Actor Lil Win has expressed his deep disappointment and frustration with the way Ghanaians responded to his recent car accident. He criticized the media reports that circulated on social media and television, describing them as “heartbreaking” and misleading, in an emotional interview.
Lil Win clarified that the accident was unintentional, explaining that the car malfunctioned and the poor condition of the roads contributed to the incident. “Who will want to hit the road, kill themselves, and destroy their car? I did not intend for any misfortune to befall me or even the victims. The car is a machine; anything can happen, and the roads are also a factor,” he said.
The actor lamented that the public narrative made it seem as though he was “blood thirsty”, adding that “they made it seem like I had a telescope, saw a child in the car, and decided to kill him.” Lil Win revealed that he himself was seriously injured in the accident and nearly lost his life, vomiting blood the night after the incident.
Despite his status as a public figure and a victim, Lil Win felt that Ghanaians failed to show him the sympathy and grace he expected. However, he indicated that he is not surprised, citing the country’s “pull him down syndrome”. Lil Win’s emotional account highlights the need for responsible media reporting and a more compassionate public response to accidents and tragedies.
