Ghanaian rapper Sarkodie recounted a disturbing encounter with a fan following a serious road accident he had been involved in. The incident occurred during a trip from Kumasi to Amakye Dede's home in Agogo. The vehicle carrying the musicians crashed head-on with another car, veering off the road into a bush. Amakye Dede was in the front passenger seat, while Sarkodie traveled in the back with the driver and his cameraman.
Despite being part of a convoy, the other vehicles were far away when the crash happened, leaving the four musicians to deal with the aftermath before their other passengers arrived. As bystanders gathered around the damaged car, a bus passenger approached Sarkodie, not to check if he was injured, but to ask for a selfie. "People saw the accident, but they didn't know it was us.
One girl came down from the bus and said to me, 'Where else will I meet you again? Let me take a selfie with you.' She didn't ask how I was doing," Sarkodie recalled. The woman seemed unaware of his potential injuries, focused solely on the opportunity to photograph him. Sarkodie noted that this incident showcased how celebrity status sometimes overshadows the person behind the public persona, with fans prioritizing closeness to a famous figure over acknowledging the individual's well-being.
