Entertainment pundit KOKA
Entertainment pundit KOKA has expressed concern over the constant abuse of Ghanaian celebrities on social media.
In a discussion on Adom TV on April 6, 2025, KOKA urged people who are fond of abusing celebrities to stop, adding that the constant tarnishing of their brands makes it difficult for them to achieve international recognition.
“We should not entertain people who engage in such behaviour. We call our celebrities stars, yet we put them on TV to humiliate them, how are we expecting people to respect them? These same people want our stars to go compete internationally, yet they kill their shine here at home. So, how will that respect translate abroad?” he said.
KOKA also emphasised that media houses and fellow industry players should join the fight against the abuse of celebrities.
“We should protect and support our own because that is all we have,” he added.
His comments come in the wake of recent instances where celebrities like Sarkodie, Cina Soul, and others have been denigrated in the media, an issue that has sparked massive reactions online.
