NIGERIA & GHANA MOVIE INDUSTRY ARE SAME- JACKIE APPIAH

Though some stakeholders will disagree with her, a popular Ghanaian actress says she sees no difference between Ghana’s movie industry and that of Nigeria.

Jackie Appiah, who is one of Ghana’s longest serving actresses to have worked in Nollywood, made the claim in the first edition of Nigerian version of UK’s Hello Magazine.

“For me the Ghanaian and Nigerian movie industries are the same, there is no difference. The only thing is that in Nigeria there’s a sense of urgency when getting things done, while in Ghana everyone is more laid back, that’s the only difference. Whenever I’m in Nigeria I’m always hyper but by the time I go to back to Ghana I’m more relaxed and calm,” she said.


The magazine was launched in Lagos last September.
True Tales Publication, publishers of Complete Fashion, Beauty Box and Hints magazines, became the official publisher of the first Sub-Saharan African edition of HOLA!, the brand which owns HELLO!

Fifteen icons in Nigerian music, film, fashion, culture and style, except for Jackie Appiah and Aisha Obuobi from Ghana cover the debut issue.

Jackie Appiah joins the likes of Richard Mofe Damijo, Femi Kuti, 2face Idibia and Mo Abudu to make the cover of the magazine. She told the magazine that she looked ageless because she uses natural products and loves to gym.
