Veteran actress and television presenter Grace Omaboe, popular known as
Maame Dokono has disclosed that since she joined politics in 2008, she
couldn’t secure roles in movies which in turn destroyed her acting
career.
Maame Dokono, who had become a household name some years past said she
made good use of her season by acting and hosting so many programmes
which impacted the lives of many people before participating actively in
politics.
Maame Dokono was of the opinion that public figures should not be
vilified for engaging in politics or supporting political parties
openly.
The veteran actress made these revelations in an interview on UTV’s
entertainment news programme disclosing the challenges she has been
facing in her career.
She advised movie producers to go beyond personalities and pick people
who cut out perfectly for roles they desire in their movies.
“In Nigeria, old men and women are given roles as old people but in
Ghana we have young people playing such roles. We are all around and we
don’t charge too much so they can come for our assistance,” Maame Dokono advised.
