Entertainment curator and blogger Eugene Osarfo Nkansah, popularly known as Nkonkonsa, says the controversy involving mental health advocate Abena Korkor did not break him, but rather boosted his online following significantly.

According to him, the scandal which many believed had affected him emotionally and strained his marriage, had the opposite effect. Speaking on Daybreak Hitz with Kwame Dadzie on Hitz FM, he described the episode as “a blessing in disguise.”
“I got one million followers out of Abena Korkor’s issue. I don’t think it affected me in any way. Not emotionally, not physically, not psychologically,” he said.

When asked whether the incident had any impact on his marriage, Eugene said it did not, explaining that the foundation he and his wife had built was strong enough to withstand the public scrutiny.

He added that after two decades in the entertainment space, he always anticipated that a scandal would eventually find him and had mentally prepared himself for it.
“How can you do this job for 20 years and not get a scandal? I wanted to experience what it looks like but I didn’t know how it was going to happen. I knew it would happen. I knew something would hit me hard so psychologically, mentally, my marriage, everything, I was building the walls before it happened. And I was the only person who knew,” he said

The controversy erupted when Abena Korkor released a video alleging she had been intimate with Eugene while he was married, sparking widespread conversation about fidelity, celebrity culture and the private lives of public figures.

Eugene currently runs Nkonkonsa.com, a popular entertainment platform known for celebrity news, red carpet coverage and industry updates. With over 20 years of experience, he has covered major award shows, film premieres and music events, and now serves as President of the New Media Association of Ghana.
