<h1>Agya Koo asserts that although he did not receive formal education, he is far more intelligent than most people who mock him for his illiteracy.</h1>

<p>The actor posted a video of himself on his official X account with the caption, <em>“I’m far more educated and more intelligent than those saying I’m illiterate.”</em></p>

<p>In the video, the actor is seen eating a bowl of what looks like a fruit salad while acknowledging some of the <a data-link-role-code="open_new_tab" href="https://www.pulse.com.gh/entertainment/celebrities/agya-koo-professes-love-for-john-mahama-reveals-they-have-been-meeting/x52s14e">derogatory statements people have made about him.</a></p>

<p><em>“Of late, I keep hearing people say that Agya Koo is an illiterate, that I am an illiterate, and many other things,” </em>the actor said.</p>

<p>In the same video, Agya Koo explained that he is as smart and maybe more knowledgeable than his mockers.</p>

<p>He said, <em>“Yes, I am an illiterate but very smart and equal to some of you. Look at me eating; when I pick the food, do I put it in my eyes or ears?”</em></p>

<p>Agya Koo was recently in the news after he abandoned a live band he was performing with when an attendant shouted the praise of former president and flagbearer candidate of the <a data-link-role-code="open_new_tab" href="https://www.pulse.com.gh/entertainment/celebrities/agya-koo-denies-enriching-himself-with-npp-money/9jlbh14">National Democratic Congress (NDC).</a></p>

<h2>In a viral video shared on X, formerly Twitter, by EDHUB, the actor, who was performing with a live band at the funeral, stopped singing to address the attendant who shouted in support of John Mahama.</h2>
