Akuapem Poloo seeks forgiveness as a new Muslim, apologizes for Ramadan altercation

Akuapem Poloo is expressing remorse for her involvement in a widely circulated altercation on social media.

In the video making rounds on social media, the Ghanaian actress, who has recently transitioned from Christianity to Islam, was involved in a heated confrontation with Theo Vesachi, an up-and-coming Ghanaian artist.

“Theo, you are not going!” She shouts before seizing a metal object to shatter the car’s windshield. Shortly after, some bystanders step in to restrain Poloo from inflicting additional harm.

Poloo’s behavior has come as a shock to the Muslim community, especially during the Ramadan period when practicing Muslims, like Akuapem Poloo, are expected to abstain from such violent actions to uphold the sanctity of the month.

In a post shared on her Instagram account, Poloo said, she has received calls from her Muslim brothers, and upon reflection, she is pleading for forgiveness. “I would like to extend a heartfelt apology to my fans here,” she expressed.

Akuapem Poloo also stated “I have also had calls about the video that is out and it’s not good because it’s Ramadan time but out of anger I just couldn’t hold myself. Please forgive me, we are all not perfect … my Muslims are calling me. it’s just 1 and half years now since I converted so I am still learning.”
