"Anyone born and grown up in Kumasi is a scammer; I insist on what I say. I’m saying that everyone, from the leadership to the lowest person, including pastors, are scammers.

Because if you check the young boys at Kejetia, can't you see what they do to people's phones?... What I am saying doesn't have anything to do with the TV station," he asserted.

In the same interview, Big Akwes denied rumours of a marital relationship with Freda, the ex-wife of another actor, clarifying that he had never married her.

"I have done nothing to her, and I don’t remember ever marrying her. I don’t want to discuss this because I have international partners watching, and it could jeopardise plans. If you want more details, you should ask Freda, not me," he responded.

In his subtle reply, Big Akwes acknowledged the remarks surrounding their past relationship. The pair exchanged vows in a private ceremony in Kumasi in August 2023.

However, their marriage was short-lived, as they decided to part ways a few months later due to ongoing challenges within their union.
