Veteran actor Abeiku Nyame, known in showbiz as Jagger Pee, who recently made an appeal to President John Mahama to support him settle his medical bill says the president has not responded to his appeal.
The actor who has been battling a heart ailment for some months now made a passionate appeal three months ago to the president to support him pay for his medical bills after he was rushed to the Holy Trinity Hospital at North Kaneshie and later transferred to the 37 Military Hospital.
Jaggar Pee told the host of Morning Starr on Starr FM, Nii Arday Clegg, “My appeal to the president hasn’t be responded to, maybe because of the approach. I used the newspapers and social media as mediums to appeal to the president. I feel very ashamed that I don’t have a car and sit in a trotro. At times, I prefer to walk over short distances.”
He stated that proper measures need to put in place to streamline the operations of the art industry to the benefit of all the stakeholders.
Born Abeiku Nyame, Jagger Pee was one of the leading actors in Ghana in the 90s and made a tremendous contribution to the Ghanaian movie industry until an unfortunate situation took him to prison in 1996.
He was sentenced alongside then friend and music star, Geeman, in 1996 following a shooting incident at the CFC Flats, Dome in Accra, where a taxi driver was killed.
Geeman was sentenced to death, while Jagger Pee got a life sentence, but former President John Agyekum Kufuor’s amnesty in commemoration of the country’s 48th independence anniversary pardoned Jagger Pee who immediately relocated to the UK after his release.
Abeiku has featured in a number of movies such as ‘Landlord’, ‘Too Late’ and TV series such as ‘Jagger Pee Series’ on‘Thursday Theatre’ and ‘Chorkor Trotro’.

Is the president responsible for your plight? You led your life the way you wanted it. And did he say he feels shy sitting in trotro? Wow! A beggar with a choice. Good luck. I thought he was supposed to be in jail for killing someone. When was he let out? Take responsibility for your actions. How you laid your bed, so shall you sleep in it.
Id.iot like you. Better people than you sit in trotro so don't bring your forking self at all. You feel shy that you sit in trotro? Are you better than the rest of us who sit in trotro? A criminal and a murderer like you. Don't even make me angry. ***barred word*** sem.
Why do old actors and musicians always think its the government or the public responsibility to help them when they go broke and are battling health issues? did they do the acts for free in their hey days?
Thought u said u neede 20000dollars but the Ghana heart foundation is paying half which is 10,000dollars and thanks to prof. badu kobi u were donated with the remaining half so concentrate on ur health now and leave the president who is busy buyin votes. Guys those who want to help can call him on 0242958030 and assist him. God be with u
Thanks to prof. Badu Kobi u have gotten the cash u needed so pray for the healing hands of God to be on u and stop talking of trotro cos u have to live according to what u have now. Speedy response to treatment
Though prof badu kofi made a donation of 10000dollars 2weeks ago to help suppot u and that donation amounts to the cash that u needed cos u asked of Gh40000, your wife took the donation and tears couldn't leave her to speak. Pray to God to heal u soon cos the president is busy sharing our tax payers money to koku and kofi to share to people for votes
