A former house help to popular Ghanaian musician Kuami Eugene, Mary has taken to social media to air her grievances, alleging that the singer has labelled her ungrateful without clarifying the reasons behind it.
In a self-recorded video that has gone viral, Mary asserted that Kuami Eugene has not done much for her aside from paying her and providing her with the necessary perks as a house help.
She challenged the singer to publicly disclose the specific instances that make him brand her as ungrateful.
“I have been ungrateful to him, so I just want him to come and say it. He should come and say what he did for me that I have been ungrateful to him,” Mary declared in the video.
She further claimed that the only notable thing she received while working for Kuami Eugene was the name “Rockstar.”
Mary expressed her readiness to disclose more details if the singer fails to address the accusations.
Mary emphasised her attempt to maintain composure, warning that if the situation escalates, she may resort to using unprintable words against Kuami Eugene.
She also hinted at potential revelations that could tarnish the singer’s image.
Responding to Kuami Eugene’s plea on social media to stop insulting Mary, she urged him to let the criticisms continue, asserting, “Please Kuami Eugene, for the sake of the respect that I have for you, let them insult me.”
Mary concluded by suggesting that she holds valuable information about the hit song “Yolo,” implying a personal connection to the lyrics.
She hinted at a potential exposé that could shed light on the origin of the song.
As the public awaits Kuami Eugene’s response, speculation and curiosity surrounding the undisclosed details continue to grow.
Mary, the former housekeeper of Kuami Eugene, has issued a stern warning to Asantewaa, advising her to refrain from mentioning her name.
This warning comes in response to a video posted by Asantewaa, in which she ridiculed Mary for her claim that she collapsed multiple times in Kuami Eugene’s house due to hunger.
Mary had alleged that she experienced starvation in Kuami Eugene’s home, with promises of food upon his return that went unfulfilled.
Asantewaa, in response, mocked Mary’s assertions in a video.
In a new video addressing Asantewaa, Mary advised her to mind her own business and focus on caring for her new baby instead of meddling in other people’s affairs.
In response to the allegations raised byKuami Eugene’s former housekeeper, Mary, detailing the challenges she faced while working for him, the highlife singer seems to have crafted a musical reply titled ‘Onyame ehu wo.’
This song, inspired by a piece from the legendary KK Kabobo, serves as a platform for Eugene to express his feelings and position on the issue. Through the lyrics, he conveys a blend of regret, disappointment, and a sense of broken trust.
In ‘Onyame ehu wo,’ Kuami Eugene reflects on the consequences that individuals who engage in such actions may face, emphasising that divine punishment often awaits those who betray trust. The song serves as a medium for the artist to communicate his perspective on the matter in musical form.
“In whatever you’re doing, remember that God is watching you. Remember, God is watching you if you are fond of embarrassing your fellow humans by spewing lies and backbiting them. God is watching you.
“Think about it. If you will change, change because God is watching you. You act as though you love me, but in your heart, you hate me. What didn’t I do for you? But you’re going around talking about me. Spewing lies about me, what you are doing is one of the things God hates the most,” parts of the lyrics read.
Prior to the development, Eugene took to Twitter to share an indirect jab at his house help after her first batch of rants in an interview with Der Mad King TV went viral.
He took to social media with a response which read, ‘Nipa bi y3 cobra, an Akan phrase that translates to ‘Some humans are snakes.’

Background
In Mary’s two widely circulated interviews, she provided insights into the reasons behind her dismissal from Kuami Eugene’s residence, citing allegations of neglect, among other issues.
Initially, Mary candidly acknowledged her role in the strained relationship,attributing Kuami Eugene’s change in behaviour to her inability to effectively carry out certain tasks. According to her, this became a point of contention, leading to the deterioration of their working relationship.
Mary, who is no longer employed by Kuami Eugene, revealed that she was presented with two options: either accepting a reduction in her salary from GH₵600 to GH₵400 or vacating the premises.
She went on to share instances where she experienced health challenges, collapsing in the highlife musician’s house due to inadequate nutrition and other undisclosed reasons.
These revelations from Mary shed light on the complexities that contributed to her departure from Kuami Eugene’s household and the challenges she faced during her tenure.
Famous Ghanaian socialite Afia Schwarzenegger has strongly criticised Kuami Eugene’s former housekeeper, Mary, and her mother for their allegations against the highlife musician.
In her assessment, Afia Schwarzenegger deemed the accusations implausible, emphasising the significant support the artist has reportedly provided to them in the past.
Having closely followed their revelations, Afia Schwarzenegger suggested that there might be underlying mental health issues contributing to Mary and her mother’s statements.
“Now Kuami Eugene’s house helps. Mary is on a media tour, right? She is a fool; she and her mother are suffering from mental issues. She said Kuami Eugene left the house without giving her food. Meanwhile, you are paid, like, 600 cedis. So if one day you take your money to buy food, is it a sin?
“You live in a house without paying utility bills yet you don’t want to spend a penny on food. It is because of some of these things that I don’t want to help people because human beings are ungrateful,” she said.
She continued: “Do you know the rent in Accra alone? Her mother is also claiming that her daughter is now sick after staying with Kuami Eugene. Is he the only person to dismiss his housekeeper? This is not news; do you know the workers I have sacked?”
Meanwhile, the likes of Akuapem Polo, Broda Sammy, and many others have shared their two cents on the situation.
Background
Not too long after Mary stormed the media with some allegations about her former boss, her mother joined in the fray.
It would be recalled that Mary, in an interview with Der Mad King TV, claimed that she had starved and even collapsed multiple times while working at Kuami Eugene’s house.
Mary’s mother also claimed that her daughter, after being sacked from the musician’s home, returned with an unidentified sickness that left her in a coma for a while.
“When my daughter left my place, she was totally healthy, but when she came back from his house, she had a serious sickness that no one knew about.
“She even fell into a coma. We had to take her to a clinic but the doctors there couldn’t do anything about it. So we had to refer her to Tetteh Qwashie,” she said.
Former house help ofKuami Eugene,Mary, revealed that her recent revelations about her ex-boss have resulted in numerous threats directed towards her.
She shared that the threats are coming from Kuami Eugene’s camp, specifically from his school father, known as ‘Father.’ Mary disclosed that ‘Father’ recently contacted her, advising her to cease granting interviews for her own well-being.
“Kuami Eugene’s school father, I call him Father. He recently called me and said if I want peace of mind, I should stop talking. I don’t know what he means by that. He could send someone to come hurt me, because he asked about my location and all that.
“After the first interview, he kept calling, but I refused to pick up. So, I returned the calls later and he told me that instead of keeping quiet and choosing peace, I had chosen to grant interviews.
“He said it’s been just a few weeks since I left Kuami’s house yet I am granting interviews,” she retorted in an interview with Der Madking TV.
Mary’s mother has also claimed that her daughter, after being sacked from Kuami Eugene’s house, returned with an unidentified sickness that left her in a coma for a while.
“When my daughter left my place, she was totally healthy, but when she came back from his house, she had a serious sickness that no one knew about. She even fell into a coma. We had to take her to a clinic but the doctors there couldn’t do anything about it. So we had to refer her to Tetteh Quarshie,” she said.
In two widely circulated interviews, Mary disclosed the reasons behind her dismissalfrom Kuami Eugene’s residence, amidst allegations of neglect and other grievances.
Initially, Mary acknowledged being the source of their discord, attributing Kuami Eugene’s change in behavior to her failure to efficiently handle certain tasks.
Additionally, she pointed out concerns of neglect and inadequate care as contributing factors that led to her decision to leave the house.
Shortly after Mary, Kuami Eugene’s former household member, went public with certain allegations against the artist, her mother also joined in making her claims.
Mary, in an interview with GhPage TV, asserted that she had faced starvation and had collapsed on multiple occasions while working for Kuami Eugene.
She also alleged receiving warnings from the artist’s girlfriend to stay away.
In tandem with these accusations, Mary’s mother, who remained unnamed, has asserted that following Mary’s dismissal, her daughter returned from the artist’s residence with an unidentified illness that led to her falling into a coma.
The family, according to Mary’s mother, had to urgently transport her to a clinic and subsequently to another hospital for further treatment.
“When my daughter left my place, she was totally healthy, but when she came back from his house, she had a serious sickness that no one knew about.
“She even fell into a coma. We had to take her to a clinic but the doctors there couldn’t do anything about it. So we had to refer her to Tetteh Kwashie,” she said.
The mother further alleged that a man who claimed to be the school father of Kuami Eugene had called Mary and warned her to stop granting interviews to the media about her ordeals.
“Even when a man claiming to be Kuami Eugene’s school father called, he never bothered to ask about her health or how she was doing. He warned her to stop granting interviews, or else she would regret it,” she said.
Kuami Eugene, however, has not issued any statements or responses regarding these allegations.
Mary shared details of incidents where she experienced health issues, even collapsing while residing in the singer’s house, citing an improper diet and undisclosed factors.
During her recent interview with Der Madking TV, she claimed that on one occasion, she informed Eugene about her condition. However, despite being out of the country at the time, he allegedly only sent money for her to buy drugs, not encouraging her to seek proper medical attention.
Mary explained that the funds provided were for purchasing blood tonics and vitamins, which proved insufficient in addressing her health concerns. As the situation worsened, she had to seek assistance from a neighbour and eventually had to be rushed to the hospital.
“I didn’t eat well and it created problems for me. There was food but not always. Sometimes the food gets finished. There could be rice but nothing to prepare it with. And when instances like that happen, he steps out and when I ask him for money, he tells me he will be back soon but never returns early. If I don’t have money to buy food, I’d have to starve till he gets back.
“I have collapsed about four times, both at home and outside. In one of the instances, he travelled outside the country and I informed him about the situation. But he sent me money and told me to buy drugs. I told him I wanted to go to the hospital but he insisted that I buy drugs instead.
“I bought some blood tonic and vitamin C, but my condition worsened at night so I called one of our neighbours and complained about my plight. My teeth were even clenching at the moment; my palm turned white and I was palpitating. When I regained consciousness at the hospital, I kept mentioning his name. I won’t sit here and lie,” she expressed.

Addressing the numerous criticisms she has faced for expressing her thoughts, Mary asserted that all her statements are nothing but the truth.
“God is watching us. God knows I am not telling lies,” she insisted.
Meanwhile, Kuami Eugene is yet to share his side of the story.
Earlier, after Mary’s first batch of rants, he took to Twitter to post an indirect response which read ‘Nipa bi y3 cobra’, an Akan phrase that translates to ‘Some humans are snakes.’
“Rockstar” Kuami Eugene has offered a subtle response to the revelations made by his former housekeeper, Mary, regarding the difficulties she encountered while working for him.
Mary detailed her experience in an exclusive interview, revealing that she initially received a meagre monthly salary of Gh400 when she started working for the musician.
“When I started working with him, he was paying me Gh400. However, after one year, he added Gh100 to it making my salary Gh500. The following year, he did the same until he recently sacked me,” Mary stated.
Asked why she was sacked, Mary revealed she was sent on an errand by a lady friend of the reality show star but returned late that day.
“He sacked me because I returned late from an errand. Frankly speaking, I got home late that day. A lady friend of his asked me to deliver something and I think I got home after 12 a.m. that day,” Mary added.
In response to the news on Twitter, Kuami Eugene expressed his astonishment at Mary’s allegations by sharing the popular Ghanaian phrase, “Nipa bi y3 cobra.”
Vin Diesel has become the latest star to be teased in the viral meme trend that sees Twitter users post 3D-rendered versions of famous celebrities to comedic effect.
The Fast and Furious actor’s name began trending on Twitter after the Alamo Drafthouse New York City account tweeted out a computer animated image of a man bearing a distinct resemblance to Vin Diesel alongside a spoof claim regarding its origins.
“Scientists at Princeton University have reconstructed this 3D model of how Adam, the first human being created by God, might have looked,” they wrote alongside the picture.

The gag soon went viral, with the original tweet garnering over 11,500 retweets, 19,500 quote tweets and 128,700 likes. The Vin Diesel wisecracks, meanwhile, flew thick and fast.
“Was his name Vin Diesel?” Tisaiyan asked, while Mfanelo couldn’t resist a reference to Dom Toretto’s favorite catchphrase from the Fast and Furious movies, writing: “And God said unto him; let there be FAMILY.”
A PHD student at the MIT came up with a thesis in support suggesting that Eve might have looked like this pic.twitter.com/n3EyFJZ9zW
He wasn’t alone in that respect. Dr_Alexe dubbed the image: “The first family man,” with amee_ehelamal adding: “Bro didn’t lie when he said ‘family is everything.’ Bro started family.”
Others couldn’t resist coming up with their own spoof 3D reconstructions. One had a suggestion for Eve:

But while plenty of people appeared to be in on the joke, a few seemed slightly confused and even a little bit angry.
2_Plate_Biriyani said: “Rubbish, Adam was said to be of dark complexion. His complexion is said to be similar to the people of Sudan.” Sharaadkuttan, meanwhile, rejected the basic premise commenting: “First human created by God”? There isn’t anything remotely scientific about this phrase.”
Alamo Drafthouse NYC tried to stress the entire thing was a joke, commenting under the tweet: “Just a reminder that we’re a movie theater, not an academic journal.”
Despite this, it seemed some were evidently unaware that the Vin Diesel tweet was part of an ongoing running joke online that has seen a variety of big names given the 3D-rendering treatment.
Earlier this week, a tweet from ColossusNick claimed: “Scientists at Stanford University have reconstructed this 3D model of how Joseph, the husband of Mary the Mother of Jesus Christ might have looked.”

The accompanying image was a bust of wrestling icon and The Princess Bride star André René Roussimoff, a.k.a .Andre the Giant.
Another viral tweet saw singer and actress Lady Gaga get the meme treatment with brotaminz posting a doctored image of the star alongside the claim: “Scientists at Stanford University have reconstructed this 3D model of how Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ might have looked.”
While the exact origins of the meme trend are unclear, they appear to be an attempt at lampooning the 3D renderings of ancient species created by institutions like the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History and celebrity culture.
Newsweek has contacted the Alamo Drafthouse for comment.
