    It nearly finished me, say no to drugs – Funny Face advises Ghanaian youth, celebrities

    Ghanaian comedian Benson Nana Yaw Oduro Boateng, popularly known as Funny Face, has urged young people to avoid drugs, reflecting on his own experience with substance abuse and its negative impact on his life.

    In a candid interview with Metro TV, the entertainer, often referred to as the “Children’s President,” admitted that turning to drugs during difficult times only deepened his struggles rather than providing relief.

    “Drugs are not the answer,” he cautioned. “When I faced challenges, I resorted to them, but they only made things worse.”

    Funny Face also extended his message to fellow creatives in the entertainment industry, advising them to seek help and lean on a strong support system instead of using drugs as an escape.

    He emphasized the need for open conversations about personal challenges, using his own journey as a lesson for others.

    Most of these creatives, I’ll tell them to stay away from drugs, and they shouldn’t bottle things up inside them. When you’re going through something, talk to somebody. That’s what happened to me. I didn’t talk to people. For a broken heart, I’m a living testimony that it nearly finished me.

    Funny Face’s message comes from a place of personal experience and resilience. His journey through mental health challenges and substance abuse has made him a vocal advocate for mental well-being and sobriety.

    His advice serves as a powerful reminder of the dangers of drug abuse and the importance of addressing emotional struggles through open dialogue and professional help.

    Funny Face and Vanessa Nicole were unveiled at a press conference on Monday, February 17, 2025, as two of the numerous high-profile cast members.

    In recent years, Funny Face had been involved in an intense public feud with Vanessa Nicole after their relationship ended on a bad note.

    The breakup, coupled with the lack of access to his twin daughters (Ella and Bella), negatively impacted the comic actor, causing him to experience a mental health crisis that has plagued his acting career and strained his relationship with his friends and family.

    He experienced a torrid period in 2024 as he attempted to make another career resurgence. The actor experienced another bad mental health episode, which saw him abuse hard substances and make several allegations against his baby mama and other high-profile Ghanaian celebrities.

    In September 2024, Funny Face was admitted to the Pantang Hospital for a psychological evaluation and was discharged after a few weeks. His condition got worse and he began to spiral out of control immediately after he was released from the facility.

    The actor’s struggles garnered the attention of fellow actor Kwaku Manu, who intervened and has been instrumental in his ongoing recovery process.

    Below is the video of Funny Face speaking on featuring in the same movie as Vanessa Nicole:

    According to him, he has been through all of life’s phases, and if he is still alive today, it is a testament to the steadfastness of the Lord.

    Making this known while speaking at a church event dubbed “The Holy Spirit,” Funny Face recounted how he could drive at top speed from Kasoa to Winneba and then to Cape Coast in a bid to crash to death.

    “If God has taken me through this, and I tell you that there is God, believe me. If you don’t believe in God, use my story as an example to know that there is God.

    “People say there is no God, but I want to tell you there is God. I have been to the psychiatric hospital; I’ve spent days in prison. I have struggled, and I know that with God, we will be successful in our struggles,” he said.

    Why some men react dramatically when they discover their partners cheating – Rex Omar reveals

    Veteran musician Rex Omar recently shared his thoughts on why men react differently when faced with infidelity.

    In a conversation with Amansan Krakye, he reflected on comedian Funny Face‘s situation and highlighted the varying emotional responses to such betrayal.

    “Everyone responds to issues differently in life and there are men that when they find their partner having sex with someone it might pain them initially. But after some time they can let that pain go away and move forward in life and there are other men when they see such a thing it will end up destroying his life,” he explained.

    Speaking on his own perspective, Rex stated, “It all depends on who the person is and that’s what it is but I’ve conditioned my mind in a certain way. I came to this world alone, I came naked and I’ll go back naked so I’m not attached to any human being or anything on this planet.

    “What’s most important to me is what people will say about me if I’m no more,” he added.

    In a TikTok discussion with Ghanaian socialites, the comedian mentioned his plans to pursue legal action against Vanessa and her family if his suspicions are confirmed.

    He recounted an incident where he observed one of his daughters seeming intoxicated during Vanessa’s live social media session, purportedly displaying signs of marijuana influence.

    She emphasized that there are no restrictions preventing him from seeing his kids and would be pleased if he visited to strengthen his bond with them, regardless of any personal issues with Vanessa.

    “No one has stopped Nana Yaw from seeing his children, neither Ama nor I. I don’t understand why it appears challenging for him to visit his children. He is welcome to visit them without any hindrances,” Vanessa’s mother stated in a video shared by One Ghana TV on YouTube.

    Funny Face has previously mentioned that an accident he experienced en route to visit his children has made him fearful of making the trip.

    Funny Face needs to apologize, he disrespected my family- Vanessa Nicole

    The mother of Ghanaian comedian Funny Face‘s children, Vanessa has expressed confusion over her ex-partner’s refusal to apologize to her family for past wrongdoings.

    She explained that Funny Face’s past disrespect towards her family has strained their relationship, complicating matters further.

    Vanessa questioned why Funny Face has not visited their home in Kumasi to spend time with their children, opting instead to express his desire to see them through social media outbursts.

    In a video shared by One Ghana TV on YouTube, Vanessa urged Funny Face to seek forgiveness from her family if he genuinely wants to resolve their issues peacefully, rather than airing their problems publicly.

    She emphasized the importance of respect, stating, “This person [Funny Face] has disrespected my family, so the least he can do is come back and apologize. It’s not right to think that having children with me automatically means forgiveness after insulting my family. An apology would make a big difference; my family would understand and we could move forward. But if apologizing is too hard for him and he continues to call me out on social media to see his children, why can’t he come to Kumasi himself? If he claims he couldn’t make it due to an accident, did he even tell me he was on his way to Kumasi?”

    Since their split in 2021, Funny Face has faced several challenges with his ex-wife, leading to various social media controversies.

    Comedian Funny Face continues to face challenges with Vanessa, the mother of his children, who has been reluctant to allow him access to their daughters or even communicate with them via phone.

    Vanessa and their three daughters, including twins, live in Kumasi, while Funny Face resides in Accra.

    “Shut up! Shut up! Was I not on my way to Kumasi with the Porsche Cayenne and I had a major serious accident that nearly ended my life? The car got damaged beyond repair. Vanessa was asked whether she was aware I was coming to Kumasi, and she denied it! 28 August 2021, I had a serious accident at Bonsuom junction, just after Linda Dor,” he stated.

    In a message directed at Vanessa, Funny Face emphasized that his primary concern is seeing his children, not rekindling a relationship with her.

    “Vanessa, I know you don’t love me and I don’t want love from you. You know it. It’s the children that matter. I just want to see my children,” he added.

    Ghanaian comedian Funny Face has reignited discussions about conducting a DNA test on his children.

    A few months ago, Funny Face’s “baby mama”, Vanessa, reportedly cut off contact between him and his children, prompting him to publicly contemplate the possibility of a DNA test.

    This consideration arose when Funny Face encountered a recent change in his relationship with Vanessa, suspecting foul play.

    Now, empathizing with Medikal’s situation and drawing parallels to his own past experiences, Funny Face has revisited the idea of DNA testing for his three children with Vanessa.

    In the aftermath of expressing solidarity with Medikal and subtly criticizing his own baby mama following Medikal’s revelations, Funny Face took to social media to express his eagerness to undergo a DNA test through legal means if necessary.

    In a post shared on his social media platforms, the comedian expressed his impatience for a court order to conduct the test, suggesting a sense of readiness to face whatever outcome it may yield.

  • Nigerian comedian accuses Funny Face of taking performance fee without honoring deal

    Nigerian comedian accuses Funny Face of taking performance fee without honoring deal

    Nigerian comedian Parrot Mouth has accused Funny Face of breaching a contract between them by failing to perform at an event after receiving payment.

    Parrot Mouth claims that Funny Face, a Ghanaian comedian, was booked to perform at a comedy show in Nigeria and was paid half of his performance fee upfront.

    However, Funny Face allegedly demanded full payment before performing, left the venue before the payment was settled, and did not show up at the main event.

    Parrot Mouth’s manager stated that they tried to reach Funny Face multiple times for a refund or clarification but received no response.

    “We paid half of the money. The artiste came to the backstage area, and we all had fun. Then the artiste manager said, ‘You have to pay the balance.’ We promised that we would give his money to him before he climbed the stage. So, they [Funny Face and his manager] should just give us ten minutes.

    “Before Tosca [Parrot Mouth’s manager] came down, Funny Face had left. So, we had to call him more than 50 times, he didn’t pick up the call, and I didn’t even call him for a refund or write to him for anything. Because I believe that whatever you do will catch up with you,” he said while speaking in an interview with Hitz FM.

    This incident adds to the recent legal issues involving artists failing to perform after being paid, with Mr. Drew also facing a lawsuit for a similar reason.

    In a separate development, Funny Face was recently granted bail after being in police custody for two weeks due to a car accident where his vehicle hit five people on the Kasoa highway.

    He has been granted bail with conditions and is expected to appear in court again in four weeks as investigations into the accident continue.

    Funny Face still in prison, a display of a ridiculous justice system! – Barker-Vormawor rants

    Private legal practitioner Oliver Barker-Vormawor has criticised Ghana’s justice system in light of Funny Face’s case and the court’s decision to remand him into prison.

    Barker-Vormawor expressed difficulty in understanding why the embattled comedian was denied bail and detained in prison while awaiting trial.

    He argued that, as a recognisable public figure, Funny Face should have been granted bail with the obligation to report to the police as required.

    In a Twitter post, the prominent activist questioned why Funny Face remains incarcerated, labelling the refusal to grant him bail as unfair and ridiculous.

    “The fact that Funny Face is still in prison cells just shows you how ridiculous our criminal justice system is. The only reason why a judge should deny a person bail is when there is genuine uncertainty that they will not show up to stand trial.

    Funny Face is a recognisable person in this country. He is not a flight risk. There is absolutely no reason why he won’t show up to stand trial.

    “Why do we keep using bail as a punishment? The person is already being tried. So, the purpose of the remand is what kraa? Sometimes, I wonder what really is the interest of judges. So detached from any human empathy or even respect for the sanctity of constitutional rights. Why do I even bother? Honestly!!” he wrote in a post.

    Funny Face was remanded into police custody for two weeks by the Ofaakor Circuit Court after he was hit with charges of drunk and careless driving.

    Use the right channels to raise funds for Funny Face – MC Yaa Yeboah tells DKB

    Ghanaian media personality, MC Yaa Yeboah, criticized comedian Derrick Kobina Bonney, better known as DKB, describing his actions as childish after he announced his decision to stop fundraising for Funny Face.

    DKB’s tweet on X, where he declared his withdrawal from raising funds for Funny Face, prompted MC Yaa Yeboah’s critique.

    In his tweet, DKB expressed his intention to avoid potential backlash similar to what occurred with Akuapem Poloo in the past.

    “I categorically withdraw myself from Funny Face fundraising for the victims. Some manager will come tomorrow and call me a thief like what happened with Akuapem Poloo. I have valuable things to do with my time,” DKB said in a video on the back of numerous backlash from a section of the public.

    In a recent post by DKB on March 29, he revealed that Funny Face had contacted him seeking assistance in raising funds to support the medical expenses of the accident victims.

    Additionally, DKB mentioned that Funny Face pledged to adopt the two children affected by the accident.

    “Breaking News!!! Funny Face reached out to officially give out his Momo details to me for public support to help him treat the victims. To prove his remorse and repentance, Funny Face promises to adopt the 1-year-old and 5-year-old kids involved in the accident,” he tweeted.

    Following this development, MC Yaa Yeboah voiced her disapproval of DKB’s actions on UTV’s United Showbiz. She deemed it inappropriate for DKB to consult Funny Face when it was advised by Funny Face’s manager to wait for the right moment before appealing to the public for assistance.

    “No one asked DKB to reach out to the general public and solicit funds. DKB went to Funny Face’s manager, and his manager told him that he should wait awhile because it wasn’t the right time, so why would you go to Kasoa, where Funny Face is, to tell him you’ve asked for permission? Do you think Funny Face is in the right mind to say the right things?” she quizzed.

    “Even if Funny Face gave you the clearance to go ahead, why didn’t you go back to the manager to let him know what Funny Face told you, but you went ahead to do it? You’ve been in this situation before, so what is stopping you from using the right channels to do the right thing?

    “People are now criticizing you, and you are saying you are washing your hands off the issue? No one has asked you to solicit funds. DKB should stop doing that. He should stop making this about him. No one is attacking him. I’ll tell you to your face; stop being childish,” she added.

    During the show hosted by MzGee, she conveyed that DKB should have followed the appropriate procedures to raise funds for Funny Face rather than handling the situation based on his own judgment.

    Investigate Funny Face’s doctor – Socrate Safo urges Ghana Medical Association

    Veteran film producer and director Socrate Safo is urging the Ghana Medical Association (GMA) to investigate the doctor responsible for comedian Funny Face’s care during his struggle with mental health issues at the Psychiatric Hospital.

    Safo asserts that it is the duty of the attending medical professional to provide recommendations after treating the comedian’s mental health issues, including precautions he should observe.

    He contends that if the doctor neglected to advise against Funny Face driving, they should be held responsible for any consequences, as it suggests the comedian had not fully recovered.

    During an interview with Okay FM, which was monitored by GhanaWeb, Safo emphasized that he does not attribute Funny Face’s accident to the comedian himself, but rather to the medical professionals involved in his care.

    “I will not blame the whole problem on Funny Face but I will blame it on the system. Because once you are taken to the hospital and you have a certified doctor who treats and diagnoses you, there are some recommendations he/she has to make.

    “There are things that by law you have to do; one is, if you are a driver, you shouldn’t drive again because it [mental issues] could come at any time and you can’t control it. If we don’t have that report, then the Ghana Medical Association (GMA) should question the doctor who handled him,” he said.

    Funny Face was involved in a gory accident at Kasoa, located in the Central Region.

    On March 24, 2024, reports indicated that he was intoxicated and driving at excessive speed resulting in the incident.

    Accra-based UTV posted a video from the scene showing Funny Face being led away while others swarmed the vehicle that he was reportedly driving in.

    He has been embroiled in a messy relationship issue in recent years with his baby mama, which the issues led a court to refer him for psychological evaluation.

    He is also on record to have admitted to battling depression at a point.

    In recent rants, he attacked his baby mama on social media, accusing her of scheming to take their three children away from him forever.

    Ghana’s creative industry is to blame for Funny Face’s ordeal – Shatta Wale

    Ghanaian musician Shatta Wale has shared his thoughts on comedian Funny Face‘s current challenges, suggesting they point to deeper issues within the creative sector.

    In a recent Facebook post, the dancehall artist emphasised that Funny Face’s difficulties go beyond personal relationships.

    “The creative arts sector must confront the destructive cycle fueled by depression and frustration. It’s essential to tackle the root causes. Funny Face’s situation isn’t solely about his marital issues.

    “This reflects broader issues within our creative community. Let’s acknowledge the flaws in our systems and address them head-on. It’s time to raise our voices and bring about positive change! My heartfelt apologies to my brother Funny Face, may God guide you through this,”  Shatta Wale stated on Facebook.

    Funny Face was detained in police custody following a car accident where he reportedly hit five pedestrians while driving around 8 PM on Sunday, March 24, 2023, at Kasoa, Kakraba Junction, according to social media reports.

    In an update, Funny Face, driving his Hyundai Atos at the time, was arrested by the police after the incident.

    Funny Face’s license should have been seized long ago considering his mental state – Blakk Rasta

    Reggae artist Blakk Rasta has voiced concerns over comedian Funny Face‘s continued possession of his driver’s license despite his well-known battle with mental health issues.

    Blakk Rasta questioned why authorities allowed Funny Face to retain his driving privileges, suggesting that the nation had failed in ensuring his full recovery before granting such permissions.

    In an interview on the “Urban Blend” show on 3FM, Blakk Rasta expressed disappointment in how mental health is handled in Ghana.

    He highlighted the disparity in treatment, suggesting that if the accident involved government officials, the response would have been different.

    Blakk Rasta placed blame on the state for permitting Funny Face to drive under the circumstances.

    “Our nation has failed the citizenry again. We do not take mental health seriously and it hurts me. Funny Face will walk free anywhere he goes. Once it is proven that he was suffering from a certain kind of mental sickness, my brother, what should we have done?” Blakk Rasta questioned, emphasising the need for stricter measures in such cases.

    He further criticised the lack of action taken regarding Funny Face’s driver’s licence following his mental health struggles.

    Blakk Rasta suggested that the first step should have been to revoke his licence and ensure proper psychiatric care.

    “Funny Face had been to a psychiatric hospital a couple of times. Did they recommend that his driver’s licence should be taken away? We have failed the little children involved in the accident. We have failed Funny Face himself,” Blakk Rasta lamented.

    The incident in question occurred on Sunday, 24th March 2023, when Funny Face reportedly hit five pedestrians with his Hyundai Atos at Kasoa, Kakraba Junction.

    While there were no fatalities, the victims sustained significant injuries.

    The criticism from Blakk Rasta adds to the ongoing debate about mental health awareness and support systems in Ghana.

    The concern is not just about Funny Face’s situation but also about broader issues surrounding mental health care and public safety.

    Ex-footballer Odartey Lamptey trends amidst Funny Face’s accident saga

    The aftermath of a tragic accident involving comedian Funny Face, where his vehicle collided with five individuals, including a mother and two children, online discussions have erupted, drawing parallels between Funny Face’s emotional struggles and the resilience shown by former Ghanaian football star Odartey Lamptey in a similar ordeal.

    Since his split with Vanessa in 2021, Funny Face has experienced a tumultuous period marked by public outbursts, legal issues leading to prison time, and mental health challenges requiring treatment at the Accra Psychiatric Hospital.

    Recent events, including a heated custody dispute with his ‘baby mama,’ have intensified concerns about his well-being and decision-making.

    Comparisons with Odartey Lamptey’s experience, where a DNA test revealed that the children he had raised were not biologically his, highlight divergent responses to personal crises.

    Lamptey’s dignified handling of the situation, including a divorce settlement and remarriage, contrasts sharply with Funny Face’s ongoing struggles and recent accident, raising questions about coping mechanisms and responsible behavior in the face of adversity.

    Netizens, expressing frustration over Funny Face’s actions and urging him to seek closure and move forward, emphasise the importance of addressing personal challenges with resilience and maturity, citing Lamptey’s journey as an example of navigating difficult circumstances with grace and determination.
