I regret a lot for not going to school — Kyeiwaa

Popular Ghanaian Kumahood actress Rose Akua Mensah, affectionately known as Kyeiwaa, has taken to Instagram with a poignant message on the importance of education.

In a heartfelt post, the legendary actress shared her personal regrets for not prioritizing education growing up.

“Don’t joke with education; I regret a lot,” Kyeiwaa wrote along a video aimed at inspiring the younger generation.

In the video, she urged children to take their schooling seriously, warning of the challenges they may face later in life if they don’t. “Today, your parents are asking you to go to school, and you’re refusing. But there will come a time when you’ll regret it. You’ll travel, and reality will hit you—that school is important,” she advised.

Having relocated to the United States, Kyeiwaa used her own experiences to emphasize her message.

She candidly revealed the struggles she faces due to her inability to speak English fluently, describing it as one of the significant obstacles in her new environment.

Her words serve as a reminder of the value of education, not only as a tool for personal growth but also as a means to navigate an increasingly globalized world.

Kyeiwaa, who has earned legendary status in Ghana’s entertainment industry for her iconic roles in Kumawood movies, is now turning her platform into a space for reflection and inspiration.
