I cannot dig into the whole Leila Djansi & Akorfa Asiedu battle on here. It will take me years of writing to capture all that has erupted out of the relationship between these two as a result of the movie ” I Sing Of A Well”.
When I thought all was over and calm between these two ladies, Leila has posted another twist to things suggesting that it is not over . Who is holding on to this deadlock?
Leila Djansi is a great director and Akorfa Asiedu is an ace Actress, together they can make an impact on our movie industry but held apart by issues upon issues….
Check out the current development of events captured from Leila Djansi’s facebook update. (Click on it to enlarge for proper reading)
hmmm.i fink dis two ladies have problems deeper than i sing of a well.time will tell who was using who.
Soo true.
Lol these two are even worse than Tom and Jerry
Miyagi, which one of them can be jerry?
B.B I guess Leila she is always picking up a fight and can’t leave this alone
Who will leave this alone, have u ever been in a situation like this
before? It hurt when you trust smone and they disappoint u in
the end. I can tell from Leila’s action that she is telling the truth.
And definitely hurting. I like Akorfa for many reasons, but i believe
she is a huge part of the problem; if she could make and produce
a movie, why wait all this while? and why is she not making or
producing smthing else. At least Leila is coming out with her 2nd
movie after the incident. This proves that Leila put a lot of effort
into “I sing of a well” and trusted Akorfa to be her partner who then
disappointed her. Sorry Leila, and good luck with ur career.
leila likes drama too mch i thought she already left dis issue wid akorfa n moved on. n akorfa shld stop lying if she is about leila cus itz only gonna bring more drama sheesh…
@hey, i kind of think so too. what a drama queen;- leila djansi. pls put a sock in it. enuff drama already.
again??
they really need to get laid! their issues seem to be deeper than what it appears to be. a good shag will sort them out! Yes Angel said it!
Leila is quite immature. We get it. The two of you don’t get along. But to keep airing out issues does not speak well of either of them, especially Leila. So sue me? that is the hallmark of immature, childspeak. Adults don’t defend themselves like that: if you don’t like it sue me.
She may be a good filmmaker and all, but either she has a God complex or she is very immature. Mebbe both.
Na wa.
@ whatever, not only is her actions immature, its also very unladylike.
what do you know about immaturity…………things need to be put right when they are not. i dont think you even know much about the film industry
whatever……………

And the drama queen goes to Miss……………. lol.
i think leila loves drama and attention. Girl just produce the movies. Thats all we want you to do and no drama please. Akorffa or whatever her name is also tripping. IS JUST TRIFLING!!
I smell a bit if jealousy between those two girls I guess they both not in a relationship maybe reason why they going hard on each other
LOL. maybe it might be b’cos of some dude thats why all these attack. time will tell
Lol BB we on the same page time will tell when one of them finally decide to spit it out
I jst knew i saw lila in that hall!!! i kept starring the person during the question and answer session but because she did not get up to say anything, i though i was wrong.
give leila a break. i got to see the movie and i am so loving leila djansi right now. wonderful movie. wonderful movie.
Akofa was not fair to leila at all in the hall. she made leila look like a very bad person. i can see why is putting on her status.
i did not believe akofa when she said she spent a 100,000 at all. and she belittled leils work on the film. saying things like till today she does not know how much was spent on post production. and how she regrets not signing a contract with leila.
leila is mature. if i had been in her shoes, we would have fought in the screening. but she sat quietly in back and said nothing. everybody was asking for the director but she stayed put. akofa could have answered most of the questions without painting such a bad image of leila.
i want to know why leila has so many haters. please tell me. what has she done?
@ celine, oh yeah? matured ppl dont go on facebook talking abt who did this & that. silence as they say is the best revenge. she could have kept quite abt it then at least we the observers would have been like, wow she handled the issue like a matured person..
……but look at her now, running to FB to announce blah blah blah. nobody hates her celine, its her own actions that gives her out.
Also remember, a lady is seen but not heard.
B.B point well made. spitting your dummy out on facebook sure isnt the way to handle issues like this. she could have shown some maturity and class. no doubt her movies get rave attention and credits and she is good at what she does. throwing these tantrums wont do her any good.
Good! Celine, I now know there are people seeing this from the right direction. I do not know Leila, but i believe her story just from watching an interview with Akorfa and all the information out there on this issue. I can’t write all of what I think abt this issue; but i definitely get the picture and Leila is right.
she went oh her facebook. what is wrong in that. celebs tweet about stuff all the time. she is allowed to do what she wants on her facebook. that don’t make her a bad person. if she had not put it there, some of us will walk away thinking Akofas side of the story is the truth.
i think you people hate her.
when she was robbed by her pa, she was insulted, when she said her car got broken into, she was again insulted. when gc writes positive things about her, you see 4 comments or no comments. negative things you see more than 30 comments. why is that?
after watching i sing of a well, i just love leila now. i really do. i
can’t wait to see sinking sands on sunday.
but why did gc post her fb status? thats not fair.
hahahahahahahahhaha………. seriously WHO ARE YOU????
Are you sure you are not leila the DRAMA QUEEN herself?
Read the comments well, nobody said she’s bad. and yes she can write whatever she wants on her FB. but like i said, its her actions that gives her out.
BB why are you wasting your time on such a nincompoop
my brother, that was my last comment on the “DRAMA QUEEN”.
What actions? When u see someone’s beard burning, fetch water, as a precaution in case it happens to u too.
you have proved me rigth after all. anyone who dares to say they like leila djansi is accused of being her online. i think you would prefer we all come together to insult her. how sad. for a filmmaker putting ghana on the map, this is very sad. oh well. to each his own. typical african mentality.
I love Leila’s work but I think she shd just let go of watever happened between Akorfa & herself.
and when i call leila controversial, ppl want to come at my next…u’ve all seen it now…she is just an attention seeker….nonsense
@ lily, i now understand your previous comments about her. you were right.
Who will leave this alone, have u ever been in a situation like this before? It hurt when you trust smone and they disappoint u inthe end. I can tell from Leila’s action that she is telling the truth.And definitely hurting.

Its very apparent dat Leila is dat 1 pickin up de fight..dey shd meet up sumwhere n den organize sum boxin thgy n den fight properly n stop usin usin facebk to fight..dey shd do dat physically..
@cici lol as long as the both wear grandma pants and fight in mod than I will be happy to see it than
Hahaha..dats so funny Miyagi..grandma’s pants paa..what kind of pants are those tho??
You knOw those big O XXXL large ones hang’ on their but like they shit in their pants dem grandma pants
Hahahhahhahhhahaahhaahahahhahahahahaahahhah
Hmmm Leila sure is controversial but put yourself in her shoes and maybe you will understand where she’s coming from. Anytime I hear news about ppl or celebrities in general I try to understand them as a human first and then make my judgments. If my name is being dragged like that I wouldn’t wanna sit there all in the name of being the bigger person. Silence can kill your ass sometimes. Funny how nobody is saying anything about Akorfa’s part. What was Leila to do. Just shut up and let it slide? like you will let it slide if you were in her shoes. I know I wouldn’t. I’ll probably do more than just putting it on my FB status. Have y’all notice that with all that controversy following her, she happens to be right most of the time? I think problems follow her. she doesn’t look for it. She is only false to retaliate once those problems comes. I agree with you @Celine for the most part.
I meant forced not false
Well said Nanayaa; I sympathize with Leila a lot.
I think they arel all matured so they should stop this nonsense.
If Akorfa had not lied again, she wouldn’t have responded. Celine says she witnessed it.
Thank you Nanaya. I was about to say something but I had to hold myself. your comment however has allowed me say something,
I am very shocked that no one is saying anything about what leila wrote. they are all only insulting her. I discussed this with my mum and she made a comment which I think is right.
Leila is a threat to many. She is not attractive to most and is not what you expect when you see her after you have heard of her. In Africa, we respect looks. and since she does not wear false hair and false lashes, people find it hard to accept that, this ordinary person is wealthy, influential and is doing what no one else can do in this times in the country. leila is making original movies and not copy cat movies like salam and shirley. leila is making movies with hollywood stars. how many have done that? we don’t want to accept that this thin, anorexic looking girl is responsible for such. if she looked like Beyonce, we will have whole hearted accepted her. When i saw her photo the first time I was shocked too. and I was a bit jealous that this small girl is doing all this, but admiration took over my jealousy. she is my friend in facebook and I enjoy reading her updates because she is funny and nice.
i find it hard to believe that leila will lie on her facebook. why then is no one discussing the issue at hand? Why did Akofa go to court for I sing of a well not to be released? why did she go to insult leila in a public theater? the fact that akofa has not said anything about leila to the media does not mean she is not insulting leila. she is. is that delay video not here where she calls leila a fool? i also heard her on TV saying that leila had banned the movie from amaa awards which was also a lie she told about leila. Akofa came to london and told all who cared to listen this and that about leila. why should leila also not react on facebook? if indeed akofa said bad things about her in a theater, I can only imagine why leila will also put her side of thestory on facebook. she has her honor to defend.
leila is not controversial. trouble follows her and she reacts like any normal himan being. I am sure Akofa has friends and admirers who come here under various IDs to insult people on her behalf, but some of us are discerning readers and listeners.
if you guys are not aware, this is history with akofa. akofa came to london to make a film called fools in love. because of her attitude, the film got into dispute and has till today not been released. she had a fight with the director on that too and where is the movie? GC should contact Akofa and ask her what happened to fools in love and to joyce. ask her if the actors did not walk off the set because they could not stand akofa.
after I sing of a well, leila has made another hit movie and is about to make another again. what has akofa done? its has been two years. why has she not made another film if she is all that? why is akofa not getting roles in the industry if she is that great? she was even fired off tinsel in nigeria.
this I sing of a well movie we are talking about topped AMAA nominations and made Ghana proud, the person responsible for that film is leila djansi. give her some damm respect.
My dear you couldn’t have said it any better…The “ghanaman syndrome” its very deadly..once you are infected by it, it will keep eating you up until there’s nomore to eat. That my friend is what most ghanaians suffer from. We fear too much. “me p3 as3m so suro as3m” ( we like trouble but fear trouble). I love Leila to death and her no nonsense atitude. I give it to her, she really comported herself in this case. staying at the theatre and not say anything was a big step. I know most of us would have done worst. I’m also very shocked that nobody is talking about the issue at hand but the controversy following Leila. dammit did she asked for it? what about Akorfa and what she did. It seems like Akorfa is being praised here. Leila didn’t just wake up and said “oh I need to update my status and say something about Akorfa just bcos I don’t like her”. No. something triggered Leila’s actions. Putting that on her facebook status makes her only human. Now can we talk about what Akorfa did? because sister girl was foul for telling all that lies. I still love her thou, she too is human but I hate supporting blindly. Akorfa was wrong and needs to be corrected if she really did told all that lies.SMDH
it may be Akorfa’s fault; it may be Leila’s fault; it may be nobody’s; it may be oth of them – the truth is, we don’t know.
But the point is, hurting or not, Leila is sounding like a petulant child and not a full-grown woman. It is NOT mature. She is NOT mature.
@Whatever what will do if you were in Leila’s shoes. What ways do you think Leila could have taken to handle this issue?
I most definitely will not be on facebook throwing tantrums like a spoiled child – that’s for true.
didnt she have a fight with Genevieve???
she did not have a fight with genevieve. She fired genevieve off a film called tulips and Genevieve sent out a press release insulting her and van vicker. do your research.
how can u fire someone when in the first place u never contracted them,leila never fired genny because they never had a contractual agreement,u wished she fired genny,it was because of the controversial nature of leila that made genny decide not to work with her,how come since then genny hasn’t had any trouble with all the other big time producers she has worked with,look at how many quarrels leila has picked up since the genny incident,now that says a lot about what happend between her and genny, WHAT AN ATTENTION SEEKING CONTORVERSIAL LADY.
To me, i think there is more to this saga btn these two ladies than just what the eyes cant see. there is more to it that we outsiders dont know. You 2 better solve it and stop behaving like teenagers. Grow up girls
I most definitely will not be on facebook throwing tantrums like a spoiled child – that’s for true.
