In a video shared by Kwaku Jackson, the former child movie star, who is now an evangelist, responded to a netizen who advised him to solve the problems in his family before using his evangelism to deal with the issues of others in society.

The former Kumawood actor dismissed claims that he was not advising his elder sister against her wild lifestyle. He said his sister always had spiritual encounters with God whenever he embarked on serious prayer sessions.

Kwaku Jackson stated that Yaa Jackson would eventually leave behind her controversial lifestyle and dedicate her life to God in the future.

"You think I don't have any advice for my sister? You think that I do not love my sister? It is not like that. Every time I have had the opportunity to seriously pray for my sister, God reveals Himself to her. I know she will change one day."

He noted that he regularly advised her elder sister, whom he loved and with whom he had a close relationship. He said Yaa Jackson listens to his advice and that she can only change her lifestyle if she wants to.

Kwaku Jackson urged critics to be happy for him and other individuals who embark on evangelism for God instead of advising them to preach to family members who exhibit bad behaviour.

He added that Yaa Jackson could eventually change her lifestyle and become more God-fearing and embark on evangelising to people more than him.

Kwaku Jackson's remarks about Yaa Jackson come amid questions about his sister after he was recently spotted preaching on the streets. Despite being siblings, Kwaku and Yaa have portrayed opposite lifestyles in the public scene.

While Nyame Jackson lives a sober life out of the public scene, Yaa Jackson, with 12 tattoos and eight piercings, has been a mainstay in the limelight.

The young actress, who grew up in the Kumawood movie industry with other former child actors like Maame Serwaa and Spendilove Acheampong, has often courted controversy with her utterances and public appearances.

She once admitted to dating a Member of Parliament (MP) who was older than her father, Jackson K. Bentum, at a young age, during an interview with media personality Delay.

Yaa Jackson gave birth to a baby boy at 22 while still unmarried and has regularly received backlash from Ghanaians for her fashion style and raunchy photos on social media.
