Kumawood Actor Adanko Narrates How He Escaped from Being Beaten To Death Over Alleged Phone Theft – Video

Emmanuel Afriyie, popularly known as Adanko, recently recounted how he narrowly escaped lynching over an alleged phone theft.

The incident happened at Maakro near Suame, a suburb of Kumasi in the Ashanti Region. Adanko narrated that he was returning from a movie shoot during the early stages of his career.

Adanko was attacked by a man he didn’t know from anywhere who accused him of stealing his phone from the car he alighted from.

Before he could say anything, a lot of the Magazine boys rushed towards him and a security man also raised a stick at him.

Adanko blocked the stick with his hand, but they wouldn’t have spared him if it wasn’t for one of the persons who recognized him.

One of the witnesses suggested that they search Adanko first, and when they did, no phone was found on him.

They had to start calling the number which went through, but nobody answered. After several calls, the phone was found in the car he boarded.

As someone who came close to being lynched through instant justice, the actor cautioned Ghanaians against taking the law into their own hands.

To him, it is better for people to exercise patience in every situation before taking any action. Adanko also revealed that the said movie set was one he didn’t even receive a penny from for his works and will forever remain one of the saddest days in his life.
