Ghanaian actress Gloria Sarfo has voiced her disappointment with certain actors in the Ghana movie industry, following events surrounding the recent Africa Movie Academy Awards (AMAA).
In a live social media video on November 4, 2024, with fellow actress Fella Makafui, Gloria Sarfo expressed concerns over a lack of unity in the industry.
“The Ghana movie industry is full of hypocrites, and I don’t understand. If you talk about this, some people will drag you on social media and start name-calling,” she said.
“This is embarrassing, and it’s about time we stop licking the foot of these people,” she added.
Fella Makafui also shared her disappointment during the live video.
“This is a total disappointment, and we would not lick the feet of anybody. If they like, they should feature us in their movies; they can even take their awards. We are tired of these people,” she added.
Background
The 2024 edition of the AMAA ceremony took place in Lagos, Nigeria, where several Ghanaian actors, including Abdul Salam Mumuni, Akorfa Edjeani Aseidu, Gloria Sarfo, Julia Apea, and Jackie Appiah, were nominated in prominent categories and invited to attend.
According to Gloria Sarfo, the event organizers failed to communicate effectively, leaving them stranded at Kotoka International Airport. Attempts to reach the organizers for updates reportedly went unanswered.
Meanwhile, Joselyn Dumas served as a host at the event.
