Ghanaian celebrities have come under fire from event promoter and actor, George Quaye for their apathetic and complacent response to actions that endanger their reputation and way of life.
In an interview with Daybreak Hitz, he expressed his dissatisfaction, saying that these superstars do not succeed in discouraging imposters from utilizing their status to generate money.
He added that these superstars appear careless and sluggish when it comes to protecting their reputation and earnings.
“I think Ghanaian artists are lazy when it comes to some things. They are lazy when it comes to things that destroy their brands or take food out of their mouths.
“We were in this country when the FDA told Ghanaian alcoholic beverage brands to go to Nigeria.”
He continued: “We saw it happen; brands from here went to Nigeria to get actors to advertise and they came here to play them for us. Then the Gaming Commission came with a law to ban them from promoting gaming and these artists were still quiet.”
George Quaye further emphasized that Ghanaian celebrities lack initiative and show little concern for the world around them. He anticipated that they would continue to be silent even if the Ghana Water Company forbade them from using tap water.
“Very soon, Ghana Water Company will tell them if they turn on their taps they will be banned and they will be quiet. They don’t care. Ghanaian celebrities never step up when it is really important,” he noted.
