Kwaku Manu has opened up about his decision to gift a plot of land to veteran actress Adwoa Smart.
Speaking in a video, the Kumawood actor explained that the gesture was both a way to honour Adwoa Smart’s lasting impact on Ghana’s film industry and a practical solution to a personal challenge she faced.
Kwaku Manu revealed that before an interview they conducted, Adwoa Smart spoke to him about a land she owned in Dodowa and her hope of building on it. However, upon visiting the location, he found the site unsuitable for development.
“Before we started the interview, she informed me about her land in Dodowa. We went to have a look at it. When I got there, the land was in a marshy area. And it wouldn’t be appropriate for me to plead with Ghanaians to support her to build at that place,” he explained.

Moved by her situation, Kwaku Manu offered her a better alternative.
“I told her I had a land in Amasaman satellite and if she is interested. I would gift it to her. When we got there, she was happy with the location,” he said.
He added that the idea to help build her a home came unexpectedly, but with clear conviction.
“God is the one who asked me to gift her the land. I didn’t have it in mind to gift her the land. But based on what she said. That prompted me to do that.”
Taking his support even further, Kwaku Manu has since launched an appeal online, calling on the public to join him in constructing a two-bedroom house for the beloved actress.
“After the interview, I did a TikTok live asking Ghanaians to assist me so I can build a two-bedroom for her,” he added.
