Edem spends a day with Agbeko as rapper declines rehab at Pantang
Rapper Edem has disclosed that attempts to get his embattled colleague, rapper Agbeko, into a psychiatric facility for rehabilitation were unsuccessful, as Agbeko refused to enter the programme.
In a post shared on X on November 17, 2025, Edem said he had done everything possible to help Agbeko, who has been battling drug addiction, find a new path.
According to Edem, he spent the entire day with Agbeko, moving from an eatery to a salon so that the rapper, who looked unkempt, could get a fresh trim. He noted that after that, they went to the Pantang Health Facility for a rehabilitation programme, but Agbeko refused to enter.
‘Unkempt looking’ Agbeko spotted begging Andy Dosty for money
“It’s with deep disappointment that I want to inform all well-wishers and family that the entire team followed up on Agbeko, and we did everything possible to get him on a new path. Earlier today, I spent the whole day with him from salon to eatery.
“We spent an extra four hours into the evening at the Pantang Health Facility, where he refused to enter a rehabilitation programme, even with professional effort and guidance. Thanks to everyone who assisted, and thanks to team VRMG,” Edem wrote.
A video shared online by DJ Bridash on October 28, 2025, showed an embattled Agbeko approaching Hitz FM’s Andy Dosty on the street to ask for money. In the video, the rapper, who looked unkempt, said he needed money for some items.
Andy Dosty reportedly declined to give him cash, concerned that it might be misused given Agbeko’s history of drug abuse, which has derailed his career.
Instead, the media personality offered to buy him food, which Agbeko hesitated to accept before eventually agreeing.
Following the viral video, Edem approached his colleague to support him in overcoming his addiction and getting back on track.
