"I've caused problems for myself. I understand that there are spiritual things in the world but I won’t blame anyone. There are times people get weary of your deeds and that id the point I’ve gotten to.

“Nobody will understand what you are going through.      I would say I am the major factor of my problems. I am a man dealing with inner demons,” he said. 

Funny Face, who shot to fame for his role in Chorkor Trotro series said he is working hard to emerge from the darkness with newfound clarity and purpose. 

He pointed out that he won’t blame people for growing weary of his actions, however, on one truly understands the depth of his personal struggles.

“Not everyone can survive what I’ve been through in all the stages of my life. Now, I feel down but I don’t feel all is lost. I’ve advised and encouraged myself of happenings in my life. In life, you can’t always be too careful unless you have the backing of God.

“That is why I always have this popular saying, ‘Gye Nyame’. Until God permits it, some things can never happen.  So in this life, it’s all about God.

“But now I feel like a new person who is taking life seriously now.. To God be the glory, I will be 43 years old this year. I can say I used 42 years for playing. I have built properties with my hands and it’s the same way I’ve destroyed many things with my hands. I have offended so many people including my friends and I take full responsibility for my actions,” he said.

As a way of announcing his new beginning, Funny Face said he has gone to wash himself at the sea, hoping to leave behind his past and start afresh.
