‘Kojo Antwi’s Song Saved Me From Committing Suicide’ – Bernard Nyarko
One of Kumasi-based finest actors, Bishop Bernard Nyarko has disclosed in an interview with Ash-FM about how he almost took his own life when a very close friend stabbed him in the back, literally.
According to him, life at a point became so unbearable that he could not even afford trotro fare from Pakaso to Kejetia despite extending a hand of love to a brother and his girlfriend who moved in to settle with him.
The actor who has starred in several Kumawood movies, recounted how a song from the maestro, Kojo Antwi stopped him from killing himself just few moments after writing his suicide note.
“From Pakaso to Kejetia is like four miles. Someone will call me to come for assistance and when I get there my phone will go off. Consider the distance trekking back. The suffering was just becoming too much so I decided to end it all. I took a gun and decided to load it in order to kill myself”, he revealed.
“After listening to lyrics of the song, I said to myself I don’t have to die. My brother who had abandoned me came back and that was another haul of problems”, he narrated his ordeal.
Recall that Bishop Nyarko was in the news few months ago when he blasted fake prophets who proclaimed that Dancehall artiste, Shatta Wale would die in December 2018.
