Ghanaian actor, Kwaku Manu, has opened up about the claims from Okatakyie Afrifa that he is a drug dealer and a money ritualist.
Okatakyie Afrifa made the allegations against Kwaku Manu. The media personality’s allegations come after an exchange of jabs online with Kwaku Manu.
The two have been at each other’s throats ever since Kwaku Manu appealed to President John Mahama to police media freedom and target the likes of Twene Jonas, who have become firebrands by verbally abusing top personalities in Ghana.
Okatakyie Afrifa also argued that the actor’s plea is politically motivated to limit the pressure on the incumbent government. “You were in this town when Asantehene’s name was thrown into disrepute and you were campaigning for the NDC then, so you watched on aloof,” Okatakyie Afrifa noted.
In a recent interview with Kwaku Manu at the Thanksgiving Service of Mama Vida, the renowned religious leader who miraculously healed Funny Face last year, the actor denied Okatakyie Afrifa’s allegations.
He established that the only source of his greatness was his faith and affiliation with the religious leader who has been praised by several Kumawood stars, including Dr Likee.
Kwaku Manu arrived at Mama Vida’s church driving a 2025-registered pick-up with Funny Face beside him.
The actor is known to be one of Kumawood’s richest stars. Last year, he unveiled his new mansion in East Legon, a plush suburb of Accra, and is currently working on a real estate project in Obuasi.
Netizens reacted to the Kumawood actor’s recent moments after Okatakyie Afrifa’s allegations.
“Kwaku Manu is fooling too much and he soon find his level on the grand…… Kwasiato u were happy when people were insulting Otumfour and Akuffo Addo but now crying when the same people are insulting Mahama Aboafunu ….I ever regret buying ur movie hypothetical figure 😏😏😏😏😏.”

In a video making rounds online, Okatakyie Afrifa-Mensah fired back at Kwaku Manu, stating that the actor cannot distract him with what he described as baseless accusations.
“You can’t distract me. If I want to talk about your cocaine business, I will. But again, you can’t distract me. I can even reveal the children you killed in your school. He is not needed.”

Okatakyie also stated that going forward, he would no longer tolerate any comments or provocations from Kwaku Manu.
“From now on, say whatever you want. You won’t hear a word from me because I’ve received numerous calls from respected individuals. I was even embarrassed when they asked me to engage with you anymore. At the end of the day, I cannot lower myself to this guy’s level… When I go head-to-head with him, he can’t say anything sensible.”
