“People planned against me. They were mostly crew members and producers in the industry. They claimed they will never market my movies. People planned. I was Okomfo Anokye and was supposed to bath in a river. I was supposed to go naked for the scene but I rejected because the movie was going to educate people so I didn’t want to do that.
“I told them it was not professional. Besides Otumfuo Osei Tutu II had already told me to help stop the act. I had been keen against pornography in the industry. Why would people hate me for that?”, he quizzed.
