Veteran Ghanaian Actor, Fred Amugi has observed that acting in Ghana more lucrative comparably to when he joined the trade decades ago.

According to the veteran movie actor, now, actors and actresses are paid for their worth as compared to the early days when they were paid meagre sums of money or sometimes not at all after being featured in movies.

He noted that his generation of actors worked for the passion of the job and not because the venture was a lucrative one and only had fame but was broke financially
