Just when we think the assault on civilians by men and women in uniform has become a thing of the past, a police officer at Kasoa is seen in a video sighted by GhanaWeb attacking the comedian cum actor Benson Nana Yaw Oduro Boateng also known as Funny Face.
According to the actor, whilst he was shooting his new TV series dubbed Kasoa Trotro which is aimed at educating the general public on sanitation and road safety issues, a police officer in uniform decided to physically attack him on set.
He said the officer ordered him to stop filming because people were screaming out his name.
Funny Face took to his Instagram page to write “God bless all good police men and women….When we are doin our best to Educate Ghanaians on sanitation and road safety through my new tv series #KasoaTrotro…...for no reason dis police u see in da video.....and listen to how people were hooting at him…...somebody says “saaa ofri wei koraa de3n na 3ha no “he decided to embarrass me..…..a man says he heard him saying “m3gu na nim asi“ really.....Brother, u can’t disgrace me oo…......seee how everybody was shaming u!

Go ahead and sue the undisciplined policeman
Since you lack education and a clear indication of who and where your coming from... In Ghana we shoot movies in communities etc without permission.. mostly where you ask for permission is the hospital, school, church , airport and higher Now with what happened to funny face u can't just say he needed permission why is he launching a book on the streets. Your a pure hater..be wise
In as much as u need sympathisers don't hurt other people's feelings...ofri people de3 they r animals right?life ..God av mercy on u
Asante Amankwaa Isaac, pls next time if u don't understand anything some post and also if u don't have anything to say please shut your mouth and don't type anything to show your ignorance and end up disgracing yourself. Just read and go offline.
You do not need approval from police to use the road as the road do not belongs to the Police.The City is in charge of the road of where it is located. Don't be ***barred word*** to think the police has power to arrest you for shooting video in public.The city authorities has to authorize the police to stop shooting and even with that,the police has no power to arrest but rather stop.You need education about our laws else you shall always be preyed upon by those corrupt Ghana police.
If indeed the policeman said was purposely violating civil rights as an individual without probable cause,He abused his power and without evidence of funny face committing any crime or violating any code of conduct the police must be stripped off his badges and get fired.This couldn't happen in any advance country especially being caught on tape making inflammatory and derogatory statements trying to embarrass funny face in public.
First question did he get a Prova from the police before using the road Two did he show something to the said police man and he did no agree with him Masa Ghana let be wise and stop making this people call stars look like without them Ghanaians are not there
