Rapper Agbeko Declines Rehab After Edem Intervention

Rapper Edem revealed that a comprehensive intervention aimed at supporting fellow artiste Agbeko in seeking professional rehabilitation at the Pantang Health Facility ultimately proved unsuccessful due to Agbeko’s refusal to participate in the program.

In a post on X, Edem detailed the extensive efforts made by him and his team to provide assistance to the troubled artiste, who has been grappling with drug addiction for several years.

Initially, they spent time with Agbeko, taking him to an eatery and subsequently to a salon for a clean-up and haircut, in an endeavor to bolster his confidence prior to the scheduled rehabilitation visit.

However, upon arrival at Pantang for admission into the rehabilitation program, Agbeko resisted all attempts to facilitate his entry.

“It’s with deep disappointment that I inform well-wishers and family that we did everything possible to get Agbeko on a new path,” Edem wrote. “We spent the whole day together, and even after four extra hours at the Pantang Health Facility, he refused to enter the programme despite professional guidance.”

Edem expressed gratitude to his team and all individuals who stepped in to assist, including supporters from VRMG.

Concerns about Agbeko’s well-being intensified after a video posted by DJ Bridash on October 28, 2025, showed the rapper approaching Hitz FM’s Andy Dosty on the street to ask for money. In the clip, Agbeko appeared unkempt and admitted he needed cash to purchase “some items.” Andy Dosty declined to give him money, citing fears that it could worsen his situation, and instead offered to buy him food—an offer Agbeko reluctantly accepted.

The viral video prompted Edem to reach out to his colleague in hopes of guiding him towards recovery.
