This is how it all happened at the African Regent Hotel in Accra last Friday, an OMG!Ghana.com report.
Nigerian-born Ghanaian-based blogger Chuks Ineh asked Kunle Remi, a Nigerian actor who is among the cast of the new movie “Any Other Monday” if he has a working permit to work in Ghana. Director of the movie, Pascal Amanfo did not want the Nigerian actor to answer but Kunle Remi insisted he had an answer to the question.
Kunle’s answer was that he has been working in South Africa and other parts of the continent without working permit and since Ghana is also an African country, there was no need in getting a permit before working here. Right after his answer, Pascal Amanfo added a lengthy explanation to the actor’s reason saying that the problem which existed between Nigerian and Ghanaian movie makers concerning working permit has been solved and any Ghanaian or Nigerian actor can work in each other’s country without the said permit.
Kafui Danku, producer of the new movie “Any Other Monday” also added that she talked to FIPAG president, Mr. Asare Hackman earlier this year and she was informed that the problem of getting working permit in Ghana or Nigeria before shooting a movie has been solved so any actor can work in Ghana without the permit.
Yvonne Nelson who was not happy about Chuks’ question to the Nigerian actor also had something to say. When allowed to talk, she asked Chuks what his intention for asking the question was. She continued to ask if he asked the question to “corner” the Nigerian actor.
These comments by Yvonne Nelson did not go down well with another Nigerian-born Ghanaian-based journalist Adeyemi Victor who was at the press conference.
Right after Yvonne Nelson’s comments, Adeyemi also took the microphone to question the actress on her comments on the question Chuks asked Kunle Remi.
According to Adeyemi Victor, Chuks Ineh asked the question because it became a topical issue both in Ghana and Nigeria so he sees no reason why Yvonne Nelson should accuse the journalist of asking the question with bad intention. He added that he finds it worrying that Yvonne Nelson got angry over a question which was not directed at her. This word by Victor Adeyemi was the last straw that broke the camel’s back.
