I’m Happy My Son Is Not As Ugly As Me – Lil Win
While most parents, especially men, pray and wish that their first
children would be spitting images of them, popular actor and comedian,
Lil Win did not have such a wish. Through out the nine-month period of
his girlfriend's pregnancy, although Lil Win, real name, Kojo Nkansah,
prayed for the safe delivery of his baby, he more importantly prayed
that the baby would not look like him. Though he has endeared himself
to many with his comical looks and acting skills, he honestly admits
he does not have the sort of attractive looks several other male
actors possess. He, therefore, did not want his son to look like him
and also suffer the teasing and name- calling he endured until the
breakthrough that brought him fame and wealth. " I have always
imagined the sort of name society would call my son if he looked like
me. I know people would not have hesitated to let my son know how ugly
he was and some could even say worse things I still hear about my
looks. " I thank God for answered prayer. My son, who was delivered
three months ago, carries a striking resemblance to his mother
Patricia Afriyie who is as beautiful as Nollywood actress, Genevieve
Nnaji," the actor proudly told the Showbiz, insisting he was not
acting by saying that. Lil Win also admitted that he was a proud daddy
and went on to talk about how fatherhood had changed his lifestyle. "
Before the birth of my son who will be called Kwabena Ampong, I'd go
out and party with friends late into the night. Since his birth,
however, I've had to stop that habit because I always want to be with
him and his mother. He said when his long-time girlfriend Patricia got
pregnant; he doubted if he could take care of the child considering
his age. "I have always made a promise to myself to make my kids
happy, but my friends kept telling me that taking care of a child was
difficult . That got me a bit scared though I knew I could be a
responsible father.". Known for movies such as Azonto Ghost, Sika
Kasa, Bosam Bofo, Mogya Kronkron, Obaa Nti and Agye Nyame Ba Mu, Lil
Win, 26, said he had no regrets being a father since it has earned him
a lot of respect. Some of his female friends , however, have not been
happy with that decision. "Nowadays when the ladies see me, all they
say is 'hmmmmm! 'Lil Win, so you are now a father'. The facial
expressions even depict that of disappointment but I am not bothered.
"Some people easily forget about the girlfriends they toiled with when
they became famous. I will not do that because Patricia has helped me
a lot. " I know if I was nobody, the ladies who are willing to date me
now would not teven take a second look at me. I will never leave
Patricia for anyone else because she was with me when no one knew me,"
he stated. Talking of marriage plans, Lil Win said he would fix a
wedding date after the naming ceremony of his son which would be soon.
