Popular Kumasi-based comic actor Oteele has spoken publicly for the first time following the circulation of a viral leaked video allegedly involving him.

Speaking during a TikTok live session on August 13, 2026, Oteele said the situation has been painful and embarrassing, adding that he has had to console himself to cope with the public backlash.

According to him, anyone who wishes to judge him has the right to do so but people should remember that no one is without fault.

“If I don’t console myself, I will die. For someone like me who loves food, I can’t even eat. It is not easy. If insults could kill, I would have died by now. Some people are happy, while others are sad but through all this, I have seen my enemies,” he said.

Oteele added that the incident has helped him identify the people who genuinely care about him and those who do not.

The actor further revealed that he is seeking the support of some respected individuals to accompany him as he apologises to his wife.

“No one is perfect. Today it is me; tomorrow it could be you. What benefit do you gain by going live to insult me? Everyone is free to judge me but those judging me should also make sure they do not sin.

“What I need right now is to find people who will go with me to apologise to my wife,” he stated.
