‘A Country Called Ghana’: Lil Win agreed to Ramsey Nouah’s 10-day schedule but rejected mine — Van Vicker

Ghanaian actor Ramsey Nouah

Renowned Ghanaian filmmaker Van Vicker has expressed disappointment with colleague actor and movie producer Kwadwo Nkansah Lil Win.

In an interview with Kumasi-based Hello FM, the famed actor noted that he was initially approached for a one-month role in the film 'A Country Called Ghana' prior to filming.

However, he had to propose a counter offer of ten days due to his academic schedule at the time, which was not accepted.

Van Vicker revealed that to his surprise, Lil Win later called Nigerian actor Ramsey Nouah to do the same ten-day schedule that he had rejected from Van Vicker.

In his words, "As a matter of fact, Fii Frank Garbin called me and said he wanted me to play the role that Ramsey played in that movie. So I wanted to know when we were shooting because I was in school."

"He got back and said the producer needed me for one month. I said one month is too much. What are we filming? You should know that with actors, the more days you require, the higher the fees I will charge, so the earlier you finish, the better."

"So I told him for one month I couldn't do the work because I was in school. I told him what I could do was ten days, and if he could do it in ten days, then I would do the work," Van Vicker explained.

"Later he said the ten days wouldn’t work. Can you believe that later I saw that Ramsey came to do the work? I was tracking the job, and can you believe Ramsey used ten days to do the job?"

"I didn’t say I wasn’t going to do the work at all. I gave a counter-proposal. Even if he had come to negotiate an improvement on the days, he could have reached an agreement. The person they brought also did it in ten days," he said.
