‘I wanted to sue’ – KiDi on how he handled the fake ‘stroke rumors’
Ghanaian high-life artist Dennis Nana Dwamena, better known as KiDi, spoke openly about the upsetting incident he went through when it was reported falsely that he had had a stroke while unwell.
KiDi discussed how the false allegations affected him as well as his family, friends, and the brands he works for in an open interview on Daybreak Hitz at Hitz FM.
As you may recall, KiDi expressed his frustration when he discovered that the reports were false and that they were quickly going viral on social media and other platforms.
His discomfort during the event was increased by the overwhelming amount of worried calls, including one from his frightened mother.
The singer didn’t take the situation lightly and considered taking legal action against the bloggers responsible for spreading the false news.
He confided in Richie, the CEO of Lynx Entertainment, questioning the continuous recurrence of such malicious stories. It was evident to KiDi that certain individuals were taking advantage of such situations for their benefit
“When it happed I called Richie 9CEO of Lynx Entertainment) and asked ‘how many times or for how long will these things happen and we will say it’s nothing? How long will we have to keep doing this? People are taking advantage obviously as you can see’. There needs to be some course of action,” KiDi said.
After deliberating about the best course of action, KiDi and his team opted against filing a lawsuit and made the decision to ignore the bad news. Instead, they concentrated on finding responsible solutions to the problem.
Without going into detail, KiDi said in February that he had to postpone his North American tour, which was supposed to take place in March 2023. Sadly, this sparked suspicions and speculative claims, with some saying he had a stroke. Richie Mensah from Lynx Entertainment quickly refuted these assertions, highlighting the fact that they were clickbait.
