Attempts to malign me will not work - Agya Koo

Agya Koo Agya Koo

Isaac Rockson, Film Director cum Communications Strategist for ace actor Alexander Kofi Adu has described comments by his fellow director, Frank Fiifi Gharbin, that Agya Koo is the most arrogant actor in Ghana as unfortunate.

Reacting to the comment, Isaac Rockson slammed Gharbin for making such an unguided statement.

He categorically described Frank Ghabin as the cheapest director in the industry.

''he can never compare his one way directing to Agya Koo’s competence''

"I can assure you that any attempts to malign the hard-won reputation of Agya Koo will never work". Isaac Rockson made this remarks on Ashh fm Entertainment Zone after confusion broke between Agya Koo and film director Frank Fiifi Gharbin.

"The legacy that Agya Koo has built in the industry is indisputable; he needs to be celebrated rather than attacking his persona".

He further threw verbal punches at the modus-operandi of members of the Film Producers Association of Ghana (FIPAG) and Ghana Actors Guild describing them as the most useless entities in the film industry.

According to him, the Ghana Actors Guild and the Film Producers Association have lost its relevance.

He explained further that, "it’s clear that FIPAG and Actors Guild are not working for the improvement of the film industry," adding that, the two associations lack proper structures and competence in controlling the affairs of the industry.

Rockson cited an instance when his client (Agya Koo) was sidelined by producers in Ghana, and the guild did not even issue a statement to support him.

"Inasmuch as they are trying to bring sanity into the industry, they are rather bringing psychosis because they are not doing it the right way".

Rockson insisted that what the two associations are doing now is not helpful.
