Technology has made our industry better - Fred Amugi



Former president of Actors Guild, Fred Amugi on the Celebrity night show with Eddy Blay Junior has stated that  the work of D.P.O’s and Director’s have been made easy by the introduction of modern technology

Fred Amugi asserted that there has been a great improvement in the Ghanaian movie industry due to technological advancement.

The veteran actor revealed that, before he plays a role in any movie, he seeks for professional advice. During his reign as the president of Actors Guild bridging the gap between the glamour and Kumawood actors was one of his greatest achievements  

“I had the chance to break the rivalry between the local language speaking actors and the English speaking actors by forming a guild in Kumasi for the local actors who mostly work with Kofi Nyametse when I was the Actors Guild president”, he said.

According to him, he has witnessed at a conference where the Israeli president complained about a similar issue, where English speaking actors refuse to merge with the local language speaking actors in Israel.

He also stated that, due to lack of good technical know-how in the industry, David Dontoh  terms the vernacular movies as “Tomatoes movies” because they don’t last long to meet consumers demand, he explained.

He then added that, the fortunate thing in the industry is that age doesn’t matter; even if one is a clot of blood in the womb of a woman there is an opportunity to play a role in the movie.

Here we will try to find out whether William Kumuyi has his own luxurious vessel or not. This would be interesting. Famous Pastors like Ayo Oritsejafor, Bishop David Oyedepo, Enoch Adeboye and Pastor T.B. Joshua are Nigerian pastors that have already been reported to have private jets. Various arguments have been put forward for and against the issue of procurement of a N4 billion aircraft by the General Superintendent of the Deeper Life church. Recently Pastor Kumuyi was called one of the 500 most influential people on the planet apparently owing to his reach in Christendom via his mega church. Pastor Kumuyi is arguably a bigger preacher and pastor than most of the jet-setting pastors, but it is not clear yet if he owns one. What is certain is that he lives a little below the radar...
