"How can I destroy an industry that I earn my income from? How could I do that? Infact, it is very sad for people to pass such comments against me because that is my style and even when you go to the developed countries topical issues, words or phrases that become talk of the nation are used by many of their film producers , so what is wrong for me to do same here?’’

Samuel Ofori indicated that some of the industry players lack creativity “ but in the contemporary movies we have to be creative enough and upgrade the industry, so if nobody is ready to do it, am going to do it and nothing can stop me from doing it because it sells in the market ‘’ he added.
