Ghanaian actress and film producer Selassie Ibrahim during a radio program has said that Ghanaians prefer watching Nigerian movies instead of Ghana, that when you go to Nigeria, you don't find them watching any Ghanaian movie, this has generated heated reactions on social media

Ghanaian should accept the fact that they will be forever behind Nigeria in entertainment and everything.

Ghanains are obsessed with Nigerians...


They love to spread false facts about Nigerians. Without taking into consideration or giving kudos to the help, role,or the part that Nigerians play in their entertainment industry generally.

Nigeria is one of the markets that embraces and accepts everything without bias.


If it's good. Nigerians would accept and play it without consideration for where it's coming from. Nigerians accept things from outside almost to a fault. Same cannot be said of the same people that like to sit down back and criticize all the time. They always like to shift blames. Nigeria or the success of Nollywood or the entertainment industry in Nigeria generally isn't the reason for the failure of the Ghanian entertainment industry.

Someone should help me ask this Ibrahim sellasie if Ghanians themselves accept and watch their own movies? Why are they not watching their own movies which most of them are low budget with weak story lines but expect Nigerians to watch them.

Ghanains watch Nigerian movies because it's more entertaining to them especially compared to their own movies and not because they want to deliberately support Nigeria movie industry or entertainment generally.

These Ghanians can really be annoying and unnecessarily competitive and petty sometimes!

Because what Ghollywood stand for are mostly seductive movies without good headings. And they don't have any Actor except the actor turned pastor of a guy.

Nigerians don't reject or refuse to watch Ghanaian movies. Nigerians will watch anything that appeals to them. This is a dog whistle against Nigeria. She can do better.

That's how they start growing their own brand...

Same thing Reno Omokri has been trying to say for a long time now...

Buy the local fabric, use glomobile, buy innoson motors, etc

Prioritize Nigeria

Charlie,

Why should we in Nigeria watch a bunch of "Nigerian wannabes?"
Ghanians that struggle to sound Nigerian, act Nigerian, be Nigerian, and talk Nigerian.

They even overestimate themselves as our "RIVALS."

They don't know that we only remember the word "Ghana" when things are not working in Nigeria and we want to yab our leaders.

No vex, we are still the big brother. So we should let you people corrupt the remaining of our children with that Una nude film you called Ghallywood ABI.

Me in Nigeria like watching Hollywood movies, when you go to America how many of them watch our movies. It’s usual the horse before the cart.

I watched it on AIT too and it is still my favourite Ghana Soap Opera till today. I have searched on YouTube for the old episodes but I keep seeing snippets of the spin off and I don't like spin off of movies.

Funny enough, Inspector Bediako is a remake of Sledge Hammer. Did you watch the American series called Sledge Hammer? The lead actor's catchphrase is "Trust me I know what I am doing."

Lemme troll my Ghanaian brothers:

There we go again…..

Ghanians with their inferiority complex mentality. No country in the world dance to the Azonto’s song by ODG a Ghanian then than Nigerians. Even Awilo Logomba clearly expressed his feelings on how Nigerian listeners catapulted his acceptance globally.

If you do good music or film, we will watch but you can force your things on us just because they are from Ghana.

There was a time that Ghanaian movies are preferred in Nigeria but since you people refused to invest in your movie industry,you were only cashing out from Nigerian viewers and not Bollywood has taken over
Re: When You Go To Nigeria, You Don't Find Them Watching Any Ghanaian Movie-selassie by SmartPolician:
Ghanians think that making real movies is about showing nudity in their movies. Many of them acted in Nigeria, but learnt nothing. Those folks have a long way to go.

They should do what we did in 2004 bro!

60% of aired content should be local.
