Ghanaian actor Mr. Beautiful has denied allegations made by veteran actress Adjoa Pee that he took part of the GH¢2,000 meant to support her medical bills. Adjoa Pee had claimed that Mr. Beautiful took some of the money for transportation, leaving her with insufficient funds. Mr. Beautiful has strongly disputed these claims, stating that he handed Adjoa Pee the full GH¢2,000. He explained that Adjoa Pee had contacted him about her medical condition and the need for GH¢2,000 to settle her hospital bills.
According to Mr. Beautiful, he approached the relevant authorities and was given GH¢2,000 to support Adjoa Pee's medical expenses. He then travelled from Accra to the hospital near Prampram, where Adjoa Pee had been admitted, and personally handed her the full GH¢2,000. Mr. Beautiful emphasized that he had already been provided funds for fuel or transportation for the trip, making it unnecessary for him to deduct any money from the GH¢2,000.
Mr. Beautiful revealed that he had initially chosen not to respond to Adjoa Pee's allegations, despite her raising the issue for some time. However, he said her continued public discussion of the matter compelled him to explain his side. He pointed to Adjoa Pee's own confirmation that she received GH¢2,000 from him, questioning how he could have taken part of the money when the full amount was handed over to her.
The transaction, according to Mr. Beautiful, was captured on video, further supporting his claim that he did not take any part of the GH¢2,000. He also cited an earlier instance in which he was entrusted with GH¢27,000 to support the medical treatment of veteran musician Naa Amanua at the University of Ghana Medical Centre. Mr. Beautiful emphasized that he did not take any portion of that money.
Adjoa Pee had previously alleged that President John Dramani Mahama gave Mr. Beautiful GH¢2,000 in 2022 to support her medical bills, but claimed that the actor took part of the money for transportation, leaving her with insufficient funds. Mr. Beautiful has denied the allegation, stating that he received the GH¢2,000 specifically for Adjoa Pee's medical expenses and handed it over to her in full.
The incident has brought attention to the charitable efforts of Mr. Beautiful, who has been involved in supporting various individuals in need of medical assistance. His denial of the allegations aims to clear his name and reputation. Adjoa Pee's allegations had raised concerns about the handling of charitable funds, but Mr. Beautiful's explanation seeks to alleviate these concerns.
The matter appears to be resolved, with Mr. Beautiful providing a detailed account of the events. His explanation, supported by evidence, seems to have addressed the concerns raised by Adjoa Pee's allegations. The incident highlights the importance of transparency and accountability in charitable efforts, especially when dealing with funds meant for vulnerable individuals.
