Kumawood actor, Kwadwo Nkansah LilWin, has strongly criticized some of his colleagues who are belittling his hard work, including popular actress Martha Ankomah.
The actor launched a fierce attack on Ankomah, specifically targeting some “unpleasant” comments she made about Kumawood movies in recent years.
During an interview with HitzFm in 2017 and later with Accra FM in 2023, Martha undermined the storylines of recent Kumawood movies, comparing them unfavourably to the Agya Koo era.
“I love their story lines and they used to have really good movies like Kumasi Y)nko), but of late, most of their movies portray witchcraft and that does not motivate me to shoot with them,” Martha stated in her interview with HitzFM.
In response to these remarks, LilWin expressed his disappointment and frustration, emphasizing the effort and dedication that goes into creating Kumawood movies.
He highlighted the importance of supporting and uplifting one another within the industry, rather than tearing each other down.
However, the topic surrounding Martha Ankomah’s statements popped up while LilWin was slamming Dr. Likee’s camp after one of his actresses defected to the stables of Akabenezer.
The said actress, Mimi, has recently been granting interviews throwing jabs at LilWin, who has in turn resorted to attacking anyone who has ever downplayed his efforts including Martha Ankomah.
“Martha, those who are richer than you are rather humble and respect themselves a lot. Do you honestly call yourself a star? Who knows you? What do you have?
“I don’t even know why GTP bypassed the likes of McBrown, Mercy Asiedu and co, and made Martha Ankomah their brand ambassador. The likes of Van Vicker, Roselyn Ngissah and co, do not do these things. They even work with us. They shoot Kumawood movies. I’m still amazed that you made such statements, were you drunk?
He continued, “Patience Ozorkwor came to Kumasi to shoot a movie. Aki and Pawpaw, Mr. Ibu and the rest came down to shoot a movie here. But for people like you, who call yourselves refined actors; how many times do these Nigerians come to Ghana to shoot movies? They are the ones who rather send for you guys.”
