Veteran Nollywood actor and musician Harry B Anyanwu has publicly praised Ghanaian President John Dramani Mahama, describing him as the best leader in Africa. Anyanwu made the comments while filming 'A Journey to Africa' at Nzulezu in Ghana's Western Region, alongside several major Nigerian and Ghanaian actors. The film is being led by Ghanaian actor and filmmaker Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly known as LilWin.
According to Harry B, Mahama's leadership reflects the kind of governance he believes other African presidents should aspire to. He urged leaders across the continent to learn from the Ghanaian president. Anyanwu's remarks were made during the production of the new cross-border film, which features prominent actors from Ghana and Nigeria. The film aims to bring together major talents from both sides of the Ghana-Nigeria film industry.
The movie, 'A Journey to Africa', is being filmed at Nzulezu in Ghana's Western Region and includes Nollywood stars such as Kanayo O Kanayo, Patience Ozokwo, Mike Ezuruonye, Charles Awurum, Zubby Michael, Destiny Etiko, and Harry B Anyanwu. LilWin revealed that he had considered arranging a visit for the cast to meet President Mahama at the Jubilee House, the official seat of Ghana's presidency. However, the distance between Nzulezu and Accra made an immediate visit impractical.
LilWin plans to arrange a meeting between the Nigerian cast and President Mahama when they return to Ghana for the film's premiere. The planned meeting would add a political and cultural dimension to a production that is already bringing together major talents from Ghana and Nigeria. This collaboration represents another step in strengthening creative ties between the two countries.
The project aims to showcase Ghanaian locations and talent to a wider African audience. For the filmmakers and cast, 'A Journey to Africa (Nzulezu)' is expected to further strengthen creative ties between Ghana and Nigeria. Anyanwu's praise for President Mahama highlights the admiration of international artists for Ghana's leadership.
Anyanwu stated that Mahama is doing what other presidents are supposed to do, and urged them to copy him. He described Mahama as "the best in Africa" and emphasized that other African leaders should emulate his leadership style. This public endorsement of President Mahama by a prominent Nollywood actor has generated significant attention.
