Nana Ama McBrown Praises Lilwin For Investing Personal Millions To Revive Ghanaian Cinema

Renowned Ghanaian actress and media personality Nana Ama McBrown has publicly applauded Kumawood star Kwadwo Nkansah, widely known as Lilwin, for pouring his personal fortune into keeping Ghana’s film industry alive. Amid persistent funding shortages, declining cinema attendance, and stiff competition from foreign productions, McBrown singled out Lilwin as a rare figure taking decisive financial action rather than merely lamenting industry struggles.

Speaking on the state of local filmmaking, McBrown commended Lilwin for financing ambitious productions out of pocket—a commitment that covers costly set construction, professional crews, and modern equipment. Beyond elevating production quality, she noted that his investments have generated vital employment opportunities and created a platform for emerging actors.

“He is spending big money from his own pocket. He deserves to be celebrated,” McBrown stated, emphasizing that risking personal wealth in a struggling market reflects genuine passion rather than mere profit-seeking.

In a strong show of solidarity, McBrown pledged her unconditional support to the actor, promising to avail herself whenever he needs assistance—whether stepping into acting roles, promoting his films, or attending his premiere events. She stressed that established stars must actively pool their influence, time, and resources to uplift colleagues driving real industry growth.

Her remarks have resonated strongly with entertainment enthusiasts, many of whom credit Lilwin’s relentless output and creative concepts, including his popular village-themed projects, with sustaining Kumawood’s visibility. Ultimately, McBrown’s endorsement serves as a rallying cry for unity and mutual backing across Ghana’s creative sector.
