Charles Awurum Claps Back At Mr. Logic
Nollywood superstar, Charles Awurum fired back at Ghanaians who said that Lil Win’s “A Country Called Ghana” should not feature Nigerians.
Mr. Logic lauded Lil Win for his ability to bring Nigerian superstars to Ghana, however, lambasted the controversial actor for featuring them in his movie.
Mr. Logic is of the view that it makes no sense to feature Nigerians in the movie dubbed “A country called Ghana”, giving the reason that a Nigerian cannot tell the stories of Ghana.
Charles Awurum who didn’t see the need for his statement clapped back at Mr. Logic and other people who said the same, describing their actions as foolishness and stupidity.
Charles Awurum mentioned that there is nothing wrong with Lil Win featuring Nigerians in his movies.
The Nollywood actor claimed there are equally Nigerians who reside in the country and know the story of Ghana, adding that before people could go ahead and criticize the movie, they should wait and know the storyline and the purpose of the Nigerians in the movie before they make conclusions.
Charles Awurum believes that Mr. Logic and those saying negative things about the movie are envious of the Kumawood actor.
“So it is funny and it is some few jealous people that cost the whole thing. It is some people who think Lil Win should not progress. They are the people causing this. Some people who feel that why will Lil Win be the first person to shoot ‘A Country Called Ghana’ with Nigerians, are the ones doing this”, Charles Awurum said.
“And it is stupidity, it is foolishness because Lil Win is trying to grow the movie industry in Ghana and you are fighting to bring it down, which is bad,” he further added.
