Ghanaians and social media were left in shock when news of the disappearance of actor, Dennis Cobblah also known as Swallow hit the internet.
It was reported on Monday, October 12, 2020, that the actor had gone missing after visiting the Sandbox beach at Labadi with his friends for a video shoot.
However, in a surprising turn of events, Scribe Communications has distanced itself from the initial report, saying investigations prove, the entire occurence was a prank.
This update was revealed in a statement signed by Otabil Arthur, Production Manager of Scribe Communications, and copied to GhanaWeb on Friday, October 16, 2020.
In the statement signed by Otabil Arthur, the Production Manager of Scribe Communications, news of Cobblah going missing was brought to the attention of the company on Saturday, October 11, 2020, and they immediately put out a news item on Monday, October 12, 2020, on some media platforms to help find him.
“Fortunately, our brother was said to have been found on Wednesday, October 14, 2020, with unclear details. However, in trying to find out how exactly he got lost and found, we discovered inconsistent stories from his close aides and the supposed victim himself.
“To cut a long story short, he never went missing,” parts of the statement read.
Meanwhile, Swallowtakign to his Twitter page has apologised to his friends and Ghanaians for causing fear and panic. According to him, he only needed some time off for himself.
“I want to say I am deeply sorry to all who have been affected by this, it was never my intention to cause this much fears, but I pray the love shown me when I was away, upon that same love I ask you all to forgive me and debunk all the false stories about my friends” he posted.
