"Before the match, I received threats to my life warning me to play the match or else," he said."Thank God I scored two goals in this qualifying match against Sierra Leone.
"I am only trying to put certain things right and correct a few mistakes in Togolese football but it appears some people do not like it.

"Now I am going to go back to Arsenal to think about my future. I have to protect my life and I have a family to look after."
