Once boasting a fleet of 17 cars and known for his philanthropy, Boateng\u2019s fortunes took a downturn, leading to his recent appearance hawking musical CDs at Adum market in the Ashanti Region.<\/p>\n<p>In earlier reports, he allegedly attributed his financial woes to his exorbitant spending on his wife\u2019s lavish lifestyle, which eventually led to their separation. Left to support their three children, Boateng resorted to menial jobs to clear debts and afford necessities, such as school fees.<\/p>\n<p>Despite his past success with hits like \u201cMakoma so adea kae\u201d and \u201cAsem a waka, mebo wodin,\u201d Boateng now finds himself selling pen drives and CDs containing his music at VIP Asafo, striving to make ends meet.<\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 2 -->\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two prominent gospel figures, Diana Asamoah and Edward Akwasi Boateng are at each other\u2019s throats over their differing perspectives on financial assistance within their industry.
