Those born in the late 2000s might not know this, but the late Kojo Dadson was a household name as far as local Ghanaian drama series is concerned.

In his active career days, the late Kojo Dadson paired up with the likes of Rama Brew, Kofi Bucknor, Akorfa Ejeani, Richard Kudovu (Daavi o Daavi), and Grace Nortey among others to bless our screens with back-to-back movie thrillers.

For instance, children and parents all alike were compelled to speed up their house chores as they could not afford to miss their favorite family series ‘Home Sweet Home’ which was usually aired on Fridays immediately after the evening news bulletin.

The late actor who mostly played the role of a disciplined father obviously cannot be forgotten and with nostalgia, we list some popular movies and series he has starred in below.
