I may not have gotten to where I am if I were tall – Diminutive actor, Yaw Dabo slams those mocking his height

24-year-old diminutive Ghanaian actor, Yaw Gabo, has addressed those who mock him over his height and stature.

Dabo, who lashed out at his critics, said he is probably more successful than those trolling him.

He added that God has a reason for creating him the way he is because he might not have achieved the amazing feats he has achieved today if he were tall.

Dabo said;

“For those who insult me, maybe I am better than you. If I were in your family and I called you to do something for me, you probably would run to get it done. I would probably send you to get chairs if a funeral came home.

“To the person insulting me, should there be a funeral in your house, the wealthiest person will make you carry the coffin. Look, I always say, before you insult someone, you need to look at yourself before rubbishing them.

“Not everything you see with your eyes; you can talk about. This is advice to netizens who sit behind their phones and laptops to talk trash about other people.

“Not everything you see is as it seems. God had a reason for creating me this way, maybe if I were like you, I wouldn’t have gotten to where I am now, but then, since God created me this way, I am better than you.”

Speaking further, Dabo said being a victim of constant mockery and trolling has taught him to watch the way he criticizes other people.

He added;

“I watch my mouth when saying things about other people. The Bible advises that men lock their mouths with padlocks because it could get them in trouble. The mouth can put you in trouble and this may lead you to say something ill about someone and later look for them to apologise but won’t find them.”
