Kofi Jamaican me- WTF!

[THE Renegade Diesel]

In a recent interview with the BBC in the United Kingdom, Kofi Kingston's mother Elizabeth, who is the head of a Ghanaian-American organisation in the US revealed that Kofi is not really Jamaican.

His mother confirmed that he’s real name is Kofi Sarkodie-Mensah and was indeed born in Ghana, not in Jamaica. She said, "I told him: 'Kofi, your cousins watch you on TV in Ghana and want to know why you don't say you're from Ghana,'" "He said: 'Tell them it is business.'"

Kofi Kingston told the BBC, "I was actually born in Jamaica - to be honest with a name like Kofi a lot of people assume I was born in Ghana." The interviewer noted that he spoke in a “bad Jamaican accent, but doing his best to stay in character.”

He goes on to say, "She's very happy I am doing what I want to do," regarding his mother and added, "But I don't think she knows how big wrestling really is."

I feel bad for Kofi, he's trying to make a living, and his mom doesn't seem to understand how things work as it relates to kayfabe or whatnot.

Still, if he was billed from Ghana, we'd be hearing Adamle say stuff like this... You Ghana make me crazy, Kofi!

haha, I love how he banned his family from speaking to the media because they revealed his actual identity. Its not like he is the only one in the business that has a different nationality on TV.
