Kumawood star, Kwadwo Nkansah, affectionately called Lilwin has
disclosed that he would have still been a ‘mortuary man’ if he hadn’t
been an actor or musician.
He said prior to his current status, he worked as a mortuary attendant at the age of 21.
The comedian indicated that he would have been carrying dead bodies
to earn income if he had not pursued his dream of acting and putting
smiles on the faces of many in Ghanaian homes.
Speaking on Ultimate FM’s Brunch hosted by Naa Klordey Odonkor, the
‘I don’t think far’ hit maker indicated that though carrying dead bodies
was a difficult task, he would wish to return to his former career.
‘About ten years ago, when the transport system in the country was
terrible, especially at a small village called Kam 19, hardly would you
see a vehicle plying on our road, the distance from the houses to the
mortuary was far, so I was carrying dead bodies, those days I was
charging GH¢20.00 per a body, it was very heavy but I needed the money
so couldn’t resist the job.
I would have been carrying dead bodies now if not for my new job, I
used to make Ghana-made sandals and shoes, if I stop both my musical and
acting career, I would go back to my former self of making shoes or
carrying dead bodies,’ he explained.
The CEO of ‘Boss Nation’ disclosed that he makes his own footwear, ‘Sometimes I make my own shoes and sandals’.
The talented actor advised the youth to live a healthy life style and
desist from activities that would send them to their early graves.
The actor and some musicians such as Flow King Stone, Medical, Joey
B, Guru, Strong man and others on Monday held Salla festival pool party
at X-5 in Kumasi.
