Veteran Kumawood actor Paa George has disclosed that he has fathered more than 20 children, but has officially accepted responsibility for only five.
The actor in an interview explained that most of the women he impregnated in his heydays did not acknowledge him as the father.
Paa George explained is because of the stereotype about entertainers at the time. Those times, they did not respect our work so when you impregnate a woman and you want to take responsibility, her parents even reject you after they know you are into a Concert Party” Paa George bemoaned.
From the president to the children, everybody likes ladies. I was a bit troublesome; they used to call me Kwadwo Blackie. Those times we used to work with ladies more often, so we got the opportunity to have affairs with some of them,” Paa George explained.
“My registered children are five, but one is late now. However, my children will be like 20, only those I have officially registered as my own are five, and one is late, so four now. Paa George is certain most of his children are scattered across Ghana.
Those times, they did not respect our work. So, when you impregnate someone and you want to take responsibility, their parents even reject you. When they question your work background and realize you are into a Concert Party, they drive you away. So, we were not respected at the time,” he added.
