According to the actor, a good Samaritan scouted him as a military talent because of his stout physique.

Most security services have height requirements as part of the admission process. Generally, prospects are required to be of a minimum height of 1.68m (5’6”) for males and 1.57m (5’2”) for females.

While Dr Likee's height got him through the doors, the actor admitted that his stamina couldn't stand the military training.

In a TikTok video sighted by YEN.com.gh, he said military training was unbearable.

That notwithstanding, the actor has gained a significant reputation playing as a soldier in some comedy skits.

While he shared the story, some fans recalled his moments from a skit in which he attempted to recreate the call and response for soldiers on the battlefield. His rendition became a viral soundbite on TikTok and Snapchat for many weeks.
