With the hopes of contributing to the Education Transformation Agenda, I was paid a courtesy call on Wednesday, 12th April 2023 by members of the film industry.
The delegation led by renowned actor Akwasi Boadi, popularly known as Akrobeto, also included Okyeame Kwame, Koo Ofori, Samuel Nyamekye of Miracle Films, Director Jones, as well as Mikky Berko, who joined by Zoom.
The group expressed their willingness to contribute to the development of the education sector through films and promised to produce films that not only entertain but also educate the masses on various societal issues.
I highlighted the importance of using films as a tool for education and urged the film producers to ensure that the films they produce will tell the untold stories of Ghana and inspire greatness in children.
I believe with a collaborative effort between the movie industry and the education sector, we will transform and raise the nation through films.
