But it\u2019s amazing how you Kwame Dadzie gave him the room to speak for us,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>While giving a chronology of events to support his claim, DKB said \u201cfrom 2008\/2009 that the fight against Charterhouse started, it was David Oscar\u2019s fight and then it culminated into our fight. It was 2008\/2009 to 2014. Where was Clemento Suarez when we did a show in Cape Coast, and we finished we slept on student desks because literally only two people bought the ticket because they said we were not funny? It had spread across the media, everywhere. Where was Clemento Suarez? Where was Clemento Suarez when we\u00a0\u00a0did a show at the drama studio and about just 12 or 15 people came, and they sat through the rain for us to perform? Where was he? He was doing comic acting,\u201d he noted.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>According to DKB, Suarez was nowhere near the stand-up comedy space when they were fighting for comedy in the past.<\/p>\n<p>Enraged by the statement, the comic actor hit back at DKB, reminding him of when he started his comedy career, adding that when the new wave of Ghanaian comedy started DKB was had not started comedy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI never said that DKB Charterhouse didn\u2019t victimise you. You can say that. What I am saying is, don\u2019t include all these people that you are saying have kept quiet, for somebody in a different field to come and demonise you,\u201d Clemento intimated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd for you to be asking questions; \u2018when the comedy started where were you?\u2019 Na you DKB, when the comedy started where were you? Because me, the drama studio that you are talking about that is where I was born. The days when audience and performers would share the same stage because it was raining, I was there. How can you come from Agric to theatre arts and come and ask where was Clemento Suarez?\u201d he asked.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, DKB has vowed never to talk about any bad experience he has had with Charterhouse, again.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Joy Entertainment Unpacked\u2019 Twitter Spaces conversation is hosted by Kwame Dadzie Wednesdays on Joy FM\u2019s Twitter handle @joy997fm.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>DISCLAIMER: <\/strong>The Views, Comments, Opinions, Contributions and Statements made by Readers and Contributors on this platform do not necessarily represent the views or policy of Multimedia Group Limited.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was a heated banter on Joy FM\u2019s entertainment Twitter Spaces conversation when comedians Clemento Suarez and DKB were locked in a duel.
