Castro's Father: Will Sarkodie's Apology Bring Back My Son?
Mr John Eshun, father of missing hiplife artiste
Castro, has denied rumours he is disappointed in
some Ghanaian artistes for not showing solidarity
with the family since his son’s disappearance.


It was reported earlier this week that Castro's
father was disappointed in Ghanaian rapper
Sarkodie for not visiting Castro's family since
his disappearance knowing the friendship that
existed between the two.

But refuting the reports on Hitz Entertainment
News on Hitz FM with Doreen Avio, Mr. Eshun said
the incident to him is serious and not an
entertainment issue.

“What happened is a big issue for me and it is
so annoying to [see people] write that Sarkodie
should come and apologize to my family. Will
Sarkodie coming to apologize bring back what I'm
looking for?”

He said, he got a call from someone who told him
that Sarkodie should have said something about
Castro when he and Castro's song 'Adonai' won
Vodafone Song of the Year award at the Vodafone
Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) on April 11.

Mr Eshun said, he told the person that, that
wasn't his problem and that he has “better
things” to think about.

Asked if he was disturbed because some artistes
didn't show concern for his missing son, Mr. Eshun
quizzed, “Will the artistes visit bring back [my
son]?”

According to him, Castro has a lot of friends and
he can't sit and count how many came to sympathize
with the family and how many didn’t.

He said, they haven't heard anything so far about
Castro's where about but are still searching.

Castro, born Theophilus Tagoe, and Janet Bandu
went missing on July 6, 2014 whilst jet skiing at
Ada in the Greater Accra region.
