I did not lie about my age; I’m 24 years old – Yaw Dabo sets the record straight

Ghanaian actor Yaw Dabo has addressed the issues around his age after his interview in Spain by Marca went viral.
During an interview on Wontumi TV, the Kumawood actor explained his reason for saying he is 24 years old.

Dabo said that he was about to lie about his age when he realised that he was on a mission in Europe to find support for his football academy which demanded that he exhibits integrity and truthfulness at all times.

The actor said that he learnt a lot during his stay abroad and did not expect the interview about his age which he had with Marca to “blow” and go viral.

He said that when his interviewer, a journalist from the sports media platform, Marca, asked him about his age, it was evident in the video that he hesitated for some seconds before saying he was 24 years old.

“When the white man asked me about my age, I did not want to mention it. If you watched the video, I was a bit hesitant, I wanted to change my age but I reconsidered my decision because I was there to get help for my club.

“Some of these foreigners like truth and loyalty so I decided to say I am 24 years. The interviewer then said, ‘respect, respect’, and from there, we continued with the interview”, Dabo said

The Ghanaian actor trended globally after being interviewed by a journalist in Spain after the Real Madrid vs Manchester City Champions League semifinals first leg game.

The game, held at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, ended 1-1 with Vinicius Jnr and Kevin De Bruyne scoring for their respective teams.

However, the trending moment occurred after the game when Yaw Dabo was interviewed by the Spanish media company Marca on its after-game live show.

Dabo was very animated as he proudly showed off his Real Marid support.

He said they have the better team and that they will surely win the 2nd leg at the Etihad and qualify for the UEFA Champions League final.
