From a distance, it was impossible to recognise Danso Sakyi as the long facial hair had changed his look and made him unrecognisable from how he looked during his stint on the YOLO TV series with notable actors like Aaron Adatsi, Fella Makafui, John Peasah, Adjetey Anang, Jackie Appiah, Majid Michel and the late Vincent McCauley.

The YOLO TV series actor also appeared to have developed a big muscular figure, which made him look well-built and in great physical shape.

"Ghana man time."
