Oboy Siki added that when the late Bob Santo, the celebrated comedian and Kumawood actor, was no more, Agya Koo was the saviour of Kumawood movies. Oboy Siki continued explaining that the actor had done a lot for Kumawood and Ghanaian movies but was later removed from several scenes by producers who claimed he had grown arrogant and impassionate about his acting job.

Oboy Siki said:

"I regret stating that he used money from politics to fund his building. I think if I had said it in a different way, they would have still understood the message I was sending.
