‘I am an illiterate but very smart’ – Agya Koo hits back at his critics

Legendary Ghanaian actor, Alex Kofi Adu, also known as Agya Koo, has replied persons who mock him because he is an illiterate.

Agya Koo says although he did not have formal education, he is far intelligent than most people who mock him with illiteracy.

The actor published a video of himself on his official X account with the caption, “I’m far more educated and more intelligent than those saying I’m illiterate”.

In the said video, the actor is seen eating a bowl of what looks like a fruit salad while he acknowledged some derogatory statements people made about him.

“Of late, I keep hearing people say that Agya Koo is an illiterate, that I am an illiterate, and many other things,” the actor said.

In the same video, Agya Koo explained that he is as smart and maybe more knowledgeable than his mockers

He said, “Yes, I am an illiterate but very smart and equal to some of you, look at me eating, when I pick the food, do I put it in my eyes or ears?”

Agya Koo was recently in the news after he abandoned a live band he was performing with when an attendant shouted the praise of former president and flagbearer candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
