Muntari shares childhood bedwetting experience

Former Black Stars midfielder, Sulley Ali Muntari, has opened up about the challenges he faced during his childhood, including the struggle with bedwetting.

Muntari revealed that he used to suffer from involuntary urination, commonly known as bedwetting, which occurred during his sleep at night and even during afternoon naps.

Recalling his childhood experiences, Muntari shared that the bedwetting problem was quite severe, causing him emotional distress.

He recounted an incident when he visited his aunt in Kumasi at around the age of 11 or 12 years old. During his stay, he unexpectedly wet the mat he slept on, which deeply affected him emotionally.

“My mom took me to my aunt at Abuabo in Kumasi. I was around 11, 12 years old, but then I was wetting the bed a lot.

“My aunty sent me back to Konongo; I was really hurt. It was sometime later that my mom took me back, and that’s why I returned,” Muntari shared in an interview with Dan Kwaku Yeboah.

It happened unknowingly at any time. We could just sleep in the afternoon, not in the evening, then I would just wet the mat; it wasn’t even a bed,” Muntari shared with Dan Kwaku Yeboah TV.

The situation became embarrassing and frustrating for young Muntari, and it had a significant impact on his self-esteem. Unable to cope with the situation, his aunt eventually sent him back to his hometown of Konongo, a rejection that deeply hurt him.

Despite the challenges he faced, Muntari found his breakthrough in football during his formative years. With time, his bedwetting eventually ceased, and he went on to become a successful footballer, leaving those childhood struggles behind him.
