Screen diva Lydia Forson has claimed in a recent tweet that although Ghanaians do not demand as much from the government, they still don’t get what they deserve in all aspects of life.
She said, among other things, that the clueless NPP administration is giving us a cathedral and putting up expensive restaurants that the typical Ghanaian can’t afford rather than meeting our most basic needs.
“When you think about it, Ghanaians are not asking for much oh. Good roads, stable electricity, water, hospitals and just the basics for human survival.
Instead, we’re getting a cathedral, expensive restaurants and real estate and everything else the average Ghanaian can’t afford,” the actress and filmmaker wrote.
Forson’s acting career started with a cameo role in Hotel St. James (2005), Run Baby Run (2006), Different Shades of Blue (2007) and a stint in the reality show The Next Movie Star in Nigeria (2007).
Shirley Frimpong-Manso, CEO of Sparrow Productions, who had previously worked with her in the Ghanaian television series Different Shades of Blue, brought Forson back to the screens through the movie Scorned.
This starring role led to her first African Movie Academy Awards (AMAA) nomination as the Best Upcoming Female Actress.
