So when they are successful, don\u2019t look around and say why it didn\u2019t happen to Ghana. GT Bank saw the potential in entertainment. They formed an entertainment wing at Ndani TV and produced their own content.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAccess Bank also saw potential in entertainment, formed Accelerate TV, and created their own content. UBA saw the entertainment opportunity and formed Red TV,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to Amelley Djosu on Joy Prime&#8217;s Celeb Biz, Mawuli Gavor expressed belief that entertainment is a multi-billion dollar sector which can rake in a lot of money into the Ghanaian economy if the right investments were made.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet\u2019s not be na\u00efve, and let\u2019s not pretend not to see the potential that is right in front of us. Entertainment makes huge money. So if you think that these big banks &#8211; GTA, Access Bank, and UBA &#8211; are silly and you\u2019re the only one who knows what you\u2019re doing, no problem. That\u2019s fine. They will continue to thrive, and we will continue to be here making excuses,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The popular actor who has starred in a number of movies such as Just In Time, Devil in the Detail, Sugar Daddy among others expressed lots of optimism in the incredible wealth of talent and was confident the industry will blossom with the right investments.<\/p>\n<h3><strong\/><\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"peace_black_text_4\">Source: Graphiconline<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" style=\"clear:both\">&#13;<\/p>\n<tr>&#13;<\/p>\n<td><span class=\"peace_red_text_1\"><\/span>: <span class=\"peace_ash_text_1\">Opinions expressed here are those of the writers and do not reflect those of .  accepts no responsibility legal or otherwise for their accuracy of content.
