Veteran Ghanaian actor, Kofi Adjorlolo, has angrily chastised movie producers in the country for not paying him anytime he cast in their production.
According to the Actor, many of the Ghanaian producers lack the requisite attitude to properly manage both top class and upcoming performers.
In an interview monitored by GhanaWeb, Mr Adjorlolo indicated that after he finished starring in productions, these movie productions do not bother of paying him.
“Some of the producers in Ghana here, they should respect themselves…old man like me, they call me to come and work and they can’t pay me…”
“About seven producers in this country they owe me monies…why? And then I’m sitting at home, I’m hungry, and then when I’m sick too nobody pays attention…Look we have elderly people lying down on their sickbeds and these producers owe them,” Mr Adjorlolo revealed.
‘Frustrated’ Adjorlolo noted that these seven producers are the ones people refer to them as ‘big producers’.
“The whole actors in Ghana here know what I’m talking about, producers don’t pay, the producers owe actors!” he stressed.
Kofi Adjorlolo further explained that he left his over 17-years broadcasting career just into acting and ever since he became an actor, he has been taken him for a ride by the producers.
He said the assertion that he is worth eight hundred thousand dollars ($800,000) is untrue.
“…Me! Me! eight hundred what…?” he quizzed.
