Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Actress Akofa Edjeani has urged Ghanaians to embrace the Ghanaian film industry with a positive outlook and a fresh way of thinking for the sake of the nation’s advancement.
In an interview during Ghana Month in March on Joy Prime’s “Prime Morning,” Akofa Edjeani made this plea, emphasizing the necessity to develop the film industry in order to honour the nation and its past.
She issued a challenge to the major players in the business to revive and fortify the Ghanaian film industry and to create motion pictures that would promote Ghana and highlight the country’s skill and potential.
“Talking about Ghana again, we should have our film industry. We should build the film industry. Why did we sell the film hub that we had? We sold it off, and now we don’t have a place. If we’re talking about Ghana, we should bring the things that will benefit Ghana,” she stated.
Additionally, Akofa stated that Ghanaians should refocus their thinking and take pride in their culture and identity, adding that simply wearing goods created in Ghana was insufficient to appreciate the nation’s distinctiveness.
“If we’re celebrating Ghana, it’s not just enough to be wearing the beads and the Ghanaian clothes. We have to reorient our minds. You can be wearing them and still not Ghanaian or African enough in your mind. So, we need to reorient our minds, and we should know that we have only one Ghana, and we need to build it up,” she said.
