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.
