– –<\/span> As Ghanaian movie fanatics and players of the industry look forward with anticipation to this year\u2019s Ghana Movie Awards, one actor has raised the red flag about the event.<\/p>\n His name is Kobina Amissah-Sam and according to him no serious actor or actress will continue attending the Ghana Movie Awards because it has lost its credibility and the manner at which they organise the show.<\/p>\n In a post he made on social media, Kobina described the scheme as a scam the organisers clueless who don\u2019t even give plaques to deserving winners.<\/p>\n – –<\/span> His full post reads:<\/p>\n I\u2019m really surprised some Actors and Actresses who ought to know better and fight for the betterment of this Ghana movie industry are still interested in going to this year\u2019s @ghanamovieawards1.. An awards scheme that has different account for every year.. An awards scheme that couldn\u2019t even publish list of winners of the previous awards after 48hrs of the show\u2026 An awards scheme which up till now still take the awards from you from backstage and present to another winner.. An awards scheme which is yet to present the statuettes \u201cBeast of No Nation\u201d and other movies won some five years ago. An award scheme that actors are \u201cforced\u201d to perform as though they are musicians just so they can win awards.. Need I say more?\u2026 In fact I challenge last year\u2019s winners to show me the statuettes they took home as awards winners. Just imagine the disgrace of awarding Idris Alba and the Director Carry Fugunaga and some 5 years down the line they still haven\u2019t received their awards\u2026 And we support this?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We are not serious\u2026 Mawuko Kuadzi started a campaign for a boycott but as usual people didn\u2019t support because they\u2019ve spent money to buy \u201cexpensive\u201d clothes to go and slay for the \u2018gram\u2026 Is that all we care about as actors?\u2026 Can\u2019t we see how disrespectful this awards is to we actors? \u2026 We deserve better. Let\u2019s just boycott this \u201cscam\u201d of an awards and ask for a better one\u2026 And with this I expect the \u2018A\u2019 Class actors and actresses to be championing this boycott agenda.. We the young actors look up to you guys for such fights.. Fights that will help build and make our industry better.. Fight that will prevent people from taking us for granted..<\/p>\n YES\u2026 I\u2019m an Actor\u2026 I featured in \u201cBeast of No Nation\u201d and I\u2019m pissed we still haven\u2019t gotten our awards since like 5-6 years ago.<\/p>\n LET\u2019S SPEAK UP\u2026<\/p>\n Let me just end here for now\u2026 I will be back\u2026 Peace\n<\/p>\n – –<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
