Mohammed Boniface, also known as Kompany, a little Kumawood actor, has shared the heartbreaking story of how his drug addiction destroyed his career.
Even though his coworkers were eager to see him succeed, Kompany claims he was unable to concentrate on his career development because he was preoccupied with other matters.
“I was so lucky to get some celebrities like Nana Ama McBrown who was eager to help me in the industry but I was lazy and stubborn because of my addiction to drugs.
“I have regretted all the bad decisions I took at the peak of my career and it is all because I chose friends and drugs over my career,” he recounted in an interview with blogger Osei Kwadwo Ambassador.

“It got to a point my godmother Nana Ama McBrown will call me for a movie shoot but I will not get time to go because I chose my friends and drugs over acting,” he said.
Kompany claims that he has had a tough time of it since he was so cocky in the past that he frittered away what little money he had.
He is now reliant on the generosity of his fans and coworkers in order to provide for his blind mother, who urgently needs surgery.
If given the chance, Kompany said he would not have passed up any of them if he could go back in time.

“If I have the opportunity to change time and destiny, I would have grabbed all the wasted opportunities but since I don’t have that power, I have stayed away from all bad friends to focus on life.
“I want to take this opportunity to apologize to Nana Ama Mcbrown and all the industry players to forgive me because I know my actions hurt the majority of them,” he sadly stated.
