According to the actor, the constant insults he received became unbearable, so he decided to take a social media break for eight years.

"I left social media for eight years. I just came back. I opened my TikTok account two months ago. People used to come on social media to insult me and go because they were not mature. They used to insult me because of my affiliation with John Mahama."

Mr Beautiful recounted how a young lady, who used to insult him on social media because of his affiliation with John Mahama, recently apologised for past utterances.

"Somebody sent me a message from Takoradi in the Western Region, and you know Sekondi, and Takoradi are typical NPP communities. A young lady from there sent me a message saying Mr beautiful I never liked you when I was growing up because of your NDC and Mahama thing, but today I want you to ask almighty Allah for forgiveness, for me because I insulted you, I never liked you, not knowing you saw something we did not see, anytime I see you on TV I feel bad because my conscience is fighting me.”
