The Ghana Cinematograph Exhibition Board of Control on Monday assured film producers, marketers and distributors that the trust they have in their operations is unwavering, and that materials submitted to them would be protected at all times.
The assurance was contained in a statement signed by Mr Isaac Dupey, Secretary to the Board in reaction to a publication on the Internet under the headline “Someone from the Censorship Board has been leaking Shirley Frimpong Manso’s movies before they come out.” It said the accusation was unfortunate and designed to tarnish the well-earned reputation of the Board.
“We would like to state that never in the history of the Board has any producer had cause to complain of a film submitted for preview and classification being leaked before they come out.” The statement said the Board had petitioned the Director-General CID at the Police Headquarters to investigate the matter thoroughly for the truth to be known.

Well… find who it is and jail him.
DENY DENY DENY this culture of corruption will only be a gollywood downfall. Its so embarassing to have obtuse operators at the helm of this board….deid he not see that a strategic wording device was used to catche the theif on the board? Fokn….if i was SFM id only release my fims in BurkinaFaso or abroad at least they ish ia airTight
@Kin, if she is going to gross as much in Burkina Faso as you suggest which i pretty much doubt, there will be copies circulating there already. Both director and the board needs to work together to ensure movie makers revenue streams are not compromised.
let me ask if u haveever seen a Burkinabe film b4 in Gh? no right….that is how i know she can achieve here Hollywood in Africa film release dream….this problem will keep happe.ing in Gh cuz this board is set to investigate only the rumour and not the crime….tell me that this is a sign of a board ready to work with SFM?@dagodfather,
I hope they catch the culprit after the said investigation. Shirley is a hard worker and doesnt deserve that, as a matter of fact no one does.
