I once turned down a juicy endorsement offer from a political party although I was broke - Adjetey Anang
Celebrated Ghanaian actor, Adjetey Anang has opened up on how he once turned an offer to do the bidding of a political party.
According to him, even though he was “broke” at the time and the offer was juicy, he had to say no to the political party.
The revelation was made in a book authored by the movie star and educator at a star-studded event held at the prestigious Sky Box Event Center, Saturday, July 8, but he refused to name the particular political party.
“...on another occasion, I was approached by a political party in which I had many friends, to endorse the campaign of their flagbearer,” Anang said in the book, adding: “I was broke, the monetary reward was tempting, and all I needed to do was a few minutes of endorsement and my troubles would be over!”
The trans-generational creative arts personality said he disclosed it to his wife.
“I discussed it with Elom and she also saw the prospect of an escape from our financial difficulties,” he said, indicating, without explanation, however, that: “I politely declined the offer and went on with my hustle.”
The memoir, Adjetey Anang: A Story of Faith, Imperfection, and Resilience, delves into Anang's personal journey, offering a candid account of his struggles with fame, infidelity, and the subsequent redemption of his marriage.
The launch of the book attracted an array of notable personalities from the entertainment, media, and business industries. Also in attendance were political gurus and members of the clergy who gathered to celebrate Mr Anang's literary work.
The event was a perfect blend of glitz and substance, as guests mingled, shared anecdotes, and discussed the profound themes explored in Mr Anang's book.
During the event, Adjetey Anang, alias Pusher, took the stage to express his gratitude to his wife, family, and friends for their unwavering support throughout his journey.
He emphasised the importance of open communication, self-reflection, and the willingness to change for personal growth.
