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.”

The Christmas festivities were nothing short of fun and excitement, especially for patrons of Dodi World in Akosombo in the Eastern Region.
A major highlight was a memorable voyage aboard the famous MV Dodi Princess II, a 150-capacity pleasure boat, which sailed to the scenic Dodi Island, an 84-hectare natural haven.
Among the patrons was a vibrant social group known as ‘Weekend Day Out’, which brings together individuals from diverse backgrounds and workplaces to interact, share ideas and enjoy memorable leisure experiences.
On December 26, the group joined hundreds of other fun lovers to fill the vessel to capacity for what many described as an experience of a lifetime.
The over five-hour journey from Dodi World through to Dodi Island was electrifying. Patrons enjoyed breath-taking rare views of the island’s rich natural scenery and wildlife before returning onboard for the cruise back to the starting point.
The atmosphere was further enlivened by music from DJs and a live band, complemented by an array of drinks and grilled meals, ensuring both young and old had something to cheer about throughout the voyage.
For members of the Weekend Day Out group, the trip served as a joyful reunion with friends after a year of professional commitments, while also providing an opportunity to plan future adventures in the coming year.
Speaking after the event, one of the patrons, Ms Gloria Yaa Baby, said although she had embarked on the voyage several times, the most recent experience was particularly breathtaking and memorable.
“This one was different, with more people and interactive sessions. It gave me many reasons to return and experience the fun again with the Weekend Day Out group,” she stated.
With another exciting adventure scheduled for March this year, she encouraged Ghanaians to make time out of their busy schedules to relax, unwind and enjoy life.
