A violent, highly-incensed Kofi Adu, popularly known in showbiz as Agya Koo, is reported to have led macho-looking body-guards to a Kumasi Based radio station to give the staff hell threatening to deal ruthlessly with any media person who dared \u201cmess up with me this year.\u201d<\/p>\n
The renowned actor-co-median, who recently beat colleague Majid Michel to emerge the Best Actor at the maiden Ghana Movie Awards, allegedly stormed Dove Fm at Asokwa and stirred up a scene that almost halted the live transmission of an entertainment programme.<\/p>\n
The incident happened last Saturday, during the station\u2019s Entertainment Zone show, which discussed developments in the country\u2019s entertainment industry, from music to movies, to celebrities, among others, between the hours of five and seven in the evening.<\/p>\n
A source at the station who confirmed the incident to The Spectator on Tuesday, added: \u201cHe was very angry and behaved violently, throwing threats here and there, to the extent that he even said he\u2019ll gun us down if we messed up with him this year.\u201d<\/p>\n
Isaac Addo, alias Dada-Ba, a staff of the station who was also on the panel during the entertainment show, denied that the panel used foul language against Agya Koo, and so wondered as to the motivation behind the actor\u2019s unprovoked rude display.<\/p>\n
Narrating the incident, Dada-Ba said the regular host of the programme, Kwame Agyei Kusi, had travelled for a funeral, prompting a colleague, Opoku Afriyie Richard (a sports journalist), to superintend over the show in his (Kusi) absence.<\/p>\n
The panel had started \u201ctalking about the recent Most Popular Entertainer of Ghana (MPEG) 2010 awards held in Accra in which Asamoah Gyan was given the ultimate award.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn our individual submissions, we even reached a consensus that he ultimate award should have rather gone to Agya Koo, because of his enormous contribution to the film industry in the year under review,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThen all of a sudden, we heard some loud voices emanating from outside the studio, so I rushed to see what was happening an there, I saw Agya Koo threatening brimstone and fire and even attempting to enter the studio by force. He was throwing punches at the gate as some staff held him back.<\/p>\n
\u201cNone of our security men was around by then, so we tried to contain the situation by ourselves, by immediately phoning Roman Father (a DJ at Gem FM, also in Kumasi), who happens to be Agya Koo\u2019s closest friend.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe (Roman Father) rushed here and calmed him down,\u201d he said, adding, \u201che was here with his \u2018macho\u2019 bodyguards and two other guys. Gospel musician Herty Borngreat was also in the studio for an interview and I could see she was very shaken by the incident.\u201d<\/p>\n
As to what might have probably triggered the actor\u2019s outburst, Dada-Ba believed \u2018misinformation.\u2019 \u201cThis is because he (Agya Koo) later called the station to say that he was misinformed and that someone had phoned to tell him that we were insulting him on air. He, anyway, sounded quite remorseful,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Efforts to reach the actor-comedian for a comment proved abortive.
It should be recalled that Agya Koo has, of late, earned media attention for not-so-good reasons. Early this year, he was alleged to have caused the dismissal of a colleague actress with whom he was shooting a movie with, from set.<\/p>\n
Agya was alleged to have told the movie\u2019s producer to choose between him and the actress, in a bizarre circumstance that forced the producer to dispense with the not-so-known actress. The public have since read several meanings in to the incident.<\/p>\n
Only a fortnight ago, he was reported by a popular Accra-based radio station to have launched a verbal attack on the organizers of the MPEG awards, since he considered himself the best to have been crowned the Most Popular Entertainer of Ghana 2010, and not Asamoah Gyan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
