Mr. Logic questions the authenticity of Nigerian actors portraying Ghanaian stories and fears the overshadowing of Ghanaian talent. However, Lil Win defends his decision, citing marketing strategy and the potential to promote Ghana through the film.
“ How can you be producing a movie titled “ A country called Ghana “ to tell Ghanaian stories and the actors are from Nigeria ?
How will Nigerians tell Ghanaian stories ?
Not just one but top 3 actors in the movie are Nigerians , big actors that at the end the Glory will still go to Nigeria
. That is so wrong . This is a film that might get to Netflix , are we going to sit and smile that a movie about our country is acted by Nigerians ? Mr Logic Cries
So Lil Win a Ghanaian movie producer recently brought in Charles Awurum, Victor and Ramsey Noah to Ghana to feature in his film a country called Ghana and many Ghanaians are not happy. They think Ghanaians should be the one telling their stories but then listen
The movie will still be about Ghana and promote the country Ghana
The producer picked this people as a marketing strategy , popular faces sell . If you
Pick some unknown faces as a producer , no one might care about the movie
Everything shouldn’t be about fights abeg.
