"Always love listening to Kwaku Manu but Ghana likes to pull him down. I think having such people in the industry is a great thing. We should stop crucifying what we have, especially Lil Win, Kwaku Manu and Agya Koo."

@QWAJAY commented:

"When we said The GOAT Weezy will always show you how to do it, you people did understand, having a press conference about the cast before the movie shoot."

"Where is Wezzy and Dr Likee...?"

@nanayaw0055sarpong commented:

"Eiiii Agya Koo what are you doing there? This is not an NPP campaign platform, so watch what will come from your mouth. Anyway, where's Dr Likee? Kwadwo Nkansah Lil Win are you watching? This is what you should have done not the other way round. Well done guys. We can't wait to watch the film."
