Ghanaian Kumawood actor Big Akwes has stirred controversy with his opinion on the lifestyle of people in Kumasi, claiming that anyone born and raised in the city is a scammer.

In an interview on Angel TV, the actor insisted that from leadership to the average person, including pastors, people in Kumasi are involved in scamming activities, suggesting they cannot live without engaging in such actions.

"Anyone born and grown up in Kumasi is a scammer; I insist on what I say. I’m saying that everyone from the leadership to the lowest person, including pastors, are scammers. Because if you check the young boys at Kejetia, can't you see what they do to people's phones?... what I am saying doesn't have anything to do with the TV station," he asserted.

In the same interview, Big Akwes denied rumours of a marital relationship with Freda, the ex-wife of another actor, clarifying that he never married her.

"I have done nothing to her, and I don’t remember ever marrying her. I don’t want to discuss this because I have international partners watching, and it could jeopardize plans. If you want more details, you should ask Freda, not me," he responded.
