Ghanaian actor, Majid Michel, has narrated how he got a Nigerian man scamming in his name arrested.

In an interview, the actor indicated that a young woman approached him in America, insinuating that she had been chatting with him, but he insisted that he was not the one.

According to the woman, Majid had requested $5000 from her to bury his mother, which she was going to send.

He said;

“I arrested a guy in 2014 when my mum passed. There was a program we were at and she walked up to me and said, I am talking to you right now and I was like I am not on Facebook.

“She showed me conversations of she and I, and in the conversation, I am asking her for money to bury my mother and she is about to send $5000”.

The actor added that he advised the woman to keep talking to the scammer while he got in touch with his friend who coordinated with the police to plan an arrest.

Majid said despite telling the woman to ask the man to meet the person who was supposed to give him the money, the artist sent someone else.

He added saying;

“So I told her, don’t stop talking to the guy, keep talking to the guy and I told her ‘Mawuli Gambino’. I’ll deal with him, give him the information, and direct the girl on what to do that we are sending the money, but somebody is leaving Accra, so meet him quickly for the money.

“So my friend Mawuli here got the police, and they went to Osu. The guy sent somebody to come, they got there, and they got the guy. I was in America all this while”.

Majid said that after arranging and organizing the capture of the Nigerian con artist, they had managed to apprehend the young guy who had been sent by the fraudster, and after two slaps he took the police to the Nigerian.

He shared;

“They apprehended the man and he refused, so they slapped him one, two, and then he lead them all the way to the Nigerian man, and they were scamming people in my name”.

Majid Michel performs magic trick live on air

Beyond the acting skills, Majid Michel seems to have more up his sleeve.

The actor surprised his fans with a fascinating act they never knew existed.

During an interview, he withdrew his phone to perform a stunt live on air.

“I don’t want to scare you guys”, he said while opening the calculator application on his mobile phone.

He told the host and panel on the interview, to select who would step forward for the trick.

During the interview, Majid Michel also revealed the real reason behind his lost voice for the first time.

Prior to the revelation he made, he had said in interviews that he lost his voice because he loved to argue.

However, the disclosure he made indicated that the reason he gave earlier was a fabrication made up by him in an attempt to dissociate himself from a traumatic event he experienced.

Majid Micheal revealed to the host that he started experiencing the breakage in his voice after he experienced an accident.

According to the actor, the accident occurred a while ago, when his car was hit from behind by another vehicle, while he was driving away from the Champs Hotel in Accra.

He went on to say that shortly after the occurrence, the breaks in his voice began to occur and that they had persisted ever since.

The actor also indicated that when he told his doctors this story, he was told that his situation was unrelated to the accident.
