Ace Ghanaian actor, Bill Asamoah has graduated with a master’s degree in Monitoring and Evaluation from the Christian Service University College in Kumasi.
The renowned Kumawood actor and producer had to jostle between acting and his postgraduate education while he catered for his family.
He joined over 200 postgraduate students to form members of the 46th Special Congregation of the university.
Bill couldn’t hide his joy during the 46th Special congregation ceremony as he walked gracefully down the aisle to receive his certificate of honour.
“I’m super excited and more than humbled for this glory and this feat that I have attained. Thanks to every soul that has supported me this far,” he said.
He says the education and skills gained from the degree program will be channeled into the film industry to enhance the sector and ultimately pique the interest of the public.
“As I am still working in the film industry, every single knowledge I have acquired I will transcend it there. Whatever opportunity I will be given, I am ready to serve with the skills have gained so far,” he added.
The local movie industry, particularly Kumawood has in the past years suffered a grave breakdown – almost at the verge of collapse.
The production and sale of movies in the local dialect [Twi] have not seen much patronage with upload of most movies on streaming platforms.
The President of the Kumasi Branch of the Ghana Actors Guild is entreating local movie lovers to visit online movie sites to catch glimpses of Ghanaian movies.
“We have been advocating for a single platform where we can have all the movies uploaded for people to enjoy. A platform where about 2 million Ghanaians are subscribed to. But for the time being, people should at least use an amount of their data to stream our movies,” he indicated.
However, he is suggesting a collaboration between local television broadcasting networks and movie producers to create quality contents for television as observed on international TV channels.
“The independent channels should commission some of our producers to do contents for them by shooting some of the tv series and the movies for them. They shouldn’t only go back door and be buying them at cheaper prices as well as buying some of our old movies and showing them on TV,” he said.
