A veteran Ghanaian actor, George Appiah Kubi, popularly known as Paa George has revealed that Former President John Dramani Mahama has been taking care of him and other actors. He also said that former President helps the wives of some deceased actors.
Paa George stated that this initiative started after President John Mahama met aged actors at the late Super OD’s funeral. Mr. John Mahama made some of these aged actors his responsibility and he has indeed kept his word since then, according to Paa George. In fact, Paa George said he would not be alive if it were not for John Mahama who supplies him with cash and food after every three months.
Sharing his statement, Paa George stated;
Mahama is a good man. The strength I have today, I owe to him and God. Since OD died and we went to the funeral with him he has been so good. He met with us and some other veteran actors and actress at the funeral and since then, he takes good care of us. Every three months he provides us with food like rice and oil with sardines to go with. He adds money that can take care of us for the period.
We meet at Mr. Mensah’s house and he does not even come there, he does it through Mr. Beautiful. He takes care of us and even the wives of the late actors. Even now that he is not the President, he continues to take care of us. We should be grateful to such people. I’ve never gone to his house, I don’t even know his house.
