He also explained that the ball of Fanti Kenkey was all he could afford at that moment for his five children.
"It's sad to sometimes hear people say that men have no compassion for their children. Who said men don't have compassion? See these are my children. They are five in number. What I'm giving them is all I could afford," he said.
