Ghanaian actor and filmmaker Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly known as LilWin, has issued a strong warning to television stations across the country, threatening legal action against any channel that will air his movies without obtaining the appropriate rights.

Speaking in a video shared on social media, the actor declared that any station found guilty of illegally broadcasting his productions would be sued for damages, insisting that “no form of apology” would save offenders.

“If by any mistake whatsoever, your TV station airs any of our new movies without the appropriate rights and accreditation, I will deal with you. That station in question, whether or not you know me or you’re related to me in any way, you’re in trouble. We have given this warning before; this is not the first time,” he warned

LilWin explained that his frustration stems from the current state of Ghana’s movie industry, which he believes is struggling to regain its footing.

“Not too long ago, I said the Ghanaian movie industry is getting weak, and we are all praying that it gets back on its feet again so that our veteran mothers and fathers can get back to acting, make some money, feed themselves and be happy,” he said.

According to him, filmmakers have continued producing new movies despite the industry’s challenges and have repeatedly appealed to television stations to support their efforts by purchasing the broadcast rights.

“That is why we are fighting to continue shooting so that the private sector can also help us because one person can’t do it,” he said. “We appealed to TV stations in Ghana to help us by airing our movies to their viewers.”

The actor lamented that while some broadcasters have embraced the appeal, many continue to rely on decades-old productions instead of supporting new Ghanaian films.

“Some of these TV stations have been showing old movies that date back 15 and 20 years. We encouraged you to come and buy the rights to some of the new ones so your viewers can also be happy and know that the Ghanaian movie industry is still alive,” he stated.

LilWin acknowledged that television stations are not obligated to purchase his productions but maintained that airing them without permission would have serious consequences.

“We can’t force you to buy and air our new movies, but if by any mistake whatsoever your station airs any of our new movies without the appropriate rights and accreditation, I will deal with you,” he reiterated.

He concluded with an even stronger warning, saying, “I swear no form of apology will save you. We will sue you for damages, and we will not reduce the amount.”
