Popular Ghanaian actor, Kwadwo Nkansah, also known as Lil Win, has expressed his dissatisfaction with the way the people of his own country handled him following the tragedy.
Before his film “A Country Called Ghana” debuted in the area a few months prior, Lil Win was involved in an accident in Kumasi that claimed the life of a three-year-old child.
Many Ghanaians demanded his arrest following the incident because they believed he was the cause of the mishap and should be held accountable for his conduct.
Lil Win was eventually released from the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital, but not before he was taken into custody and appeared in court.
Lil Win stated in his first interview following the incident that he was taken aback by the manner Ghanaians handled the situation and demanded his head in contrast to showing sympathy.
He said: “When I see accidents on television, I sympathize with the victims. However, when I had my accident no one sympathized with me.
“Rather they dragged me and called for my head. They made it look as if I intentionally killed the child who was in his father’s car. I was expecting that people will rather help assuage my pain and that of the family but rather they dragged me. I questioned God for bringing me to this country.”
“I think my life after the accident has been a movie. I am acting out the movie called a country called Ghana. All those who came to follow the movie I’m not sure loved me because if they did, they will not be dragging me but rather sympathize with me for the problems I am facing. Instead of pleading with the child’s family to forgive me, they are rather stoking fire into the issue. I even think some people are not happy that I’m alive but what they want is not the will of God,” he concluded.
