Kofi Okyere Darko, popularly known as KOD, has opened up on the troubling period of a few years ago when his friend KKD was accused of rape, describing it as the lowest point of his life.
KOD spoke to Nii Kpakpo Thompson about that time and narrated several never before revealed pieces of info about that extraordinary saga.
The ‘rap dacta’, Okyeame Kwame, held a post valentine’s, lovers event over the past weekend dubbed ‘Flaunt Your Lover’ – and the stars were out in force to make the event a success.
‘Flaunt Your Lover’ was an event in which Ghanaians would bring their lovers for a night hanging out with Okyeame Kwame and the wife Annica at the mall.
Have a gander at disgraced alleged serial rapist — KKD, posing with his beautiful daughter Ohemaa. The media personality, whose real name is Kwasi Kyei Darkwa, looks typically suave and debonair as he hangs out his Kensington-based 21-year-old daughter, Ohemaa Asokwa Kyei Darkwa — who is ironically the same age as the girl he raped … Read more
We are still on yesterday’s Glitz Fashion Awards which took place in Ghana.
With the shortage of red carpet events in Ghana these days, the Glitz Fashion Awards was packed–as it served as an avenue for the various Ghanaian Celebrities to showcase their latest wardrobe.
Yvonne Nelson, Sandra Ankobiah, Shirley Frimpong-Manso, Reggie Rockstone and Nikki Samonas were out there.
Also, Ama K. Abebrese, KKD, Zynell Zuh, Joselyn Dumas, Yvonne Okoro and her sisters were there. Flip to the next pages to see what they all wore…
Sarkodie’s little daughter Adalyn Owusu Addo has been hogging headlines for the past few days, what with her dad sharing adorable photos of her and the release of photos from her lovely naming ceremony. But a photo of her being held by KKD has generated a hilarious comment that’s sure to split your sides with laughter.
For normal human beings, the sting of shame is usually something that we ran away from, not gladly towards. KKD was accused of rape by a 19 year old, a near 50 year old man, with kids older than that, involved in this compromising situation. Yet it seems that because he beat the rape charge, we’ve all gone back to pretending nothing untoward was going on that night, and KKD back to being celebrated as some sort of hero.
KKD has gone through all the processes a celebrity who f*cks up goes through with the public, and he’s now back at the point where whatever happened is just a distant memory and he’s everybody’s best friend again. The ace broadcaster over a year ago was arrested for allegedly raping a 19 year old girl. The ensuing scandal was as confusing as it was embarrassing, ending with the withdrawal of all charges against him before the court case had progressed past its initial stages.
President John Dramani Mahama, who has been running a near failed state for the past few years; took to a podium on Tuesday for a press briefing with the Ghanaian media and people. After a few hours of saying whatever he pleased, it came time for the question and answer session. Yet reporters who were there to represent the people in the limited time slot they had immediately became star struck when handed a microphone- asking inane and banal questions of the President who has more to answer for than any since constitutional rule was restored in 1993.
Kwesi Kyei Darkwah (KKD) has been blasted by radio personality and co-host of Celebrity Fanzone-Akosua Hanson for a recent comment he made at Glitz Style Awards in Accra.
At the event, KKD in an interview said the rape case affected his brand positively—sort of saying, he is glad it happened.
“It has affected the brand KKD, people have become kinder to me, people have become more embracing of me and I think another thing that it’s done for the brand is to redirect the energies of the brand towards those who want us to soar,” KKD is reported to have said.
Following the above comment, Akosua Hanson decided to say it as it is—that media houses should stop granting disgraced KKD platforms where he keeps throwing out garbage in relation to the rape case.
She said: “I honestly feel we shouldn’t give this KKD space at all to even speak about it.” She added that “there are always people who will support the alleged rapist.”
Now, let’s cut this as; this man is so full of himself—yet it’s shocking as to why he is still talking about this rape case, claiming it has been a good thing for his brand.
Before the trial started, the accuser wrote to the judge and the necessary authorities to say she was no longer interested in going ahead with the case. She stated that, the media warfare the case attracted had become excessively difficult to handle and that she wouldn’t cooperate if the State went ahead with the case.
This time, the broadcast journalist says, the young girl he was alleged to have raped-Ewuraffe Orleans Thompson was no way 19 years—and that she was older, at the time.
Yesterday, KKD told Bola Ray on Starr Fm that, “the thing is, I do not see how a lady who does not like you, would kiss you so passionately, and you would not be the one pinning them to the wall, and after that, after you have made love, would gladly carry your Prada bag.”
He added “I just knew that the truth would come out and that day I was just there [at the police station] and we were served the bill of indictment, the so called victim’s statement… how do you say somebody says they have been raped, somebody who actually before four witnesses at the police station said ‘I have not been raped why are you forcing me to say I was raped.”
Kofi Okyere Darko (KOD) who is somewhat related to Kwesi Kyei Darkwah (KKD) and was somehow mentioned in the whole KKD rape saga has taken to facebook to make an interesting comment—and to say, someone needs education when it looks like he needs that education.
KOD is marveled by the fact that a female customer who bought his clothes returned them on the grounds that her husband did not like KKD (here, we assume it’s because of the rape case)—and also because of KOD’s association or relation to KKD and the rape saga.
According to KOD, he finds the husband of the customer’s position really unintelligent and as such, he even thought about taking his number and calling to EDUCATE him.
Here, we think the husband does not need any sort of education, KOD does—and we are going to give him one for free.
Has KOD ever heard of customers boycotting brands because of the moral or illegal actions of the owners, the founders or their mere association with criminals or certain wrong enterprises?
Kwesi Kyei Darkwah (KKD) says he is not on any high horse and that his ‘Brand as an iconic Entertainment Personality is intact’ despite the rape allegation which was brought against him. He doesn’t even seem to take not of the moral consequence of his action—-a 50 year old man meeting a girl of 19 year old and within few hours, having sex with this girl unprotected in a hotel bathroom…
For KKD, the cry of the sex not being consensual by the victim is pure nonsense and the State’s inability to prosecute vindicates him, so; he has not really done anything morally, religious or legally wrong—at least so we get. And as such, no damage has been caused to his brand, he is confident about that.
At KKD’s thanksgiving service held on Sunday at The Christ Foundation Family Church in Sukumono, the once alleged rapist who was joined by family told JOY News after the service that.
“People hoped that I will die; some people hoped that I will fail, 30 years ago. Do I have to go their homes to change their minds”?
So a man of 50 years sleeps or allegedly rapes a 19 year old girl in a hotel bathroom—with the girl crying rape and because of lack of witnesses prosecution was dropped by the State, then the man heads to church to thank God.
The question is; Thank God for what?
Kwesi Kyei Darkwah (KKD) is heading to church-The Christ Foundation Family Church in Sukumono near the Golf Course tomorrow for thanksgiving—and I think he should be going there for confession or to ask forgiveness rather.
KKD wrote in an invitation that “Thanks again for your kindness and prayers through this false allegation and four months of persecution. I am deeply touched. Kindly join my family and friends at a Praise and Thanksgiving Service…this Sunday…,” reports Peace Fm.
As a christian, such actions make me wonder what we take God for—-because it seems we have turn God into some big joke. If KKD wants to go to church, I think he should be doing so for forgiveness purposes and not any kind of thanksgiving.
Well, as we say in the Akan parlance, fall in trouble, and any jacka$$ of a person can wake up and throw sh*t at you – because, after all, you gave yourself up.
Whilst KKD is still battling with his rape case in court to see what his fate may be, another lady who thinks KKD should stop chopping the ‘Tonga’ of teenage girls, has recorded what can be considered as the most hilarious song ever for a rapist.
This lady, whose identity is not yet known, actually did a cover version of one of A. B. Crentsil’s songs to send her message across. “KKD, you are not the only one who needs fresh blood for your system. Come to us – – the old ladies and enjoy our tw3” she said.
Enjoy the special rape song recorded for KKD below…
