Veteran Ghanaian actress Belinda Naa Ode, widely known as Adwoa Smart, has called on Ghanaians to support her build on a new land she recently received as a gift from colleague actor Kwaku Manu.

She confirmed that Kwaku Manu gave her the land after she complained of not owning a property despite being in the movie industry for over two decades.

"He gave me the land last week. He just gave me the land, so I am waiting for the land's documents. He took me to the land yesterday, and it is a half-plot of land. He gave me the land because of an interview I did," she said in an interview with Adom FM, shared on X on August 3, 2025,

However, she called on Ghanaians to support her to begin the building process as soon as possible.

"I am pleading with Ghanaians to assist me so I can put up a building on the land. This would be the first time I am putting up a building," she added.

Adwoa Smart set the record straight on rumors suggesting that former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia gifted her a house.

In a candid interview with Class FM’s Nana Romeo, Adwoa Smart opened up about the pressure these false claims have caused her.

The actress, who has been in the industry for years, shared that despite her successful career, she doesn't own a house, contrary to popular belief.

She explained that bloggers had circulated a photo of her with Dr. Bawumia, giving the impression that he had handed her the keys to a new home.

Adwoa Smart clarified that the photo was taken at the state funeral of the late Nana Ampadu, and her interaction with Dr. Bawumia at the event had no connection to a house gift. She expressed frustration over the persistent questioning she faces due to the rumors, emphasizing that social media, while beneficial in many ways, also has a darker side.

"Social media can be helpful in bringing attention to issues, but it can also spread harmful falsehoods," she remarked, adding that the constant inquiries about the supposed house gift have placed unnecessary pressure on her.

She also told Nana Romeo's listeners that some people used to mock her and called her names when she takes public transporation. She explained that taking commercial taxis without making made her gain weight and feel uncomfortable.

“Walking is really good. Walking is good exercise. It is better than getting on these vehicles. When you walk, people criticise you, and question why you don’t have a car. God has an appointed time for everyone Everyone has their unique streams of income, also. Everyone has their unique glories.”

Adwoa Smart’s candid response serves as a reminder of how quickly misinformation can spread, particularly in the age of social media.
