Life indeed has not dealt well with long-serving Ghanaian actors and actresses as many having lived all their lives in toil and poverty.
This is not different from ace Akan Drama actor Kwame Peace known in real life Kwame Raynolds situation after thieves stole his Taxicab which serves as a source of livelihood for his family.
Explaining how this sad incident happened, Kwame Peace who is considered as one of the most sought after actor of his time, who starred in the Hit Akan Drama Series “Adasa” on GBC TV said:
“Hmm, things have been so very rough for me so a friend of mine bought a taxi cap for me, which I was driving and making a living out of it. There is no parking space in my house so, I parked it by the roadside just in front of my house at Awoshie Market area only to wake up in the morning to surprisingly realise that armed robbers had stolen it,” he told Razzonline.
The veteran actor Kwame Peace sadly continued that, “normally because I park the car by the roadside, I always removed the car battery in order for it to be difficult for anybody who tries to steal it… but because they were armed robbers ,they stole the car without the car battery. I have six children and life has been extremely difficult for me ever since the taxicab was stolen”.
Kwame Peace who started his acting profession around 1986/87 stressed that he has since reported the matter to the Anyaa police station but to no avail.
He added, “I’m not a lazy man. I schooled at Emit Electronics so before I started acting, I established my own electronic company, but now that am not doing anything for a living; I am also pleading with companies or individuals to employ me because I’m really suffering”.
