AN AIRLINE REFUSED TO GIVE US A PLANE AFTER CHARGING $5,000 – LilWin Reveals Struggles Faced By Entertainment Industry

Kwadwo Nkansah, better known by his stage name Lil Win, is a Ghanaian actor and producer who has opened out about the difficulties that industry actors have in finding suitable sites for their productions.

Lil Win explained in an interview with Zion Felix how after paying a $5,000 charge, an airline refused to let his production team utilize an airplane for a movie shoot.

“Let’s say you need the airport for a project. You will send letters and everything, but you will never be granted access. And when you are denied access and you compromise to shoot the movie, you will bitterly be criticized for not using the airport scene as it needed to be.”

“The reason why we were unable to feature the airport is that we even wanted to use an actual plane in the movie, and we were willing to pay. A fee of $3,000 was quoted for Kumasi and $5,000 for Accra. We were willing to pay, but the airline refused,” he shared.

According to the award-winning actor, movie producers are unfairly criticized for producing mediocre content, while they are compelled to improvise.

“I don’t understand it when the movie comes out and they criticize us that it is not nice. If we were given access to the plane, we would have landed it nicely in the movie. But we don’t get it; you want a police station for a shoot, you won’t be given; military uniform, you will not get it; you request access to a hospital for a shoot, and you are equally denied. Meanwhile, the story requires that you feature the hospital, airport, or police station to complete the story,” he bemoaned.

He continued by saying that because Nigeria has a more accommodating and helpful business, the situation there is different. Even worse, he underlined, Ghanaian producers are refused entry even when they are eager to pay.
