Popular Ghanaian actress Yvonne Nelson who well known for producing great Ghanaian movies has shared what led her to start producing movies even though she is an actress.
Speaking in interview with GTV’s morning show host Kafui Dey, the actress narrated that she skipped school to be on set but her presence was ignored so she voiced out her displeasure about how she is been treated but things didn’t go the way she anticipated after voicing out her displeasure but got banned from acting for a year.
“Something occurred on Abdul Salam’s set, and I voiced my displeasure.”
“I spent two days on the set without missing a beat, yet they did nothing with me. They failed to film my scenes.”
“I was studying at Central University at the time. I recall that Salam was aware that I was at school and that I had homework, tests, and essays to write.”
“But I thought they were just ignoring me. There are so many females in line waiting to play what you are doing on the set that it doesn’t matter if you are in school or not. Why, then, are you even grumbling?”
“So on the third day, I warned them, ‘Listen, if I show up tomorrow and you guys don’t film, that would be the end of it’.”
“Salam became irate, and I fled.”
“However, I recall that Majeed Michel was on the set, and he recalls everything that transpired that day.”
“I returned, went back to school, and all I heard was that Yvonne Nelson was being banned. She won’t be able to act for a whole year. That’s exactly what happened.”
