Ghanaian comedian and actor, Kyekyeku took the internet by storm with the announcement of his first ever self-produced movie, 1957.
In a recent episode of Kwadwo Sheldon’s explosive YouTube series, the actor had a lengthy discussion about his rise to fame and upcoming movie.
During the interview, Kyekyeku debated with Kwadwo Sheldon about the relevance of the Ghanaian movie industry.
During the heated debate, Kyekyeku referenced a recent episode on Kwadwo Sheldon’s YouTube platform where he made some demeaning remarks about the Ghanaian movie industry.
While Kwadwo Sheldon defended his take as a needed criticism, Kyekyeku argued that the YouTuber’s overgeneralized remark does Ghana’s film community more harm than good.
After the debate, Sheldon accepted responsibility, apologized for his earlier remark, and agreed to be more calculated, considering the expansive reach of his platform.
The actor says he remains proud of the industry despite its unending challenges. In the interview, he encouraged the government to take charge of its role in providing cinemas, production infrastructure, and funds to assist practitioners.
