In a fresh interview, popular actor Dr Likee, also known as Ras Nene, announced his decision to retire from acting.
The mainstream actor gained fame in Kumawood films for his roles as a thug or gangster. He cited constant criticism from his colleagues for not providing enough support as the primary reason for his departure from the movie industry.
Despite his efforts to assist others with their projects, Dr Likee expressed frustration over facing unwarranted attacks from fellow actors.
He emphasized the importance of taking a break to focus on his content creation work and maintain a clear mind.
Following his participation in Nacee’s KAVOD experience in the UK alongside his protégé Kyekyeku, Dr Likee shared his thoughts on the challenges of being a highly sought-after television personality during an interview at the airport upon his return.
Days ago, Dr. Likee was on a different platform where he disclosed that before his rise in the entertainment industry, he engaged in numerous street adventures that frequently landed him in trouble with law enforcement.
The actor, whose legal name is Ebenezer Akwasi Antwi, revealed to his colleague and host of the Okukuseku Show, Emelia Brobbey, that after dropping out of secondary school, life became challenging and he resorted to working as a scrap dealer before eventually becoming a land guard.
He recounted that a man he referred to as his boss, who had returned from the United States, introduced him to the drug trade.
In his desperate pursuit of money and employment, Dr. Likee admitted to participating in the illegal drug trade and earning a substantial income, which allowed him to live a lavish lifestyle.
Dr. Likee emphasized that he even advised former convicts against engaging in armed robbery, instead suggesting they sell drugs, as robbery could result in death unlike the illicit drug trade.
