We Can’t Brand Ourselves Local Artistes And Expect International Recognition -Juliet Ibrahim

Awards-wining actress and producer, Juliet Ibrahim has called on Ghanaian entertainers to step out of their comfort zones and re-brand themselves and look beyond Ghana if they want more international recognition.

According to her,until this happens, Ghanaian entertainers/artistes will continue to go unnoticed when it comes to International events.

Juliet’s wake up call comes on the back of calls by some artistes and entertainment pundits on Parliament to promulgate a law that will ensure that events held in Ghana will have Ghanaian artistes dominating during Prime-time performances.

Juliet Ibrahim is of the believe that most artistes/entertainers in Ghana do not look beyond Ghana. This she noted has been their bane.

Ghanaian artistes shld step out of their comfort zones & expand their horizons.Only a few has been able to do this & those few are d ones who’ll keep taking our country’s flag higher”.

She further called on Ghanaians to appreciate their own.

“So, bottom line, there’s a time for everything. Maybe this is a wake up call for Ghanaian artistes/Entertainers and Ghana as a whole to wake up and start rebranding and appreciating their own. Let’s stop complaining and use our energy to do the right thing to be valued accordingly” She added.
