God Save Us: Nigerian Director Calls Ghanaian Actress A Devil

Whether we like it or not the unfortunate relationship between Ghana and Nigeria has come to stay. Whiles major stakeholders in the Ghanaian and Nigerian Movie Industries try so hard to let the relationship between the two countries grow and flourish, other quarters are making sure the above does not t materialize for their own selfish gains.

Thanks to Ecowas, both countries have invaded each other to derive and tap into the rich experience of professionals from both sides.

Information reaching GhanaCelebrities.com has it that the working relationship between Mr. Ifeanyi Onyeabor (Mr. Hollywood) the celebrated Nigerian movie director and Khareema Aguiar has gone sour.

According to the actress who played Jessica in Shirley Frimpong Manso’s ‘Check Mate’, the Nigerian director called her a devil without any cause. The actress promises not to go back to location again until the director has apologized to her.

Calm Khareema, who is on location shooting a movie with the working title ‘Shadow In My Back’ with the character name ‘Shaviva’ in a phone conversation with GhanaCelebrities.com narrated what transpired before she was labeled as a devil.

“We are lodged in a hotel at Dzorwulu and we are normally called as early as 5:30am to be ready for location”.
“On Wednesday, the call came earlier than expected with the information that we will be shooting somewhere in Sahara, Dansoman” she pointed out.

In a company of another actress Kafui, they started the journey from Dzorwulu to Dansoman. They got to the said location and waited for hours without the production crew showing up.

“With Kafui, a colleague actress on the steering wheel, we started the journey. We got to Sahara and waited for only God knows how many hours without any sign of them showing up”.

Khareema who is playing the leading role in the movie then asked Kafui to call the production manager who goes by the name Zoree. They were told the shooting has been changed from Dansoman to Sakumono. According to Khareema, she didn’t call the production manager herself because they had a misunderstanding over food, so they were not on talking terms.

“I had a problem with the production manager, so we don’t talk that much so I asked Kafui to call him, only to be told of the change of location and yet nobody cared enough to call to tell us” Khareema narrated.
When they finally got to Sakumono, Ifeanyi Onyeabor who has been known as nonsense got furious and started ruining insults on her. Khareema tried as hard as she can to explain what caused their delay but to no avail.

“Ifeanyi Onyeabor started screaming, yelling and insulting me, even though it was not my fault. I told him it’s not my fault but he said he won’t blame anyone but me. He said you are a devil, Jackie Appiah and Nadia Buari will not do this on set”.

The actress fought back “That’s why I am not Jackie or Nadia and moreover I didn’t come begging for the role”.

However, after several exchanges, Khareema asked him if he just called her a devil and Ifeanyi Onyeabor repeated in an affirmative. The actress has since decided not to be part of the production.
Khareema is one of the up coming actresses in Ghana. She played Angela in the ‘All That Glitters’ series which was shown in Ghana, Jamaica, the United Kingdom and Nigeria.

The actress has worked as a news reader and entertainment presenter at Happy FM and Hitz FM respectively.

    • @nana, well i suggest u guys also tell ur producers to also get mad because nollywood has just issued out its own fine and guess what it is double compared to that of the ghanaians.Speaking of the article i finf it difficult to beleive that a full grown man will wake up one day create confusion by giving wrong locations to his cast, and when they cast finally find there way to where he is, he ignores the nigerians then decides to lay insults on an actress simply because she is ghanaian, i think there is more to this which hasn’t been said, and of course u ghanaians don’t care to know because u love every possible opportunity to lash out at nigerian just like u guys did in the other fabricated article(which u can clearly tell it was fabricated) that said someting about majid not acting in nigeria anymore.

    • @nana, don’t forget this same director has worked with akofa,vivian anchor,eckow blackson and many more other ghanaian actors and actresses without problem.

        • @lily, while we dwell on the history of film making in west Africa, what do you think of the fact that internationally/critically acclaimed films are produced in South Africa?

          It cul to be proud of the facts you have stated but its like fighting over scraps to be honest, when will Ghana have its own TSOTSI or its own SARAFINA or its own DISTRICT 9.

          It seems to me we keep going backwards by forever competing with Naija when we should compete with Hollywood a more worthy opponent.

          Reply
      • @nanayaa, let me answer your question,featuring someone in movies makes them popular because the get to be seen by a wider audience which the weren’t exposed to before.Now let me list the areas nollywood has helped the ghanaian movie industry,exposure,directing,producing,screenplay,story,score,dop,marketing,and distribution, now have i spilled it for you.

        • @flint, ooooooh ok i see thanks flint u have said it oo..aah ha now i see why ghanaian movie industry is still on square one wen we r suppose to be competing with the big dogs like hollywood and bollywood. if our so-called teachers(helpers) are still on square one how the hell are we going to progress..but its all gud we picking up gradually by ourselves..i know we will get there with the likes of shirley, akofa, leila and rest who are doing it by themselves(emphasis on themselves)we thank the nja’s for their help but we won’t be needing it anymore..i think y’all need it the most..i remember the time i used to be crazy about nja movies..those days are gone..i don’t recall the last time I watched a 9ja movie..i think y’all murder us than helped us..now we need help from hollywood and bollywood cuz wit dem we can only wish for the best..but one question thou…what are the names of our stars nollywood made popular? and some of the movies that made them popular? hope u seen our movies lately, take those soft porn, that thg they called movie out..can any 9ja movie compare to the likes of “life and living it, scorned, the perfect picture, a sting in a tale, checkmate, i sing of well, love brew in an african pot, heritage africa and the list goes on and on..most of these movies i mentioned got international recognition or won an award..and guess what, it was all than by ghanaian cast, producers, directers, etc..we have proved on many levels that we stand on our own we will excel with all without ur help…all that list u made but still ur movie industry make quantity movies that lacks quality(3rd largest wow)…thanks flint hope we can agree on some level without any insults.lol

      • @nanayaa, i will carefully elaborate myself and then take u to the big picture.Ok i know nollywood has done a lot of crappy movies, but we have also done good movies aswell, i can confortablely name some nollywood movies that can hold its own against hollywood bluckbusters, every movie industry is guilty when it comes to dat, bollywood that u keep praising does a lot of mediocre movies but the also do good movies, even hollywood does too but u don’t get to see those ones, u only see the hit blockbusters, do u know that there are still some american movies made on digital cameras, yes there are but u don’tget to see them( hang on there i will soon make my point), now hollywood and bollywood did not just start making hit movies like titanic,avatar,three idiotes,ghajini etc overnight(rome was not built in a day), please go back to the early hollywood movies and see what mediocrity actually is(now this is the picture and my point) since our influence still have ur movie industry on square one why haven’t ur industry been able to grow it to a higher level from the head start nollywood gave them,on a more serious note, why didn’t the likes of ur shirley,akofa,and leila come to develop ur movie indsutry before nollywood did, do u know why the south african movie ondustry are still living in the shadows of hollywood without knowing there left or right,well it is because they decided to walk without crawling,they wanted to be like hollywood while forgeting that hollywood started from somewhere and built from there which is exactly what nollywood is doing and trust me is just a matter of time before nollywood exploseds and go global,that the ghanaian movie industry is being noticed is becaused is being tagged along with nollywood, most people confuse ghanaian movies for nigerian movies.The above reason i gave about the south african movie industry is why the haven’t been able to grow much even with the quality movie that they do, this has led some palyers in the industry decide to copy the nollywood model, u can read all about it here http://www.clickafrique.com/Magazine/ST010/CP0000002523.aspx, u see u start from somewhere and build from there which is the same thing that hollywood and bollywood did.Now to ur queston, yes i can name nigerian movies that are not only better but will outshine the list of movies u have, infact i will not just name them but i will give u ten of them, here is the list, the amazing grace,the figurine,ije,arugba,tango with me,laviva,inale,black gold,ezra,and unbreakable nation(which has a 10 million dollars budget)some of these movies are yet to be released but all of them have been completed, these films have also gotten international recognition or won awards too. Point of correction some of those movies u mentioned had foreign producers,movies like heritage africa, love brewed in an african pot,and i sing of a well all had foreign producers, i can accept that movies from sparrow camp might be purely ghanaian.

        • @flint, thanks flint for replying back..first of all r u really sure ppl confuse ghanaian movies for nollywood movies? i mean come on, one of the big difference between our movies and ur movies is the accent..how do ppl get confuse with a ghanaian accent and nigerian accent..even foreigners unfamiliar with our movies can tell the difference..but u might be right thou since some nija’s always claim that all our light skin stars belongs to them so they probably confuse our stars with ur stars..some of the movies u mentioned, i have never heard of it..and i believe most ppl from this site have never heard of it either even some naijas..some of ur arguments were on point but some of them were a lil bit off but i don wanna go into details cuz i know we will never come to an agreement..u said we have to craw before we get there but don’t u think is abt time we start walking..if a child continue to craw wen the child has passed the crawing stage, we’ll naturally think there’s something wrong with the child..base on the movies i’ve seen in the past from both sides it is hard to believe we will start walking anytime soon cuz there’s huge room for improvement..but I believe we will get there, i know we will get there but only time will tell…yes maybe dey had help wit foreigners wit those productions but aint nothing wrong wit dat atleast they weren’t from nollywood..but im glad thou we aiming high diz days.. we now rolling with some of the bigs dogs…i kno we will move from square one in no time..one of my questions u failed to answer was our stars nollywood made popular and the movies that made them popular..cuz 9ja claims made most of our stars popular but can’t even name some of the movies that made them popular.

Ugly disgusting idiots what makes you think Nigerians will have respect to black monkeys like you.We made your actors and actress,we can easily destroy them because they depend on our movie industry to earn a better living.How much does vicker or Apiah earn in a movie in Ghana and ask them how much they earn when they have a role in Nigeria movies,we have the money and the human resources in short we have all iu takes and that is why we are always on top.I will advice you ungly Ghanaians to stop causing heart attack to yourselves because you will never never get Nigerians level in any thing.Bastards,people calling themselves a nation how many companies in Ghana are owned by Ghanaians none you don’t have the money and human resources to compare yourselves with Nigerians you need foreigners and Nigerians to survive.Idiots i hate you guys with passion.

    • @jojo, Wow, tell me the last time Naija film beat a world record, for instance name the highest grossing Naija film and I bet it did not even reach $1Billion US Dollar.

      Has a Naija film beat South Africa’s highest grossing film Tsotsi?

      Mediocrity is killing Naija battling for scraps in Africa instead of battling Hollywood they remain ever present dwelling at the bottomless pit of illiteracy, indecency all around FOOLISHNESS.

      Reply
      • @Kin, ok let me spill it out for u,yes no nigerian movie has grossed up to a billion and u know why, it is because we are still not as advanced as hollywood in terms of marketing,distribution,equipments etc nollywood is just 18yrs old while hollywood is a 114yrs old, even hollywood that we all crave about, do u know how old hollywood was before it recorded its first billion dollar grossing movie and it was not until 1997 the movie titanic reached that mark, guess what hollywood was 101yrs when it reached this mark, so now tell me how would you expect an infant nollywood compared to hollywood to make such a mark in such a short period of its existence.Even bollywood that is 97yrs old hasn’t even come any close to that, they highest grossing bollywood movie is THREE IDIOTS, it grossed a hundred and eleven million dollars, well since u care to compare, why haven’t the ghanaian movie industry grossed that much since you guys shouldn’t be competiting with nollywood, maybe ur movie industry is now better than nollywood, u know what i agree, there shouldn’t be any competition of ur movie indsutry with nollywood because nollywood is above the ghanaian movie industry, ur industry should be in competition with the movie industries of uganda,kenya,tanzania etc u need to look up their movie industries and see how far ur movie industry is behind theirs. South Africa u are talking about, they depend on hollywood for most part of their film production, in my own opinion i would say the south african movie idustry is a branch or an extension of hollywood, this is because the same way nollywood influences the ghanaian movie industry is the same way hollywood influences the south african movie industry in the sence that most of their movies has hollywood directing,producing,sreenwriting,editing,marketing and distributing them, and of course some of their movies have hollywood stars playing lead roles in them to the extent that the south africans are now complaining against it arguing that they too have the raw talent to take up such roles, speaking of tsotsi, you got it all wrong by saying it is the highest grossing south african movie, they highest grossing south africn movie is jeruselema which grossed 400 million dollars and guess what it was marketed and distributed by hollywood, and to your question yes i can tell u a nigerian movie osuofia in london has beaten Tsotsi at the box office, osuofia in london even with the shaky nollywood distribution system as compared to that of the south africans grossed 8.9 million dollars just in the united states alone, this figure does not include its sales in nigeria,uk,carribean,the rest of africa, and the world around, and also this figures does not include the sales of its part two, this figures like i have already said is just based on the sales of the movie’s part one in the united states, it was distributed by ulzee nigeria limited,now tell me has any ghanaian movie grossed up a million dollars, well if u don’t mind let me answer that for u, the answer is no.Yes i know nigeria has done a lot of crappy movies but you know what they have also done good ones aswell and on a more serious note they have done a lot more quality movies than ghana, apart from the movies from the likes of leila,shirley,emmanuel apea and partially kobi rana, the rest are crappy and average movies.

        Reply
        • @flint, Correction, Athol Fugard is South African he wrote the book to Tsotsi and supervised script writing which was done by a South African Gavin Hood whose also the director. The film starred almost exclusively South Africans and Im very glad you mentioned the discontent of thier people when non-South Africans play South Africans

          (that is a trend that Nollywood is having a hard time coming to terms with, the sooner we learn to deal with it as BUSINESS the faster we progress.Bollywood and Hollywood have been doing this since its first block buster albait racist hit film Birth of a Nation-then there’s Imitation of Life-the 2versions ).

          Did Osuofia in London gain any critical acclaim the way Tsotsi did? Has it or did it win any international film fest awards the way Tsotsi did if so is it more than Tsotsi? Tsotsi was top 10 at the Box Office meaning this is before DVD, forgive but I have not ever seen a Naija film screening in any theater not even the art-house theater which sometimes screen Bollywood films like theThree Idiots you mentioned.

          You know the painful part about responding to you is, neither of us are movers and shakers in the industry, but I appreciate that posterity will read our critique and still ask the question WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH NAIJA GHANA relations?

          Film is film
          – since when is it okay for a professional throw decency out the door and insult a colleague?

          I want to give Baba Hollywood the benefit of reputation and all that jazz but its stupid mistakes like that which fuel passions that otherwise would be used to perfect the craft that is Film.

          You advice about where we ought to seek inspiration while prudent falls back into my point about “scraps”, Did Japan wait 300years-reference to USA’s powerhouse in the Americas- to be a powerhouse in Asia after the bombings in our grandparents generation?

          I appreciate learning, but what all I want to get accross is Ghana does not need to lower itself just so Naija can take the mantle.

      • @Kin, now let me be more elaborate here, u asked which nigerian movie can beat south african highest grossing movie tsotsi, well that to me seems like a money question which i did answer you, u never mentioned anything about awards, well on the part of the awards, i have two anwers for that, first osuofia in london is not a kind of movie that wins awards is meant for entertainment or to be specific it is a comedy when compared to tsotsi,we all know gavin hood is a well established actor in hollywood so he would have the connection to play the politics in the academy awards, the producer is a well established english producer,besides the movie was promoted by hollywood not the south african movie industry, the movie had some crew members from hollywood aswell,nollywood is not complaining talk more of coming to terms with anything rather it is the ghanaians complaining a lot, the nigerian movies across the niger and the figurine were premiered at the london Odeon Leicester Square cinema which is one of the british biggest cinemas, like i said earlier i find it difficult to beleive that a full grown man will wake up one day create confusion by giving wrong locations to his cast, and when they cast finally find there way to where he is, he ignores the nigerians then decides to lay insults on an actress simply because she is ghanaian, i think there is more to this which hasn’t been said afterall this same director has worked with akofa,vivian anchor,eckow blackson(probably on the same said with this actress according to one of his recent interviews that i watched) etc without any problem, so there must be more to this story, lets get something straight here i didn’t give u advice on anything at all, so i don’t know where this japan and usa powerhouse thing is coming from, and nobody is asking ghana to lower itself for anything or anybody, just saying you guys should admit to the truth and facts.

      • @Kin, i forgot to add that the nigerian movie laviva was screened at the 2008 cannes film festival, i believe you know that cannes film festival is one the three major and biggest film festival in the world, ezra was screened at fespaco,the up coming nigerian movie ije has been screened at over twenty film festivals.

        • @flint, Congrats. I like seeing my fellow Africans putting positive stamps on the world.

          I hope for more from all our continents film industries.

          I will continue to support professionalism from directors, actors and full cast.

          I recently found out a number of East Africans come to ply their acting trade in Ghana and I applaud this.

          I wish and hope for more good news and development. Go Gollywood, Go Africa.

    • @james james,
      look at this idiot called james james talking u re actually comparing naija to ghana really i laugh in korea. naija a coutry of over 130 mil with second largest gdp behind south africa has 70 percent of population below poverty level and u re here running your mouth. thats over 80 million people re u guys not even ashamed. mugu dont even get me started on nigeria. so 10 million of over 130 million re rich and u think is an achievemnt. i laugh in korea again. only some ignorant and illiterate ghanaians would think naija is better at anything than ghana. dont u know it was ghanaian teachers that was teaching yall in the 60s and 70s. stupid ignorant fool u think if ghanaians were slaving in naija as u claimed the gov would ve asked us to leave. ghanaians were taking ova the economy from big posotions to also even menial jobs like shoe shining. so because of oil u think re guys re better than everybody. i laugh in kobo.. boy if u get me started i will let u cry about ur naija. l laugh in cedi

  21. Ladies and Gentlemen,
    Why the insults and Misunderstanding amongst U Africans. Is this what we all need as Africans in order to grow in a world full of Inequality where Africa is being cheated ?

    The success for Cameroon, Nigeria, Ghana, S.Africa, Ivory Coast, e.t.c is the success for all Africans, Please ! Individually we will failed and in Harmony , we will succeed.
    We all need one another with humility and the love and that meekness that our forefathers fought to liberate us from Colonialism, but there’s still more to be done ! Lets talked over those issues that we disagreed.
    Lets called this misunderstanding a teachable moment for all Africans and parties consent !

    Thank You !
    Ayuk Arrey- Cameroon.

  22. >@nanaya.  Idiot, have tried reading the comments.  Most of them said, Nigeria not director or his name.. Nigeria didn’t do this, the director did. So, if u have some dumbass comment to make, write it to the director not nigeria.  If u think my comment is rubbish u should try reading yours… And when you are done carrying other people’s buisness go have your self some advil or if u don’t  know what that is, go take some panadol……

  23. please who is dat fool comparing Nigerien movies to Ghanaian movies. can any naija movie compare to AFRICAN HERITAGE, LOVE BREW IN AFRICAN POT, AFRICAN TEMBER, SIKA SUMSUM, I TOLD YOU SO just but to mention a few. how many Nigerien movies have won international awards but Ghanaian movies like love brew in african pot, african heritage did. And who said nigerien started acting b/4 ghanains? if it was not for the Malaysians who collaborated with the Nigerien to destroy Ghana film industry after conspiring with them, who would have known abt their movies. thank God ghana film is picking form and taking it rightful place, sending shiverings in the spines of those Good for nothing ANAGO cum ALATA people. God bless our home land ghana n make our nation great and strong. All weapons the ANAGO people will fashion against as will never prosper. Amen

    • @oj, yes who is comparing ghanaian movies to nigerian movies, nigerian movies are way above ghanaian movies, it is just like saying ok our movies are better than bollywood movies, yes bollywood produces a lot of crappy movies but the also produce great movies that can be likened to those of hollywood.Yes a lot of nigerian movies can be compared o heritage africa and beat it out hands down, jeese people stop living in past glory, i think i have heard this heritage africa,love brewed in an african pot etc like a thousand times, nigeria film makers like the late ola balogun,hubert ogunde, even kunle afolayan’s father(director of the figurine) etc also did great films but hey nollywood is not dwelling in all those past glory.Films like figurine, laviva,ezra,inale,the amazing grace,ije,tango with me,unbreakable nation(has a budget of 10 million dollars) beats any ghanaian movie anyday anytime,the nigerian movie ezra won international awards,ije has already won 5 international awards even before its release, my dear get your facts straight because nollywood was built by nigerians alone without any collaboration or conspiration from malaysians or anybody,just face the fact that your movie industry wasn’t competitive enough and got ridden over by nollywood, urmovie industry will never send shivers to nollywood u understand because it is nollywood that is facilitating that improvement in the first place.

  24. ANAGO MOVIES BEST MY ASS. YOUR STORY LINES ARE ALWAYS STOLEN FROM FORIEGN MOVIES. PLEASE WATCH AFRICAN HERITAGE AND YOU WILL REGERATE EVER TO BE BORN IN NAIJA. ANAGO FO NA WOHO

    • @oj, funny a thing you mentioned stealing stories from foreign movies, yes i admit nollywood does that, even hollywood and bollywood does that aswell, but you know what we also have great unique story lines that are not copied more than you guys.Watch figurine,laviva,ezra and you will also regret ever being born in ghana aswell.Talking of story lines are u kidding me, the story line from beyonce was a complete rip off of a nigerian movie which i can’t remember the name again, the same line where nadia told van if he thinks he would dump her after seeing her nakedness was the exact word to word statement sandra achums said to ramsey,ok what about the movie sin of the soul, this was a complete rip off of a nigerian movie called fragile pain, the same exact story line except for a few changes in their bid not to make it not too noticeable that it was a rip off, for example the scene where majid killed the girl was the same exact scene where michael okon killed bimbo akintola’s friend,the story line for princess tyra was a rip off of a movie starring jim iyke and nkeiru sylvanus,so who is guilty here now.

  25. the fault is not from Ifeanyi, but Khareema !!!! a good actor or actress must get informations and orders only from his/her director!!! It’s true that Ifeanyi easily insults people, but hey!!! He is the best stunt movie director in Africa!!!!! And to be able to work with his class of director, an actor or actress must be highly disciplined!!! the production crew, Zoree, henry, Don ziguy and co are all bullshit!!!

  26. Look at how people are insulting each other over this issue. That is why this continent will never go forward. we cannot even come togther to make films how can we do anything else. Enough with the Ghanaian movies are better than Nigerian movies CRAP! What good does that do? Is learning from each other and supporting each other too much to ask? Oh as for black man deaaaaaar, hmmmm…..
