Ghanaian musician turned politician, Kwame Asare Obeng aka A Plus stated that he keeps a gun by his side while sleeping for his protection.
During an interview on Hitz FM on August 12, 2024, A Plus mentioned that despite facing a lot of online criticism, he has not met anyone in real life who dislikes him because of his outspokenness.
Nevertheless, he mentioned that he has gotten some menacing phone calls, but he is not perturbed.
He stated that he owns a gun for safety reasons and is constantly ready to protect himself.
He thought about the tragic killing of the former music executive Fennec Okyere and assured himself that he wouldn’t be taken by surprise like him.
“When you fall asleep, you will probably do so with your phone in your hand. I fall asleep with my gun in my hand. Even sometimes, I’m sitting on UTV, I have a gun in my pants. I’m just living and I don’t want to die like Fennec.
“Fennec was in his room sleeping, and then people came and he had to wait for them to come and murder him. Bro, you can’t die like that. He had to wait. He didn’t have anything, no form of protection, so he just had to wait for them to break in and murder him.
“I still have the pictures on my phone. And when I look at Fennec’s pictures, I say to myself, ‘Me, I will not go like that’. The kind of things I’ll do before I die, when you put me on my bed, you see me smiling because I would have shot at least one person before I died,” he said.
