Veteran Ghanaian actor Kofi Adjorlolo confidently dismissed claims that supernatural forces, commonly known as “juju,” are influencing the success or failure of individuals in the Ghanaian film industry.
He emphasised that he has never encountered such issues throughout his long-standing career and suggested that claims of juju are likely exaggerated or based on personal misconceptions.
This perspective stands in contrast to what some actors have recently shared, including high-profile stars like Yvonne Nelson and Kalybos, who have publicly talked about their experiences with supposed juju attacks while working on movie sets.
Adjorlolo’s comments reflect a growing divide in the industry, with some firmly believing in supernatural interference while others, like him, view it as a myth or psychological perception. Entertainment pundits like Arnold Asamoah-Baidoo have also suggested that such claims may be rooted in psychological factors rather than real mystical occurrences, further fueling this ongoing debate.
Kofi Adjorlolo’s stance highlights his confidence in relying on talent, hard work, and professionalism as key to success in the industry, challenging others to move away from such beliefs. It’s an interesting take on the industry and the beliefs that surround it.
