Ghanaian actor Kwaku Manu has sparked controversy with his recent advice to the public following the news of his ex-wife’s remarriage. In a video shared on TikTok, Manu, who is a father of four, emphasized the importance of self-love before extending love to others, including spouses and children.
Kwaku Manu advised that genuine love for others can only be given once one has achieved self-love. He also suggested prioritizing affection for one’s job before focusing on family, arguing that financial stability reflects care.
Manu’s comments followed the announcement of his former wife, Diane Naa Okailey Nyarko’s marriage to Tim, a white man, in America. The wedding photos, which surfaced online, fueled speculation about Manu’s emotional state, with some suggesting he might be heartbroken.
In response to the public discourse, Kwaku Manu posted a photo of himself with his children and his ex-wife on social media, leading some to question the timing of the post amid the remarriage news.
While some criticized Naa Okailey Nyarko for her new marriage, she addressed the backlash in a series of videos.

She acknowledged the support from her fans but encouraged them not to expend energy on the negativity.
