Entertainment Journalist and Pundit, Arnold Asamoah Baidoo, has expressed his disappointment in Kumawood actors who were present at the meeting with John Dramani Mahama and applauded Abeiku Santana for condemning digitization being introduced into the creative space to improve revenue.
According to him, the Kumawood movie industry is lagging because it did not embrace technological advancement at its early stages.
Therefore, it is shocking that they will applaud someone who is condemning a move to create a platform to enhance their work but rather appreciate a television station that people will pay momo to watch.
“The man said there are lies surrounding the streaming platform. After that, he questioned the relevance of the streaming platform. When he was done, then he said when they come to power they will introduce a television station where people will have to pay momo to watch.
Is Momo not digital? Let me take the bottom-up approach like John Dumelo. In 2024, I’m not saying a tv station is not the best but Empress you and I know that we’ve moved on. Once again they were applauding.
The same Kumawood stars who were present there and applauding are aware that the albatross on their neck is the fact that they did not catch up with technological advancement.
Then somebody is standing and promising a television station when they know that Kumawood’s failure has been their failure to catch up with the technological advancement, and you’re clapping for him knowing that your industry, which is on its knees, is because you didn’t catch up with technological advancement,” he said on Accra-based United Television.
