I don&#8217;t want to\u00a0have problems with anybody.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I don&#8217;t want anybody\u00a0to hold grudge\u00a0with me. Producers and\u00a0Ghana Movie Awards\u00a0organisers should sit\u00a0and see how best they\u00a0can make things up.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s all I can\u00a0say,&#8217; she said.<br \/>&#8216;Also it&#8217;s a\u00a0good thing we\u00a0live in peace and\u00a0everyone will benefit\u00a0in this industry. After\u00a0all if movies are submitted\u00a0it benefits us\u00a0actors too. That&#8217;s how\u00a0we get appreciated,&#8217;\u00a0she added.<\/p>\n<p>By Francis Addo<br \/>(Twitter: @fdee50 Email:\u00a0fdee500@yahoo.com)<\/p>\n<div style=\"font-size:12px;clear:both;margin-bottom:5px\">\n<div style=\"padding:5px;background-color: #eee;\"><b>Comments:<\/b><br \/>This article has <b>0<\/b> comment,  leave your comment.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&#13;\n\t\t\t    \t<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; Actress Kisa Gbekle has declined\u00a0all efforts to get her involved in the\u00a0ongoing scuffle among members &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-243972","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2015\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/243972","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2015\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2015\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2015\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=243972"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2015\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/243972\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2015\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=243972"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2015\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=243972"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2015\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=243972"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
