Big Akwes’ ex-wife blasts him in public
Footage of Big Akwes fixing his bald spot comes weeks after his ex-wife, Freda, launched a series of verbal attacks on him on social media.
The Kumawood star’s ex-wife alleged that her former husband tricked her into marrying him with a cheap wedding ring.
In a video, Freda lamented that her ex-husband had bought a worn-out ring for their wedding and that she had gotten him a genuine and expensive one in return.
She claimed that the Kumawood actor allegedly tried to charm her into doing his sinister bidding using dark magic. She also recounted how their marriage collapsed barely after a year.
Freda accused Big Akwes of marrying her just to secure citizenship status abroad and conduct his business. She also accused him of attempting to physically abuse her several times at home with a bottle.
