His brothers have been sent to prison for defrauding a charity. Akpo however has a warrant out for his arrest and has fled the country:confused:

From reading that article, it suggests him and his brothers started up a faux "charity" but the intention from day one was just to scam people out of money. That's mental. How did they think they would get away with that?

Nicked off Wiki
In March 2010 Ólafur was sentenced to a ten months prison term in Iceland for housebreaking, robbery and violent attack.[15][16] In October 2011 he was sentenced to additional four months in prison for similar charges, including serious violence.[17]
On 25 July 2016, he was arrested after a police chase for driving under influences with his five-year-old son in the backseat.[18][9] He checked into rehab on 4 August but was rushed to the National University Hospital of Iceland two days later due to internal bleeding and broken ribs, injuries he claimed he sustained when the police arrested him.[19][20]

Ha Ha!
To be fair to Olly he got off to a good start three wins and one draw.
I had to pick him up from the Airport ahead of his fifth game a home game versus our local rivals Hearts I impressed the importance of this fixture and that no way can he be on the losing side of Saturday
Needless to say we lost 0-1
It was the beginning of the end for Olly. :greengrin

There are lots of charities out there that are not what they seem. If they got caught then they were not doing it properly.[emoji23]

What a dick.
I've got a Hibs shirt signed by him for sale (all of a sudden) if anyone is interested!!!
Now there's a bit of notoriety about him I might get more than I paid for it lol.

Agreed. Far better than some of the numpties that followed him like Collins and Vine.

He was outstanding in the First Division season. Won us more than a few points as we marched to the title.

I'm with you - maybe I'm getting old and forgetful but I don't recall him being that bad....
RoYO!

He made some howlers during the relegation season but looked a different player after that.

So did Grant Holt.. during a second-tier winning season with by far the best team in the league.
Apparently he was brilliant for us.
Sodje by no means the worst striker we’ve had in the last decade or so. Clearly one of the biggest idiots though!
