Christian Atsu has ended the debate over where he hails from.
As can be seen in the attached video, the Black Stars winger reveals his roots, where his father comes from and where his mother also hails from, dispelling the notion that he is an Ewe because of his name Atsu.
"Many people think I am an Ayigbe guy but as you can see me speaking, I come from Ada. My dad is an Ada but it's my mum who is Ayigbe," he told Allsports.com.gh on Wednesday.
The newly signed on Bournemouth loanee also revealed the identities of three other players who also hail from the same area as himself.
"Jonathan Mensah whom I always share room with in camp speaks Ada, same as David Accam and Daniel Amartey who all come from the same area," Atsu added.

this boy should know that is the mother who can tell your father ok. Ada are the people who bears the name Ayi so 'Ayigbe' means Ayi refuse period.
it is good to clarify. persons must check the inheritance of Ewes and Ada's. why did your mum push to name you after her heritage. see the problems she has brought to you. the ewes like juju too much and nobody can be proud of that. some Ewe told me at my work that he was going to kill me.i was surprise in this time and age. how can one be proud of such a tribe. no doubt they are asking to be separated from Ghana so they would celebrate the voodoo festival like it is done in Togo.
It is not Atsu's fault! why? low level of education!๐๐๐๐๐.ur mum is an Ewe and Dad from Ada, so ur not from Volta but Ada,hahahaaaaahaaha. he shld be sent SHS social studies pamphlet to learn abt FAMILY period. concert.
i dont understand.your mum is an ewe but you are not an ewe. am proud ewe. and we dont want you to be an ewe ok. if your mum had been an ashanti you would have told everybody that you are otumfuo's nephew.God punish you.
Why what's wrong being an ewe.After all you said your mom is ewe.Are you now denying your mum? .If you are not ewe and so what?
Nobody ta nodo...running away. Atsu is Ayigbe name...period. Besides there seem to be no difference between an Ada guy and ayigbe person. they are bed fellows
atsu sad 4 ur explanation. learn history proper ok. this things are just made to slip by, atsu
Interesting. Love your Ada accent. Add ewe & you good to go. These days it doesn't really matter even if you full blown ewe. What is really matters is a human being with Christ like attitude.
im a pure ashante and i think this sort of journalism on tribalism is ***barred word*** and should not be entertained.what is this Atsu whether Ewe or Ada,we all humanbeings with created by JEHOVAH.Such a discussion is vanity
So what is wrong being ayigbe guy Atsu?
