Ghanaian actor and comedian, Kwadjo Nkansah, popularly known as LilWin has bemoaned the criticisms levelled against him following the fatal accident that claimed the life of a 3-year-old boy in May.
Addressing attendees at the Great Minds International School’s speech and prize-giving day in Ahenkro, Ashanti Region, LilWin expressed his pain over the narratives used against him, stating that he has never offended anyone and would in no way orchestrate an accident that could potentially have harmed him.
”With the recent issue that happened with me, people called me proud and disrespectful yet I have never fought with anyone or stolen from anyone in Ghana before.
”I can’t tell if it’s because of the school I built, the house I live in or the car I drive. There is no reason for me to intentionally orchestrate an accident that could kill me,” he said.
LilWin also cited his philanthropic acts, including the construction of the school and stated that his his actions are driven by a desire to do good.
He expressed his hope that future MPs would attribute their education to his school and announced the construction of an additional school building nearby to accommodate the growing number of students.
”Good deeds get good rewards. Several years after when I am old, I want to hear an MP say that he or she got his or her education from the school I built. May God bless everyone especially those who sent their children to my school.
“Due to the overflow of students in my school, I have built another in a 2 minutes distance from the first building to contain more students,” he added.
On his part, The Chief of Ahenkro, Nana Ahenkro Sei-Poku IV
urged all citizens to prioritise peace in the upcoming 2024 elections.
“In the spirit of peace, we should understand that there is only one Ghana, and that elections are meant to choose leaders,” he said.
“It must not become an avenue for conflict and bloodshed, rather, comportment and civility must be the guiding principles in our campaign.”
He stressed the need for Ghanaians to reflect on the extreme partisanship that had resulted in the polarization of the country and contribute to eschewing such tendencies in order not to compromise the peace.
“As the country approaches the general election in December, all must resolve to eschew tendencies that could compromise the peace of the country before, during and after the elections.”
He urged political parties and their followers to avoid intemperate and abusive languages in their electioneering since such may jeopardize the peace the nation yearns for.
