Hello Chris,
I am not sure if you have deliberately decided not to post on the 2 Years ban which has been handed down to Actor Ekow Smith Asante by FIPAG (The same unqualified Marfia group that banned Yvonne Nelson) or you just do not find it news worthy.
Anyway, I hope this mail is given the deserve audience as I have read e-mails from other readers which you have published.
I am going to keep this concise and precise. When Socrate Sarfo and his gang of marfia with Idikoko being 2nd in command banned Yvonne Nelson for her alleged disrespect towards Abdul Sallam and others, we threw out our sentiments on GhanaCelebrities.Com to no avail since her ban has not been lifted.
If one is killed, we can call it a sacrifice, two becomes a mistake but three means something is obviously not right.
If anyone reading this is not aware of this, then blame GC for not writing about it. The calm and respectful handsome Actor “Ekow Smith Asante” has also been banned for 2 years for failing to follow certain regulations within the Ghana Movie Industry. (Socrates can explain this better, or maybe his left hand man Idikoko can do it best).
In a space of 1 month, two good and established Actors have been banned in our small developing movie industry. What is the sense in all these bans? Soon all the Actors and Actresses will be banned by FIPAG, a group not far from a gang of dictators and bullies.
After the successful banning of Yvonne Nelson and Ekow Smith, the next victim is our own grandfather and veteran “Kofi Adjorlolo”.
Socrate Sarfo and his fake Association is at his neck and they have started throwing out the word BAN. I am positive that in the next few days, he will also be added to the banned Ghanaian Actors list.
Where is our movie industry going with these senseless “Bans”? I think Socrate Sarfo and friends need to be questioned and their actions scrutinized.
After all, the Ghana Movie industry is not some tyrannous North Korean Association for two loud but poor producers like Socrate Sarfo and Idikoko to be doing as they please.
God help Ghana!

omG this is soo stupid and lame! wtf will they ban him and working on kofi adjorlolo? if there should be any baning i think it should be the stupid producers like socrato himself for making porn movies. Man am begining to be pissed at these dummies.
i need to get this ooo why r de good ppl being banned? This whole banning is throwin a different light on Yvonne’s ban mpo ooo
that socrate sarfo man needs to be banned. with the kind of useless movies he does, he should be taking out of the movie industry completely. the cheek of it. even his “ADULT ONLY” movie trailer is banned on youtube. in short, he is not qualified to ban anybody in the industry. i wonder who gives him the room to do that in the first place.
ban them all and let local champ act alone. aaaa rubbish.
hahahahaha, ban indeed! am surprised that the actors are sitting down for people who lack the capacity to be banning others from their legitimate profession. and by the way, how effective is this ban?
Is Socrate safro and Idiko behind the band of Yvonne Nelson Ekcow smith And Kofi Adjorlolo,Please Advice
Well, heard this news somewhere last week and was also wondering why GC had not posted it here.Anyway, these actors have been in the industry for quite long a time and am not sure why such decision was taken.I mean how would a movie portraying a “pimp” be shot without our own Kofi Adjorlorlo out of the box.Looks like they didnt show no respect to the old old man at all.Oh and for Ekow Smith, am not sure ..Something really needs to be done about it.Definition of Ban: A new term used in the Ghanaian movie industry.
dont mind these hypocrites it was on peace fmduring the entertainment preview.
please i don’t know socrate and idikoikoi, who are they. somebody i need an answer
they are the fool behind all this nonsence…y banning those who make ghana proud outside?this fool are up to something i think.
sometimes i wonder if those to people actually got brains by banning everybody one by one like its some sports they playing these people arent bullies but some fraud batty boys
oyiwa! en3 da ho no, when they banned yvonne u ppl congratulated them ,so why complan if they’ve taken the word ban to its full course, i tell u wat , wat is good for the goose is good for gander , i say let them keep banning , hypocrites(commentators)!! rotflmao!!
i agree wit everyone. this is STUPID. Do they want to ban all the legit actors and actress. so that every movie out of ghana is either porn or made by nija acors coming to stage here.
ask them? I think the word “ban” is a new song for them now.
ghanaians sometimes likes to copy stupidly…i dnt even know who appointed socrate sarfo and idikoko…like seriously…idikoko who used to be a gateman or cookboy in movies…VERY SENSELESS…who hired them to be on the board of ghana movie industry…ghanaians needs to be serious and wake up…and ban these fools called socrate and idikoko…all their movies are trash, but yet the have the nerve to bann ppl…i bet u they r the ones dat deliberated the ghana movie awards nominee….if such ppl are in power of the movie industry, we will not go any far…if ghanaians want to get serious, they need to wake up and SACK them ASAP…
i agree
i think this is total rubbish…ghanaian movies just started gettin recognition….n is not lyk we doin….so much great than others countries , that they shd be bannin people. they will ban n ban all the gud ones n it will be left wid the insignificant boring n these will drain us back to our poor movies again…rem even those countries on top do not do the rubbish n copy cat ghanaian do.
ok the whole story is ekow is trying to produce his own and brought in a nigeria director but socrate and co asked ekow to stop the production bcos the director is not license to work in gh. ekow refused to stop the production claiming he is not the only producer in gh having unlicensed director since the likes of frank raja r working in gh w/out a permit. so socrate called for a meeting and ekow did not show up bcos he was got in smtin. so they banned him frm film production but he is allow to act in others movie
Really? Emmm…Never knew that was the case. Actually, I co-sign you below statement of the president of the Ghana actors guild need to step his game up. Nice Social…
Oh, I heard Yvonne Nelson is not really ban yet. Is that true?
i dn’t knw about that. all i knw is that she’s banned
i honestly i dn’t blame socrate and co. i blame president of gh actors guild odei mensah for not standing up for his people. i guess he’s also afraid of being banned. almighty hollywood do not ban people. its only unmighty gollywood who does that.
lmao…
what i do know is due to poverty, I highly doubt Odoi Mensah will encourage the actors guild to boycott on behalf of these three, however in hollywood actors boycotting or writers boycotting is very effect-that’s how reality shows became so popular cause in those times actors/writers boycotted
Lisa is funny though, Kofi Ajorlolo banned abeg, that is going too far…they are messing with his pension fund
lmao…. his pension fund paa lol
what is the meaning of all these? is that the best way to bring sanity into the industry? What is the president of the Ghana Actors Guild doing about this? Let’s be serious as a people in everything that we do.
ohhh, wat did my fineeeeeeeeeeee, handsome Ekow Smith Asante do to be banned by these people.
Hey dis thing is bcoming a jk.wht de hell!!if a ban shld be put in place not this mofo called Socrates.infact dis guy needs to ban himself with his porno head.hw can u wake up n start banning ppl without a reason.Masa who gives u de rite to bann??Sum1 needs to tell dis dude he needs to go back to skool for more lessons on hw to produce good movies not dis unproffesional n baseless banns..ahah!!wht is uur prblm.
HAHAHAHA dogs are now killing themselves that shows how envious Ghanaians are they even hate their own country people.Foolish idiots.
Ekow Smith was banned for what purpose? You know Socrates will never get these actors to work for him hence the jealousies, he should be banned from making movies.
The are self employed. If you feel the actor’s behavior is not to your liking, you don’t have to sign him for a contract. That is what is done in Hollywood. so called executives should wake-up. The Movie Industry is not managed by politicians.
Wake Up Ghana Movie Industry.
i don`t agree with them is very stupid to ban them so call socrate sarfo and idikoko you all should back up before gets bad
if you people keep band these good people up we are going to stop buing ghana movie peace Errrrrrrrrrrrrrr
why, now that the movie industry is moving forward, den u decide to banned these good ators and actress
stop that pls if not we will stop buying gallywood movies
