Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Ghanaian actor and NPP member, Prince David Osei has denied accusations that his entry into politics is because his acting career is over.
During an interview on GHOne TV, Prince David Osei referred to individuals making those allegations as ‘jokes’.
He mentioned being actively involved in filming and having multiple upcoming projects in the works.
“I have been filming outside Ghana. My recent movie, Letter to Goddo, has been nominated for the Toronto Film Festival… So, if somebody tells me I’m doing politics because my career is dead, then that person is a joke,” he said.
Prince David Osei explained that he appears in more Nigerian movies than Ghanaian movies because Ghanaian producers are unable to afford him.
“Sometimes over here, they can’t pay me. When I mention my price, they can’t pay. And sometimes I do favors for some of the directors I know. But mostly, you know, they can’t pay,” he added.
Prince David Osei reaffirmed his backing for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), emphasizing that his support was based on his own decision and not influenced by financial gain.
“People also have the perception that maybe it’s money. No. You can’t judge everybody and how they live. I’m not doing it for money or recognition or whatever. Nobody has given me any money for politics,” he said.
