Additionally, certain individuals speculated about the source of funds used for the construction, with claims emerging that the actor relied on money from the NPP government instead of income earned through his acting career.
“The concern should have been the source of the money since this useless government has been feeding yourself, Agya Koo and other npp celebrities. Exim bank contracted Agyakoo and Shatta wale without disclosing the amount involved and that’s corruption,” NDC activist, Kojo Annan Perry tweeted.

The “Away Bus” actor who hails from the Ashanti Region of Ghana rarely speaks about his personal life and the recent display of his new mansion has captivated public attention with divergent opinions surrounding its design and funding source.
Agya Koo who currently is into catfish farming has shared in the past that he resided in Asantewaa, a suburb of Accra Newtown, where he earned his livelihood as a cobbler.
