The CEO of Ghana Film Authority and Renowned Ghanaian actress, Kafui Danku made a powerful statement about the future of Ghana’s creative industry as she attended the 24-Hour Economy colloquium at the Bank of Ghana on Tuesday. The event, which aimed to promote the Creative Arts and Tourism sector, saw the convergence of top leaders, policymakers, and industry players to discuss how Ghana’s economy could thrive around the clock.
Among the distinguished guests were the sector minister, Hon. Dzifa Abla Gomashie, the presidential advisor on the 24-Hour Economy, Goosie Tanoh, and legal luminary Aunty Betty Mould-Iddrisu. Their presence signaled the government’s commitment to fostering a more dynamic and lucrative creative industry, where film, music, and tourism could flourish beyond traditional business hours.
Kafui Danku, known for her advocacy and passion for Ghana’s film industry, expressed her optimism about the initiative. In a social media post, she hinted at “exciting times ahead,” a phrase that has sparked conversations among creatives who are eager to see how this policy could benefit the sector.
With the National Film Authority (NFA) actively involved in the discussions, stakeholders anticipate strategic policies that will provide better opportunities for filmmakers, actors, and tourism operators. Could this be the beginning of a new era where Ghana’s nightlife, entertainment hubs, and film industry operate at full capacity 24/7?
As the nation watches closely, industry players are hopeful that the 24-Hour Economy framework will lead to job creation, increased revenue, and global recognition for Ghana’s creative arts. For now, Kafui Danku and other key figures remain at the forefront, pushing for a brighter future for the entertainment and tourism sectors.
