Ghanaian comedian Funny Face, born Benson Nana Yaw Oduro Boateng, has been accused by some netizens of torturing his dog.
In a video on Instagram, the comedian could be seen throwing his dog. The more he threw the dog, the higher the altitude.
Although playing with dogs by throwing them in some societies can be okayed, some netizens expressed worry over how high the dog was thrown.
“He’s going to hurt the dog…poor baby,” a user wrote. Another added, “Having a dog is actually good for his mental health but he should not be handling it like that.”
Funny Face has recently debuted a new look, sparking a buzz on social media, with netizens showing displeasure over his new look.
Fans, supporters, and critics alike are speculating whether this transformation is connected to his ongoing battle with depression, particularly after his public plea to see his children was repeatedly denied by his ex-partner, Vanessa.
Funny Face has been publicly grappling with significant mental health challenges over the past few years.
His struggle with depression has been well-documented, often playing out in the public eye through social media posts and interviews.
Funny Face has openly discussed his mental health issues, aiming to raise awareness and reduce the stigma surrounding mental illness in Ghana.
