The level with which some Ghanaians defend those who have intentionally broken the law, hurt others and have taken away the dignity of others is beyond shocking—and Kwesi Kyei Darkwah’s case brought this to light…
Trust that whatever someone does in this world, he or she will have supporters, mostly credulous supporters who fail to reason or those who cannot for a minute allow their association with the actor to not muddy the water of judgement/reason. Even during Hitler’s massacre of the Jews, he was supported by some people who hailed him and incessantly said he was not doing anything bad.
After reading KKD’s personal apology to Miss Ewuraffe Orleans Thompson, I asked myself; so where are those who defended this man for his actions—and sworn that he did not do anything wrong, be it legally, morally or religiously?
Of course, we are not stupid and the speculation of there having been some sort of settlement or pay off from KKD and his people to Miss Ewuraffe Orleans Thompson’s family seems the most plausible answer to the sudden U-turn.
Cunningly and perhaps in accordance with his hard fought for terms of the settlement, KKD has been short with his words—only accepting that he wronged the girl, apologising and also saying, he has sinned against God with his actions.
It would have been interesting if he went into details as to the nature of the wrong he has done—legal wrong, moral wrong, religious wrong or all the three, so that those credulous defenders will think twice the next time such a case falls on their laps.
If you stood up to defend KKD in the face of the wrong that was done to Miss Ewuraffe Orleans Thompson that night at the African Regent Hotel, be bold and have the guts to also apologies to her—just as the man you were defending has shamelessly done.
If he did nothing wrong, shouldn’t the girl be the one apologising to him for everything that has happened?
Come of it Chris. You are reaching. Where is his admission of guilt in all this? He feels sorry for the attention he’s drawn on himself and the girl. And he’s apologising for that. Why is that strange to you? After all he’s the adult and the man in this case and he’s apologising for his pecadilloes. It is not an admission of guilt by any stretch of the imagination. Sin before god can mean just having sex with someone you are not married to. Why are you surprised the girl won’t apologise? When was the last time you saw a woman apologise for their part in any disaster?
Wait till it happens to your wife, girlfriend, sister or cousin and then come back and tell us that women lie about rape.
I don’t need to wait till then. I know women lie about rape. There are lots of people serving time for rape they didn’t commit. Some were lucky to have been acquitted. Even police officers are not immune from these false accusation. Lives have been destroyed because of false accusations. What is surprising is society’s willingness to accept the accuser’s(if it is a woman) tale as the gospel.
There is no truth telling person left in Ghana including KKD. Why can’t he be bold and say in a statement what he did that is sin which is RAPE. Evil man. This will forever follow you and your children.
Am just wondering why it took him all this while to finally apologise. I bet he’s now realise that it isn’t gonna be easy for him, so the best thing to do is to apologise and probably compensate the girl for the disgrace he’s caused. I bet next time when he sees slender tall girls passing by, you will run for his life. Panin Bone!!!
I go pass Hussein Bolt sef lol 😀
*He
What on EARTH are you going on about. Are you gay or something?! you sound bitter dude always going on about women this women that. You sound like a woman yourself. stop b@$ching and be a man. Just ‘coz you choose to deal with scallywags that’s your really your look out dude. Like men are angels. Some men do rape women not all but some do. The man is a PERVERT or other women would not come out and tell of his perverse behavior. So far as I am concerned this woman has done her job. He has been outed and he won’t ever be respected again. even you with ya mouth would not leave this man alone with your wife/girlfriend/sister/cousin…not even your mother would you leave alone with this man. He may not have gone to jail but the price he will pay is the look of disgust on many ppl’s faces as he passes by…THAT he cannot avoid by throwing money at the situation.
Bitter? Are you’re having a laugh? Or you are really this obtuse. Just because I don’t believe he’s guilty, I am gay? What education system taught you that. Yes there a real rapists out there. But in this case the man is not a rapist. And yes I believe many women can jump on a bandwagon and cry rape when it is safe for them to do so without repercussions. I have seen enough cases of false accusations. You claim he’s a pervert and yet provide no proof. Sorry but if you want to convince anyone, you need proof. Not emotional appeal guff. Real evidence not what your gut tells you. So that’s what she was going for? To out him? Is that what this was all about? Why can’t Ghanaians argue over facts without logical fallacies? You are a woman so I presume you are doing exactly what most women do when the facts are not in their corner. Use the emotional appeal. My sister/girlfriend/mother/cousin will not climb into a stranger’s hotel room, kiss him, get into the bathroom, have s*x with him without screaming or kicking and then scream rape. They are too smart for that.
I am gay because I refuse the kantamanto kool aid you and your ilk are lapping? Are you really this obtuse? You called a man a pervert but offered no proof. I am therefore not surprised you believe another girl who called the man a rapist without any proof. Why can’t you lot have an argument without logical fallacies. Where did I say men are angels? And what the hell do you know about being a man? My sister/cousin/girlfriend etc will not flow KKD into any room. Not even the lobby of a hotel. Because whatever he’s selling they are not buying. So guys talk like the evidence doesn’t point to a case of buyers remorse. Or the girl being forced by her boyfriend to cry rape to save face.
To be frank, I am shocked at your level of understanding and the way you are commenting defending KKD. If he did nothing wrong, he has a bigger reputation destroyed so the girl should apologise or even pay him compensation yet he has forfeited all these and rather he is apologising.
What does that tell you Mr man? Let me give you the 441, the girl was paid 60,000 GHC and many men of God with delegation from Starr Fm had several meetings with the girl’s family begging with their knees down for the girl to drop the case for the money. Again, they pledged that KKD will apologise in public to the girl.
Did you not see how the last one to 2 weeks KKD’s lawyer and Starr Fm have all stopped their plenty talking? Shine your eye because I am close the girl’s family
This is your proof that he’s guilty? WOW!!! Has it occurred to you that it is exactly the fact that he has more to lose than her is the reason for settling? That is if we are to believe that he paid money to the girl. If your claim is true, then it is a bit too late for that. His reputation is already in tatters and he’s spent time in jail. If he was guilty don’t you think he would have made the offer in the beginning to get the story to go away? Rather than serve time, get his reputation soiled then make an offer? Perhaps they decided keeping the story in the news is not helping their client. Hence their silence? You claim you are close to the girls family, then ask them why she didn’t scream for help when her cousin was next door. And why some guys had to file the complaint? Also if you are raped will less that 20000 dollars make you whole? Nonsense!
You make so much sense Manasse . This is simple logic ; which rape victim knowing very well her cousin is a call away will not shout for help or at least protest . How do they want some of us discerning ppl to swallow this warped logic hook , line and sinker ? this is ludicrous to say the least .I salute you Manasse!
Atsu Manasseh, previously,
I admired your stance to talk in defense of KKD even though I did not agree
with you. But to this point, you are coming across as someone who is desperate!
As if you are on a payroll or a relative trying so desperately to play he has
been assigned. It is wrong for a young lady of 19 to warm up s*xually to a man
in public; as it is equally wrong for a 49yr old man [whose real is is more
than 52 years, as he grew up and schooled in Tema, has had s*x with countless
number of young women, some against their will], to just meet a 19yr old, kiss
in lobby and proceed to have s*x just like that! As to whether it was rape or
not, you and I have been denied the opportunity of knowing (not that the law
always has the TRUTH as the judgments anyways). For in the bathroom, whether
Effe said gently, ‘stop, ooo stop’ or not, only KKD and Effe can tell! KKD
stood the risk of going to jail. As for his image, forget it! Jail or no jail,
KKD agrees he had s*x with this young lady, (in the toilet of a hotel)! It isn’t
Effe who is defaming him; it is his acts that have caught up with him. This one
we had the opportunity of hearing, there were several sordid deeds….I believe
if several Elders, Opinion Leaders and Clergy asked me to rescind on a
decision, I would. For it is who we are. Or you would not belong. As for the
crafted excuse for Effe for the courts, police and the public, we all know what
it is. We studied it in the classroom. I do hope precausions have been taken to
protect Effe and her ‘friend’s’ safety. For: report it, no I won’t, report it,
no no. then I’d call your moher! Hello Mom, we came for the programme and
something terrible happened…..” that is how most s*xual abuse and rape cases
are! They always give divided fronts! So Atsu, you may cut the defence! Rape or
no rape, there was s*x in the bathroom of a hotel between a 49yr old man and a
19 yr old lady! Or tell KKD to refuse Effe’s notice and go ahead and prove his innocence!
B) h) bio..WHERE R ALL HIS INDUSTRY Friends now…Lol
TYPICAL OF GHANAIANS…..LETS GO AND SEE THE COMPLAINANT BEHIND CLOSE DOORS AND SETTLE THE MATTER OUT OF COURT APPROACH.
THE GYAN BROTHERS ASSAULT WAS ALSO ALLEGED TO HAVE COMPENSATED, KKDS ISSUE TOO ALLEGED TO COMPENSATE THE COMPLAINANT.
WHAT EVEN IRKS ME MORE IS THE INTERFERANCE OF RELIGIOUS LEADERS, CHIEFS AND INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE IN THE SOCIETY WHO AS SEEN AS ROLE MODELS GOING SOMETIMES AS FAR AS “ON THIER KNEES” TO BEG ON BEHALF OF SOMEONES COMMITED OFFENCE! I WONDER WHETHER THIER MORALS PERMITS AND PROMOTES SUCH OFFENCES, IF A PASTOR BEGS ON BEHALF OF SOMEONE WHOS COMMITTED A SEXUALL OFFENCE THEN WHAT KIND OF MESSAGE DOES HE PREACH TO THE CONGREGATION. MAYBE HIS BIBLE IS DIFFERENT!
THE RICH WILL ALWAYS HAVE THEIR WAY OUT IN COMMITING OFFENCES, ALL THEY NEED IS TO FINANCIALLY FILL THE “POOR COMPLAINANT ‘S” POCKECTS WITH HUGE, UNDISCLOSED SUM OF MONEY AND THEY WILL REMAIN SILENT FOREVER!
INDEED MONEY IS EVERYTHING.
DIGNITY FOR SALE IN GHANA……….. SAD!!!!
So why not use the same logic you are asking me to use and use it to ask yourself how can YOU prove he has never raped anyone? so because YOU have been accused of rape all men that have been accused are now innocent? Really? I never said she did what she did to out him. I said even if he does not go to jail in my eyes he is serving his sentence by being outed for the pervert that he is. A known jouralist in Ghana has categorical stated he has covered up for this man and his perverse ways. Ppl have come out BOLDLY to say this man messes with young girl and you STILL desperately cling onto his innocence. what is that about. Honestly i dont care why you are desparate to side with him. you cannot prove his innocence it seems to me to have been accused because you cannot be this pissed off and emotional on someone else’s behalf. I say you are bitter when you make statements like ‘Why are you surprised the girl won’t apologise? When was the last time you saw a woman apologise for their part in any disaster’….’Women lie about everything’. That’s bitter talk dude. If women are that rubbish go for men. This is my reasonging for asking if you are gay since women are this useless why go for them then? You say all women lie and you talk about emotional appeal. Ha! joker. 😀
You ask for proof that he’s never raped anyone? The answer is simple. Show me the evidence? The rape kit, the police reports etc. Since we don’t have one. I can assume he hasn’t raped anyone. Desperate? I have no dog in this race. Why would I be desperate? I just hate the injustice of the whole episode. A girl has sex with a man then cries rape. The man is arrested and kept in prison without investigation. The women folk get all their tits in a tizzy and construct the gallows for his hanging. That is injustice in my book. I am not emotional and pissed off. I am just stating the facts most Ghanaians including you, are not prepared to face. I don’t have to be bitter to state that women don’t take responsibility for their actions in disasters. That’s a fact. Most women have borderline personality disorder and are master manipulators. That is not bitter talk as I have nothing to be bitter about when it comes to women. If EFFE took responsibility for her part in this sordid affair, she’ll be apologising. As for going for men, that is not my style. I prefer women. As broken and rotten as they are I prefer them in the sack but that doesn’t mean I trust them. Like salted fish, sometimes you hold your nose and eat it. That’s basically me when it comes to women. Having an opinion about the malevolence of women doesn’t mean you want to sleep with men. That is Ghanaian talk. I love my mom. But I also know she lies sometimes. And I am not joking. ;-D
too known man KKD. anomdwa hene , paaaaa apologising…sheeeeee……hmmmm….don’t really know if the majority of the G.H, public will forgive ya.
that is not KKDs signature
KKD u know Ghanaians will never let u go scot free without comments here n dere but hope cuz smfyn happened n I m glad u ve cm out freely… hope all goes well n becareful not time…..
I can tell him anything because I don’t know him and I am not advising him. He’s in Ghanaian jail. He wants to get out so he’ll do anything to get the case to go away. But I hope once he’s out he can sue.
Debbie, I hope you know 16 year olds are allowed to marry and warm up the beds of old bones in Ghana right? I am not related to KKD. I am just looking at this with clear eyes. There was a lot she could have done to avoid having s*x with KKD. But most people are treating this like he held a gun to her head and forced her to put herself out there. Even in nature preys just don’t roll over for their predators.
Just so you know if anyone tries to pull this on anyone here, I will defend them the same way. To be falsely accused is the worse thing that can happen to an innocent person. Even worse than death.
I actually enjoyed reading all your comments,legally speaking Manasseh May be speaking right but Debbie nailed it for me,especially in a country like Ghana,where both Manasseh and I know the law is in the pockets of a few minority or the highest bidder. If Manasseh was talking about another countries legal system I may have agreed with him but in Ghana it’s just more than the courts.Instead of defending him or accusing him,we should hope this could serve as precedent to stop any other persons who nicodemously take advantage of women.We should have rape and defilement laws well defined and made clearer to protect the rights of our women.
