Martha Ankomah Schools Investors On How They Can Make Money Through Building Of Cinemas

Ghanaian actress, Martha Ankomah has called on businessmen in the country to invest in cinemas.

She asserted that building cinemas will give them huge returns than building apartments for rent.

“I see people building apartments all over and you don’t see people living in it. Why don’t we use it to build cinemas? At least it will look like it is a small shopping mall but people will come, watch movies … If you have been going to Nigeria you will know what I am talking about,” she told NEWS-ONE in an interview.

Martha added, “People building apartments and are waiting for white people (foreigners) to come and stay in it but the whites people are not coming. Please build us cinemas. We shoot the movies and show it in your cinemas and you will make your money back.”

According to Martha, “We need people to invest in cinemas and our industry. When you go to Nigeria you see cinemas all over. They are for individual investors. Government has also pumped money into the movie industry in Nigeria but look at us. The TV stations are also part of the problem; showing foreign series. We need to regulate them.”

When she was asked about some investors who were overly milked by movie producers after investing into the movie industry, she said, “When you don’t work with the right people, you end up wrongly. Such people will always milk you.”

She disclosed how the movie industry found its way on her prayer list.

“I have been praying about it for God to change the face of things in the movie industry because I am a Christian,” she revealed.
