According to a report from GhanaWeb. Ghanaian actor and TV host Akwasi Boadi, better known as Akrobeto, has once again proven that his comedic talents extend beyond the big screen. During UTV’s much-anticipated “Day with the Stars” event on January 1, 2025, Akrobeto, alongside renowned broadcaster Nana Aba Anamoah, delivered a memorable news segment that had viewers in stitches.
The event, an annual tradition at UTV, sees popular Ghanaian celebrities step into the shoes of broadcasters for a day, delivering the news and providing entertainment. This year, the pairing of Akrobeto and Nana Aba Anamoah for the day’s news presentation immediately captured the audience’s attention. Akrobeto, known for his humorous antics as the “Real News” presenter, is famous for his playful struggles with the English language, often mispronouncing words and misspelling them in his unique style.
In stark contrast, Nana Aba Anamoah, a seasoned broadcaster with a sharp command of English, presented the news with her usual finesse. The two made for an unforgettable duo, their contrasting styles resulting in a segment that was far more comedic than informational. Throughout the presentation, Nana Aba was visibly amused, frequently reacting with disbelief and laughter at Akrobeto’s entertaining linguistic missteps. She often corrected him, but her attempts to maintain composure only added to the fun, creating a dynamic that left the audience in fits of laughter.
Despite his occasional errors, Akrobeto won over viewers with his charm and wit, and when he got a word right, Nana Aba couldn’t help but applaud him, offering him hugs and praise for his effort. These rare moments of success were celebrated like small victories, highlighting the endearing bond between the two presenters.
The chemistry between Akrobeto and Nana Aba was palpable, as they effortlessly blended playful banter with their news delivery. Their partnership transformed a regular news segment into a comedy show, showcasing Akrobeto’s comedic genius and Nana Aba’s ability to maintain professionalism while indulging in the fun.
At one point, the roles were reversed when Nana Aba struggled with the pronunciation of Twi words. Akrobeto, ever the entertainer, seized the opportunity to correct her, and the audience was treated to yet another round of laughter as their roles shifted.
The “Day with the Stars” event is always a highlight for UTV, bringing together a range of Ghanaian celebrities who participate in various roles, entertaining viewers with both live performances and news presentations. This year, the event saw the participation of several stars, including Salinko, LilWin, Piesie Esther, OB Amponsah, Diana Asamoah, Lady Prempeh, Brother Sammy, and many others, all contributing to the excitement and entertainment.
In addition to the lively news segments, the event featured live musical performances and stand-up comedy, making it a full day of entertainment for the Ghanaian public. The 2025 edition of “Day with the Stars” proved once again to be a perfect blend of humor, talent, and celebration, setting the tone for a year filled with joy and laughter.
The event also included a segment featuring prophecies from various Ghanaian prophets, adding a spiritual touch to the day’s entertainment.
