Stop "nonsense" and learn from Ghanaian President – Nigerian actor to Nigerian government | General entertainment

The popular Nigerian actor Nollywood, Joseph Chidi Okechukwu, congratulated the Ghanaian president for what he called Nana Akufo-Addo's daring step when he watched the French President, Emmanuel Macron, and told him face truth.

President Akufo-Addo firmly stated that Africa needed to change its relations with Europe if it wanted to become self-sustaining and exploit rich resources that could transform the continent.

"Africa and Europe are natural partners … but [it’s] a relationship that must be different from what we have had so far, "said Nana Akufo-Addo on Thursday, July 11, 2019 following discussions with her French counterpart, Emmanuel Macron.

His remarks were made in a speech to 400 representatives of the African diaspora in France gathered at the Elysee Palace in Paris. "These relationships have enriched Europe, but not Africa, so we need to change that dynamic and we can only do it ourselves, by taking the steps that we need for our future" said Akufo-Addo.

"We need to come out of the idea that there is a Santa who will come to develop our continent for us.There is no Santa Claus, there is only us. ", did he declare.

"So, Mr. President, we are saying that the time has come for us to take our destiny in hand," he said, speaking directly to Macron.

However, the Nollywood actor, reacting to the Akufo-Addo-Macron pledge, said the Ghanaian leader has become his hero and a father he's never had, for such a bold step.

"Sir, I want you to know today that you have officially become my hero, I do not know if that tells you anything, but I just want you to know … because I do not say that to About a lot of people.For the first time in my life, I felt like someone was supposed to be my father.When I heard you talking to the French president, I felt like you were supposed to be my father, "said King Joe Okechukwu in a viral video. .

According to him, in some parts of the video, "I tried as much as possible to wake up my Nigerian people." I tried to tell them that we had just returned to a terrible situation of colonialism, but the kind nonsense that is We continue to live in Nigeria where the colonial masters are crunching again.All these villains, our colonial patterns, our ideologies and our actions of the past have all returned to Nigeria and the people are not even aware .
