According to the popular actor and comedian, although he told some Kumawood Movie Producers and Directors about this condition, they didn’t believe him.
He indicated that they rather thought he was being arrogant.
Agya Koo, who is known legally as Alex Kofi Adu, said the producers and directors claimed his uppity arose because he thought he had no competitor in the industry.
“I stopped shooting night scenes in movies because I was going blind. The light used to shoot night scenes was affecting my eyes and it gave me some eye problems.
“I told the producers what I was going through. And implored them to remove night scenes from my scenes to help protect my eyes.”
He made this revelation in an interview with Ike De Unpredictable on Kumasi-based Angel Fm's Entertainment show.
In recent times, Agya Koo has been heard on numerous platforms talking about a group of Kumawood producers, directors and actors who orchestrated his elimination from the industry.
Responding to the comments by Agya Koo on the same show, the Public Relations Officer (PRO) for the Film Producers Association of Ghana (FIPAG), Mawule Ekpe Peter, known popularly as Abro, challenged Agya Koo to name the producers who met to plot his undoing.
He added that Agya Koo’s perception is not factual as any such meeting was held.
He continued that the Kumawood Movie Industry and its producers “still need Agya Koo back.”
He said he “will be very happy if Agya Koo will be bold enough to name the producers who plotted against him.”
With the future in mind, Abro indicated that it’s high time this longstanding issue is solved to help rebuild Ghana’s wobbling movie industry. Read More...
