Samuel Safo well-known as Showboy is a Ghanaian socialite who has recently come out to unveil the frustration he went through while he was in jail after being detained for stabbing the late Junior US.
Showboy made this statement in an interview he had with Deloris Frimpong Manso on her show called "The Delay Show" on November 23, 2024, where he showed his deepest regret and feelings of disappointment, and admitted that he even attempted to kill himself.
This is what he said, "When I was sentenced to do fifteen years, I asked my cellmates about the years they were spending inside, and it motivated me a bit. An inmate called me a monkey, and it provoked me to fight him. I was then taken to the bunker. I stayed there for fourteen days without contacting anyone.
The food they gave me was a mess. I had to fall in love with myself because I was thinking of killing myself. My mother didn’t even know I was in prison, but I knew someone might tell her because the news went worldwide. I tore the bedsheet they gave me to form a rope and hang myself. I tried so many times, but I couldn’t do it. I was filled with regret"
Showboy also shared how he remained active on social media during his time in prison and revealed that he had a romantic relationship with a prison officer.
"I had a prison officer who was my girlfriend. One morning, I woke up, and my phone was under my pillow. They had written on it, ‘call this number.’ That was how I was able to come online. But my cellmates beat me and took it from me. That phone cost around $5,000 in prison, I am not kidding. How things cost inside the jail differs from outside"

In 2019 after a confrontation with Junior US in the United States, Showboy was arrested. In his previous interview with Fifii Pratt on Kingdom FM, he explained that Junior US was not his friend and had looked down on him upon their introduction by Criss Waddle.
According to Showboy, the altercation began when Junior US failed to pay back the money he owed but rather offered laptops for sale. The variance led to a violent brawl, where Junior US allegedly attacked him with a knife, leaving him no choice but to retaliate. Showboy acknowledged the fact that he stabbed Junior US during the fight but denied any involvement in his death, which he claimed resulted from a later attack by some women, as reported in the news.
