Real men treat women with kindness, empathy, and respect…Prince David Osei fires Sarkodie
Renowned Ghanaian actor, Prince David Osei has waded into the ongoing rift between actress Yvonne Nelson and rapper Sarkodie.
The actress, in chapter eight of her memoir, I AM NOT YVONNE NELSON revealed an abortion she had in 2010 after being impregnated by Sarkodie.
In the memoir, Yvonne Nelson indicated that she aborted the baby following the instructions of Sarkodie who said he was not ready to father the child at the time.
Against this backdrop, the musician yesterday released a song dubbed “Try Me” aimed at addressing the matter by telling his side of the story.
The song received mixed reactions from music lovers, whereas a section of music lovers praised Sarkodie’s dexterity and going hard at Yvonne Nelson, others have said the lyrics were derogatory to womanhood.
In a tweet to express his displeasure, Prince David Osei stated “Childish Tantrums!! Never let the kid in you destroy the king in you … Whoever sleeps with a woman gets her pregnant and doesn’t own up as a man and goes about labeling her “Whore” is the dumbest asshole ever ..”
He went on to add, “She was a “Whore” yet you shagged her unprotected and got her pregnant!! God have mercy on those supporting tomfoolery!! #respectwome.”
The award-winning actor noted that “It’s about respecting and valuing the women we have been intimate with in the past. It’s never okay to use derogatory terms or make someone feel embarrassed for something as natural as intimacy.”
The actor insisted that, “ Real men treat women with kindness, empathy, and respect, regardless of the circumstances. Let’s all strive to create a world where every person is valued and treated with dignity. Take care! Good Morning.”

Osanju is dead
Popular Ghanaian content creator, Elvis Frimpong, known in showbiz circles as Osanju has been reported dead.
According to sources, he was said to have died in the early hours on Monday, September 1, 2025 after a long battle with blood cancer (Leukemia)
His death has been a shock in the Ghanaian community especially coming shortly after his last post.
His demise comes five months after he had laid his mother, Amounu, also a tiktoker, to rest, having lost her in January.
Hours before his passing, he had posted a video on Sunday with friends watching the Barcelona vs. Rayo Vallecano match, prompting many fans to initially dismiss the reports as a hoax.
Osanju’s death has been described as a huge loss by followers who admired his openness, resilience and positive outlook in the face of ill health.
However, Osanju had previously shared his battle with leukemia, a cancer of the blood, on his TikTok account, even eerily predicting his own demise on a couple of occasions.
