You Don’t Have Sense- Lilwin Descends On Martha Ankomah For Allegedly Rubbishing Kumawood
Lilwin has recently recorded a video of himself expressing his anger towards actress Martha Ankomah. The reason behind his frustration was Martha’s alleged derogatory comments about Kumawood movies.
It is reported that Martha Ankomah declined an offer to be a part of a Kumawood project, stating that their storylines were terrible and their productions were inferior.
Lilwin, who is often seen as the face of Kumawood, strongly criticized Martha Ankomah for her remarks. He believed that instead of using foul language, Martha Ankomah could have simply declined the offer or asked for an exorbitant fee that would make it impossible for the producer to afford her.
In a heated tone, Lilwin expressed his disappointment, stating that Martha Ankomah had lost her relevance and was only making such comments to stay in the limelight.
He reminded her that A-list actresses like Van Vicker and Yvonne Nelson had previously worked in Kumawood, emphasizing that Martha was nobody compared to them.
In related news, during an appearance on Accra 100.5 FM’s mid-morning program, actress and filmmaker Martha Ankomah shed light on her absence from the big screens.
Ankomah revealed that she has been turning down movie offers due to their lack of substance and suitability for her brand. As a result, she has not been featured in any recent film projects.
When the interviewer asked why she had not been in the mainstream for a while now, the actress responded by saying,
“I’ve rejected a lot of roles. Basically, I look at the storyline, the script. If I read the script and there’s no sense in it, I will not join the cast. There are movies which go about in circles and appear aimless. You find no sound advice in it. It’s not something the youth can learn productive things from. So any movie without a good moral lesson, I reject. Another example is a script which contains scenes like “a man who sleeps with women and kills them,” she cited. “What is the viewer taking aware from such a movie, how to kill multiple women?”
According to Martha Ankoma, she recently rejected a role in a Nigerian movie. “I was bold enough to tell the person who sent the script that the story doesn’t make sense. I was straightforward, and I have said that to many producers also,” she said. She indicated Peter Richie – seated next to her – is her witness.
