Hilarious comedy “Ghana Must Go” is directed by multiple award-winning filmmaker, Frank Rajah Arase and stars Nkem Owoh (aka Osuofia), Yvonne Okoro, Kofi Adjorlolo, Blossom Chukwujekwu, Ik Ogbonna,Helen Paul and Ada Ameh.

The plot is set in city of Accra, Ghana with the story revolving around two young lovers who are of Nigerian and Ghanaian descent. Ama (Yvonne Okoro), is a London-based Ghanaian lady who brings her Nigerian boyfriend, Chuks (Blossom Chukwujekwu), home to meet her parents much to the chagrin of her father.

Not surprisingly her parents refuse to support to their relationship, owing to past events involving the neighboring countries.
This movie is a romantic comedy that gives viewers a unique plot. It tries to tell an important part of Nigerian history at the same time fusing comedy and romance.

It also focuses on a relatable issue that many young people are faced with; dealing with their parents’ choice of which tribe or religion to marry from. That is the main theme of the movie “Ghana Must Go.”
However, this movie seems to fuel the stereotype of making a ‘village girl’ seem like a halfwit as they did that with Helen Paul’s character.

The most wonderful part of the movie is definitely scenes with Nkem Owoh and Kofi Adjorlolo, who are bursting with so much humor and are charming with their talent. They make some of the scenes funny, and are genuinely funnier than most other actors.
The same cannot be said about Ik Ogbonna’s interpretation of his character. Even though he does manage to bring about some few funny and scenes, he seems to try so hard to be funny, and ends up over doing his part.

Helen Paul was definitely the Debbie Downer of this movie with here depressing role which was not funny at all, and had no significance to the plot.

There’s not much Chemistry to feel between Blossom Chukwujekwu and Yvonne Okoro’s characters, however they complemented each other and manage to give us some good moments. The two wonderful actors did a good job of implementing their characters, enough to capture the heart of viewers.

Finally, “Ghana Must Go” scores 70 percent, and will totally be worth your time and money.
