Ghanaian actor Clement Bonney, popularly known as Mr. Beautiful, recently opened up about the challenges he faced due to his political affiliations.
A well-known supporter of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr. Beautiful shared how his public endorsement of former President John Mahama during the 2016 elections led to significant harassment online.
In a recent interview, the actor revealed that the relentless cyberbullying and insults he faced on social media, primarily from individuals linked to the New Patriotic Party (NPP), forced him to take an extended break from online platforms.
For eight years, Mr. Beautiful stayed away from social media to avoid the constant backlash tied to his political stance.
He reflected on how his political beliefs made him a target, stating, “For eight years, I stayed off social media because of the constant insults.”
The actor’s decision to withdraw highlights the personal toll of being vocal in the political space in Ghana.
