    Funny Face remanded after accident in Kasoa

    The Ofaakor Circuit Court in the Awutu Senya East District of the Central Region has remanded comedian and actor Funny Face into police custody.

    The comedian, whose real name is Benson Nana Yaw Oduro, was taken into custody on Sunday night, March 24, following an automobile accident in Kakraba, Kasoa, that claimed the lives of four people, including a motorcyclist and a mother with two children.

    On Tuesday, March 26, Funny Face appeared in court on accusations of driving while intoxicated and irresponsible.

    While awaiting his next court date, he is anticipated to be detained by the police for a period of two weeks.

    This occurs subsequent to the actor being a part of an incident in the Central Region’s Kakraba, Kasoa.

    Three of the victims are receiving treatment at the Winneba Trauma Centre, and one victim has remained unconscious since the accident.

    The brother of the victim clarified that although his brother was initially sent to Ridge Hospital, they were unable to admit him because of a bed shortage.

    He was then referred to the Police Hospital, but admission there was also denied.

    Mr. Asare claimed that after his brother encountered these difficulties, he was brought to the Kakraba community hospital. He mentioned that in order to make a transfer to a larger medical facility possible, they pray for divine intervention.

    The multi-award-winning Ghanaian dancehall and reggae artist Charles Nii Armah Mensah, better known by his stage name Shatta Wale, has revealed his intentions to assist his troubled colleagues Moesha Boduong and Funny Face.

    The “On God” hitmaker claims that he intends to buy two Shaxi vehicles, which they will use for six months of online ride-hailing services.

    This will give them a stable source of income, he claimed.

    According to the well-known crooner, Shaxi cars bring in between GH¢800 and GH¢1200 per week, which helps relieve the two celebrities who are in need of money.

    In order to finalise the arrangements, Shatta announced that he has given his manager, Sammy Flex, the immediate task of getting in touch with the Funny Face and Moesha management.

    Shatta referred to Moesha as a sister and stated that it is his duty to lessen the financial strain on her family.

    Funny Face, who gained notoriety for his humorous roles in Ghanaian films, has seen his personal and financial situation deteriorate as a result of a public spat with his baby mama. He recently expressed on social media how his unstable financial situation prevents him from seeing his twin daughters.

    Popular actress and social media influencer Moesha Boduong has also been in the news, but for a different reason. Following her stroke, her family started a GoFundMe page to help pay for her medical expenses. Many people are now wondering how fleeting fame and fortune really are in light of the incident.
