was interviewed.
It will be recalled that sometime this year, one fetish priestess appeared on Okay FM claiming that Castro has ignored a sacrifice he had to do for her after helping him come out with his hit song ‘African Girls’ which featured soccer superstar Asamoah Gyan.
An allegation Castro denied blatantly and laughed over labeling it as false and lacking facts and substance on rumor mongering segment “Akekakeka” on Okay FM’s “Ekwanso dwodwo” drive time program. Some months after the accusation and the denial, fans of Asamoah Gyan’s (Black Stars Striker) crony Castro has been rumored to be suffering from an ailment which is almost paralyzing him.
Though different people have been making many assertions on the issue, manager for DJ Amess told Peacefmonline.com this morning that Castro is not under any curse as its being rumored around town.
‘Where are all these rumors coming from I don’t understand why some people will decide to fuel this allegation because Castro is alright nobody has cursed him”.
However, his manager confirmed that Castro injured his foot in Ghana few weeks ago but he failed to treat it well and travelled abroad with it where he suffered another injury on the same foot. According to DJ Amess, his condition got very serious to the extent that he couldn’t walk as some point but he is getting better. “I can say as a matter of fact that he is currently receiving traditional treatment in Takoradi”.
Amess explained further to Peacefmonline that he was sent to Takoradi because he was still busy trying to go through his everyday schedule like; going to the studio to record, granting interviews among other things as though nothing was wrong with him which was delaying his recovery. “So we decided to take him to Takoradi where his family lives for him to be able to take some time off the public eye, spend more time with family, relax and recover fast”.
He assured fans of Castro not to be alarmed because he can now walk and go about his daily activities. Amess promised that Ghanaians should expect the biggest come back from Castro with yet another chart topping hit album very soon.
