I believe in God, not all the noise around me – Nadia Buari

Actress Nadia Buari has expressed her thoughts on the state of Ghana’s movie industry, calling for more investment and better infrastructure to help the industry thrive.

The award-winning Ghanaian actress emphasized the challenges faced by the industry in comparison to its Nigerian counterpart, particularly in terms of cinema availability during during an interview with Giovanni Caleb on 3FM monitored by MyNewsGh.

“Imagine with our little resources; we’re creating magic,” Buari said. “But if we had more, we’d achieve even greater things. Look at Nigeria; they have cinema halls in every state. Investors can invest in projects, knowing they have guaranteed returns. In Ghana, we’re limited to just a few cinemas.”

Buari also commented on the lack of support for the Ghanaian film industry from key stakeholders. “It’s essential for filmmakers to unite and push for better policies and funding,” she stressed. “When we go as a collective, our voices are heard more clearly.”

The actress, who has worked on both Ghanaian and Nigerian film projects, noted that while Nigerian productions often offer more substantial pay, it all comes down to the budget. “In Nigeria, I receive a lot more,” she shared. “The budget plays a huge role in how much an actor is paid.”

With Ghana’s film industry facing growing challenges, Buari also urged political leaders to prioritize cinema infrastructure and film funding to help the sector grow. “If they take us seriously and help fund our projects, it would make a huge difference.”
