Rich Jackie Appiah Rejected An Offer Worth GHS 40,000 To Post Three Flyers On Instagram – Movie Producer Reveals

A lot has been said after a video of Jackie Appiah’s plush mansion was shared online.

Some people even started questioning her source of income, with an assertion that acting does not pay much.

On the back of this, a Ghana movie director, Sammy Rasta has revealed how Jackie rejected an offer worth GHS 40,000 to promote three flyers on her Instagram page.

The movie director said in an interview on Power FM which Newshuntermag.com has come across that the renowned actress did not accept the deal when she was approached.

“Personally, I have given Jackie Appiah a deal worth thousands of dollars which she rejected. The amount of money involved is somebody’s brand money for a year. My big man wanted Jackie to post three flyers on her Instagram. Not even with her face. Three posts on her Instagram for three weeks. It couldn’t meet her brand. 5000 dollars for three weeks. She did not accept. I know someone who has accepted a contract that is worth the amount Jackie rejected,” he revealed.

Sammy Rasta argued that the people who are questioning the source of Jackie’s income do not know how rich she is.

“Let nobody deceive you that before you can enter the movie industry, you have to share the bed with someone. Rebranding yourself is very important. Let’s celebrate her. She is one of our own. We should be happy that someone who has worked in the creative industry can achieve what she has achieved. That will let investors realise the creative space is lucrative. But if we make it seem Jackie Appiah cannot afford to build this house then which investor will invest in our industry?” he advised.
On the same issue, Arnold Asamoah-Baidoo, a Ghanaian entertainment pundit and writer jumped to Jackie Appiah’s defence during a discussion on UTV’s United Showbiz program.

“It doesn’t make sense for people to question her source of wealth. It is a disrespect to the creative industry because if you have followed Jackie over the years, I am not sure you can question how she got her money.

“That lady has been acting for years, almost two decades. Let’s also understand the fact that Jackie is among the top earners when it comes to Ghanaian movies.

“Jackie is also very popular in Nigeria and we can say that their market is arguably the biggest in Africa. In Nigeria, they pay well and our actors who made that transition testify that their producers pay well,” he stated.
