Appreciate The living Not After their demise in a hypocritical manner-Ghanaian Actor Advises
Ghanaian actor Collins Oteng popularly known as Komfo Kolege has entreated Ghanaians to always learn to appreciate the living making a great impact in the nation and other parts of the world and not after their demise.
The Kumawood actor was speaking in relation to the tragic demise of Christian Atsu whom as a result of his ‘little mistakes’ during his tenure with the Black Stars team was attacked and rejected for his little offenses.
Komfo Kolege who claims he is very surprised about the manner in which Ghanaians are reacting to the death of the Ghanaian winger said Ghanaians treated Christian Atsu unfairly in his football career.
In a Facebook post, the actor who also lost his legal wife in November 2022 said the death of Christian Atsu has really hurt him although he has lost some family members recently.
He fired Ghanaians for also being hypocritical towards the death of Christian Atsu as they are hailing him and now recounting his greater role for the football fraternity in Ghana.
“Hmmmm I’m speechless. Having lost close family members in different settings I feel so sad about this news. He was at some point in time the best player in the Black Stars and Afcon. With little failing Ghanaians forgot all he did and attacked him. Now we’re all crying.
“Life is really short so let’s appreciate it and especially those who do good things. I’m really sad this morning. Rest well Christian Atsu,” he wrote.
The Ghanaian winger Christian Atsu was among the over 41,000 gone souls as a result of the devastating earthquake that hit southern Turkey and northern Syria on Monday, February 6, 2023.
The body of former Chelsea and Newcastle player Christian Atsu was flown to his home country Ghana, on Sunday, February 19, 2023, after several searches for his body in the rubble.
Several prominent personalities in Ghana and other countries including the President of the Republic of Ghana H.E Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo have sent their condolences to the bereaved family.
Other football stars like Mubarak Wakaso, Mohammed Kudus, Jordan Ayew, Asamoah Gyan, and others have also penned their words of condolences to their colleague who was still an active footballer before his demise.
Celebrities were not exempted as the majority of Ghanaian stars within the movie and music industry have poured out their words of condolences to his wife, children, twin sister, brother, and extended family.
