He went on to say that he was advised not to feature in movies with Agya Koo because he would get outshined, as Agya was huge at the time, and he, Akrobeto, was only a novice. Ace Kumawood producer Miracle Kwasi Nyamekye gave him the advice.

Akrobeto mentioned that he owes his career to Agya as he made Kumawood lucrative and attractive for others like himself to benefit.

Akrobeto stated that he has a strong relationship with Agya and recalled going to his house to thank him when he bought his first car, a Kia Sportage; he also called the icon to show him gratitude when he purchased his Venza.

According to Akrobeto, he did this because he felt he owed his career to Agya as he had a hand in him getting to where he got to in acting. Akrobeto showered Agya Koo with praise and said back in the day, it was difficult for a movie producer to sell a movie that did not feature Agya.
