Edem says Agbeko has finally accepted help after previously rejecting rehabilitation support

Ghanaian rapper and VRMG boss Edem has announced that musician Agbeko has finally agreed to enter rehabilitation after previously rejecting support offered to him.

In a post shared this week, Edem revealed that Agbeko personally contacted him and indicated his readiness to seek professional help.

This update comes just days after Edem disclosed that the artiste had initially declined assistance when arrangements were made to enroll him in a rehabilitation programme.

According to Edem, the moment Agbeko showed willingness to cooperate, he and his team acted quickly to get him the help he needed. He wrote:

“It’s with great joy that I announce to all well-wishers and family. Agbeko reached out within the week and expressed his willingness to get help to get better. Myself and the team at VRMG facilitated him going to Pantang for rehabilitation and pledge to cover all costs around his duration of stay.”

Edem explained that this development is critical not only for Agbeko’s health and stability but also for his journey back as an artiste. He expressed appreciation to those who have shown concern over Agbeko’s struggles in recent weeks.

The rapper also used the moment to caution the public about the dangers of substance abuse, stressing: “To all my fans and family — Don’t do DRUGS.”

Agbeko’s situation drew renewed attention after recent interviews in which he accused Edem of contributing to his career setbacks, even claiming Edem once said he would “end his career”. Edem responded by clarifying events and revealing that he had in fact attempted to support Agbeko by sponsoring his rehabilitation, an offer the musician initially refused.

With Agbeko now accepting help, many fans are hopeful this marks the beginning of a positive turnaround. Industry players have also praised Edem for showing leadership and compassion in supporting a colleague despite past disagreements.

As Agbeko begins rehabilitation at Pantang, Edem and the VRMG team say they remain fully committed to providing both financial and emotional support throughout the process, with the hope of seeing the artiste recover and rebuild.
