A status report on the recent incident involving fellow comic Funny Face at the Kasoa Kakraba Junction in the Greater Accra Region has been released by comedian Derick Kobina Bonney, better known by his stage name DKB, from Ghana.
DKB made it clear that there were no fatalities in the accident, despite early reports implying otherwise. On Sunday night, March 24, Funny Face is said to have knocked down five people, including two children.
At first, witnesses at the scene reported that Funny Face was intoxicated and that at least one person had passed away. DKB refuted these allegations, saying that there were no fatalities and that he had been at the scene until two in the morning on Monday.
DKB sent gratitude to the Ghana Police for their swift action, averting a potentially hazardous circumstance. He stressed the value of truthful reporting and advised people to exercise caution while disseminating unconfirmed information.
Funny Face, who has been candid about his battles with depression, has just come back to the public spotlight following treatment in a mental health facility.
His illness is said to be related to his problems with being apart from his kids; he has been upset that their mother won’t let him see them.
