But
another award winning Ghanaian actress Lydia Forson says she sees nothing wrong
with the nudity in Ghanaian movies.
She
is of the view that Ghanaians patronize worst pornographic movies of foreign
origin than what people call Ghanaian pornography John Dumelo says it is the
responsibility of movie makers to ensure that any acts and scenes that contain
nudity and obscurity are edited out of the movies before they are released for
public viewing.
There
have been concerns about the recent influx of nude movies on the Ghanaian
markets with the actors and producers taking a chunk of the blame.
They
have been accused of promoting nudity in the Ghanaian movies whiles others have
described the practice as an affront to Ghana’s rich cultural heritage.
Speaking to Adom News, John Dumelo stated that though actors and actresses have
contributed to the promotion of nudity in Ghanaian movies, the onus lies on the
movie makers who are to ensure that extreme nude scenes are edited before the
movies are brought to the market.
He
conceded to the fact that the nudity in Ghanaian movies is becoming too much
and called for an immediate end to it.
He
intimidated there have been occasions that he has appealed to producers to edit
some nude scenes he played which the producers agreed, only for him to see the
unedited versions being sold on the market.
He
tells Adom News that he sometimes feel bad when he sees some of the extreme
nude scenes he featured in but added that, once the movie is out nothing can be
done about it.
The
Ghanaian superstar has advocated the need for more collaboration between them
and other African countries, apart from the usual collaboration with their
Nigerian counterparts to strengthen the movie industry in Africa.
