Derrick Kobina Boateng aka DKB, the Ghanaian comedian and representative at the Big Brother StarGame who got kicked out for slapping a female housemate, may have escaped assault charges but his woes are apparently not over.
He stands the risk of losing his job and a possible arrest for stealing from the Shoprite supermarket at the Accra Shopping Mall. There is a growing campaign from several woman’s rights groups in Ghana against the comedian and the latest twist are calls for his immediate dismissal from Viasat 1 TV where he works as an actor and scriptwriter of the ‘Laugh A Minute’ comedy TV show and also the host of television game show, ‘It Runs In The Family’.
While in the Big Brother contest, DKB had bragged on live TV that he was fond of stealing from the famous Shoprite supermarket at the Accra Shopping mall and this self-confession has also provoked calls for his arrest.
Speaking on Peace FM’s Entertainment Review hosted by Akwesi Aboagye on Thursday, musician and gender activist Yasmeen Helwani Nsiah disclosed that several persons had written to the African Women Development Foundation to back the campaign for DKB’s dismissal from Viasat 1. Meanwhile, DKB is reported to have issued a statement apologizing over the assault incident.
