Veteran Ghanaian filmmaker and creative arts advocate Socrate Safo has thrown his weight behind creatives aligned with the National Democratic Congress (NDC), calling for unity and support within the sector—regardless of political affiliation.
In an interview with Joy FM’s Kwame Dadzie, Socrate Safo revealed he had reached out to key industry stakeholders with offers to contribute ideas and lend his support to various initiatives aimed at growing the creative arts space.
“I am happy for the creatives in the NDC. Let’s support them. I support them,” he said.
The outspoken filmmaker further disclosed that he personally contacted veteran musician and Chairman of GHAMRO, Rex Omar, to express his eagerness to be involved in the recently launched “Blackstar Experience”—a cultural initiative by NDC-aligned creatives.
“I called Rex Omar and asked why he didn’t invite me to the launch of the Blackstar Experience—because I want to help in any way, with ideas,” Safo explained.
In a move that signals his continued commitment to the film sector, Socrate Safo also shared that he had reached out to actress and producer Kafui Danku, the newly appointed Executive Secretary of the National Film Authority (NFA), offering his insights and ideas to help push the institution forward.
