The Actors, Presenters, Professionals and Musicians for Christ (APPMC), the Ghanaian Celebrities who have devoted themselves to discipline the nation with love on 27th January brought together Ghana’s super stars to use their life and their commitment to God to inspire the youth populated congregation.
In turns, the stars that were on the bill preached about God and told the congregation how they started, where they started and why they are still unassailable. One speaker whose words were a cocktail of laughter and inspiration was Ghana’s recognized ‘fool’ Funny Face.
The comedian who is known by his colleagues as Adebayor Jr preached God to the congregation. To him, his family has not been a very rich one as he was growing up. They were definition of extreme poverty and he did not have the pampering privileges the usual children of his age had in their childhood.
”If not for God, he (Funny Face) should not even be counted among people left alone stars” he said. Funny Face who mentioned that, though his slogans are the usual ones that circulate among people, taking it up and making it popular goes beyond his personality. He fasts and prays before coming out with a slogan. Some of his popular slogans are “With God on my side, I don’t fear shi333r”, “Swagon Papa” among others.
To his fans, they see such slogans as mere words that are coming from their icon but to him, it is backed by the Holy Spirit. He invests so much of God into his endeavours before outdooring them.
Latest slogan from the Funny Face camp is “what is human being, after all 6 feet” which he told the congregation.
To the congregation, they were electrified with surprise hearing ‘Osofo’ Funny Face.
