A member of actor Kwadwo Nkansah’s (Lil Win) team, Zola has shed light on the circumstances leading to the unfortunate accident at Amakom in the Ashanti Region over the weekend.
According to Zola, the accident occurred when Lil Win attempted to evade a crowd that had surrounded his car at a traffic intersection.
He stated that when the light turned green, Lil Win accelerated and swerved a tricycle, also known as ‘Aboboyaa’, resulting in a head-on collision with another vehicle.
Zola also assured that Lil Win is fine.
“Doctors allowed him to go to the cinema because he was fit.”

He addressed concerns about Lil Win’s appearance at the premiere of his movie “A Country Called Ghana” with his head bandaged.
“Even after the incident, he [Lil Win] walked himself.”

Zola also noted that Lil Win and his team are in contact with the family of the passengers in the other vehicle, who are receiving treatment.
Lil Win, a Ghanaian actor and musician, was involved in a car accident on May 25, 2024, with other passengers in the Amakom suburb of Kumasi.
They were rushed to the Accident and Emergency Unit of the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital.
The accident occurred while Lil Win was on a radio tour promoting his latest movie, “A Country Called Ghana,” scheduled for premiering in Kumasi on the same day.
Accident Allegedly Claims Life of 3-Year-Old Boy
A recent accident involving Lil Win is alleged to have caused the death of a three-year-old child.
According to the news, the boy named Nana Yaw and his father, Jacob Kofi Ampomah, were hit by the actor’s car.
Nana Yaw and his father were rushed to a nearby hospital and later transferred to another hospital, where the little boy passed away.
A relative of the deceased child confirmed the news during a live radio interview, adding that the boy was in the front seat with his father when their car collided with Lil Win’s Mercedes Benz.
The relative, who identified herself as the child’s grandmother, expressed dissatisfaction with the treatment of the other surviving accident victims.
“The boy is dead and the dad is at the hospital. The boy died on Saturday after he was rushed to the hospital. He was first rushed to Anyinam and they referred him to the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital emergency ward.”
Young boy’s grandmother
She mentioned that Lil Win and his management have been in touch with the family and have offered assistance. However, the family has declined the help, pending a thorough assessment of the case by the police.
Also, the deceased family expressed concern about the lack of attention given to the victims at the accident scene, while the focus was on the actor.
She noted that she was particularly disturbed that after what happened, he still managed to attend his movie premiere without reaching out to the family and they are very disappointed by that.
The child’s father, Mr. Ampomah, who was driving the Hyundai Santa Fe, is currently receiving medical treatment at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital. His condition remains critical as he continues to be monitored by medical professionals.
His vehicle, which was severely damaged in the crash, is now in police custody for investigation.
Reacting to this, some Ghanaians who blame Lil Win for the accident have called on authorities to apprehend him and make him face the full force of the law.
Eye-witnesses reported that Lil Win was driving at high speed, leading to the accident.
