Now I know Ghanaians Love Me - Bukom Banku

The controversial Ghanaian boxer Bukom Banku has said in a statement released earlier this afternoon that he is impressed with the love Ghanaians have for him...

News broke last Friday that the popular boxer had been killed in a vehicle accident on the Suhum road. Fans of the boxer rushed to his house upon hearing the news only to be told it was a hoax.

Speaking to journalists after the incident, an excited Bukom Banku said the rumour was just meant to test his fan base in the country; to know if they have real love for him.

“I wanted to see whether every Ghanaian likes me so I told my friends to tell Ghanaians that I had a serious accident and I have died,” he narrated.

“When they told Ghanaians that I was dead, everyone was crying so now I know that everybody likes me very much,” he happily added.
