According to Dr Likee, not everyone who comes to him for a shot at acting eventually becomes successful. However, he has developed a habit of not driving people away just because they couldn't get into acting successfully.

"Sometimes, I ask if they'd be interested in learning a trade. Then, together with Kyekyeku, Papa Kumasi, Thirty9Forty and the rest, we pool resources together to push them into that field," Dr Likee said in the interview.

He disclosed that there are several people who have become professionals in sliding door installations and other trades because of their efforts.

He explained that his objective is to build talent, while others in his circle have also dedicated themselves to sponsoring the rehabilitation of addicts.
