Popular Ghanaian actor, Kwaku Manu has disclosed plans to help Ghanaians, especially those living abroad, build homes in Ghana.
He stated that he had the experience and capability to assist individuals who struggle to find trustworthy people to manage their building projects back home.
Kwaku Manu explained that his initiative was primarily targeted at Ghanaians abroad because they were often swindled by relatives or contractors they trusted with their money.
Many have shared stories of sending funds for construction projects only to return home and find no progress.
In a recent case, a Ghanaian man who had been sending money home for years returned to Ghana to inspect his property. He was devastated to find that the land he purchased remained undeveloped despite his financial investment.
Kwaku Manu, who recently completed a luxurious home at East Legon Hills, said he has been helping others with such projects for a long time.
His latest property, located in Accra, is a two-storey modern house with a neatly tiled compound and additional structures.
In a video shared on his YouTube channel, the actor displayed the home to Ghanaians.
The compound had parked cars, such as a 2020 Honda Pilot. He credited his success to hard work, careful saving, and determination.
He also had a housewarming party that saw many dignitaries, such as Osei Kwame Despite and Ofori Sarpong, in attendance.
Kwaku Manu’s real estate ambitions stirred reactions.
“I think Zion has to change the caption and retype in Twi because the comments I am seeing is a NO NO for me. The person said he visited Kwaku Manu in his new Mansion oooo…..eeiiii oooh daabi da.đ”

Old video of Agya Koo, Kwaku Manu Resurfaces
Veteran award-winning Kumawood actors Kofi Adu, popularly known as Agya Koo and Kwaku Manu, courted attention after an old video of them from a movie set surfaced on social media.
The two actors have made massive strides and have achieved legendary status for their immense contribution to the growth of the Kumawood movie industry.
In past interviews, Kwaku Manu has spoken highly of Agya Koo and has acknowledged him as the individual who helped him enter the industry and inspired many others of his generation to follow in their footsteps and contribute to the creative aspects of the Ghanaians.
Over the years, the two actors have maintained a high respect for each other and collaborated on multiple movie projects despite rumors that they were at odds.
In a TikTok video, Agya Koo and Kwaku Manu were spotted on the set of their 2024 movie, The Mall, with their production team as they shot a scene on a staircase.
In the movie scene, Agya Koo aggressively confronted his colleague to claim possession of a gold bar the latter had hidden in his pocket.
The two actors were fighting on the staircase before comedian and fellow actor Jeneral Ntatia interrupted their scuffle, causing them to stop fighting.
In Jeneral Ntatia’s presence, Agya Koo pretended to be civil and playful. At the same time, Kwaku Manu pleaded with the former not to leave out of fear that another confrontation would resume later.
The two actors’ impeccable comedic acting skills made the production crew laugh as they stood a few meters from them to capture the particular scene.
‘The Mall’ movie was directed by Richard N. Appiah, the director behind several Kuamwood projects, including Kwaku Manu’s ‘The Single Father’. Production took place in Kumasi.
