Fame has happened often overnight for the Ghanaian musician but he seems unfazed by his numerous disappointments that have attracted numerous media attention.

Fans in [Modena] Italy were expecting ‘a stunning tour de force’ during the last weekend which later on ended up as a flop. When the Ghanaian artist who has received numerous awards from the Ghana music awards demean himself after tickets have been touted for twenty euro and above.

Many weeks of meticulous preparation have gone into planning of the trio’s live performance in Italy { modena } after signing an agreement with DID KISS entertainment {Ghanaian residents in Italy }.

Ofori Amponsah received four thousand five hundred euro {4500} cash out of five thousand euro {5000} whereby the remaining five hundred will be paid after the event.

“As part of Ofori’s negligence and transgressions” says the organizers Mr. All 4 Real and his boys came on stage around 2am instead of 8pm as contracted in the agreement.

The melee of people trying to get tickets around that time became angry and left, angry fans who bought tickets started shouting at him and the organizers for the great disappointment caused

One of the fans said “I’ve lived the life of a recluse ever since I left Ghana for Italy , but was able to convince myself because the man with mellifluous sound is performing live in town. And I least expected that from him”.

After a slur was cast on the reputation of DID KISS entertainment, they approached Ofori Amponsah for a redress. The trio agreed by staging a different show for the organizers in a different scheduled date.

Ofori Amponsah felt no remorse for the aggrieved fans thereby moving from the hotel the next day in order to run out of town with his boys.

Unfortunately for him they left Kofi Nti’s passport at the hotel which was given to the organizers by the receptionist.

At the moment, DID KISS is seeking two thousand euro {2000} as a redress in order for them to obtain the passport.

Kofi Nti who is supposed to be in Ghana within the next couple of days is stranded in Italy without his passport.
