Kumawood star Matilda Asare bags Master’s degree from KNUST

Ghanaian Kumawood actress and producer Matilda Asare has officially graduated from the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) with a Master of Science degree in Management and Human Resource Strategy.

Photos circulating on social media captured the actress beaming with smiles as she proudly donned her graduation gown at the ceremony held at the KNUST campus in Kumasi.

According to Matilda, her decision to further her education was driven by a desire to strengthen her management and strategic skills.

“I completed my first degree in 2011 at Baptist University College. I studied Human Resources and Management. I was in school while I was actively involved in filmmaking, but people didn’t know.

“I had to pause several times because of work, raising kids, and family responsibilities. But I never gave up on going back to complete what I started,” she said.

“I felt it was necessary to learn more about management and other things because I am now moving into producing movies,” she added in a report by myjoyonline.com.

A household name in Ghana’s film industry, Matilda launched her acting career in 2007. She has starred in several popular Kumawood productions, including Secret Rival, Ghana Police, and Kenkenkwa, and was named Best Actress (Comedy) at the Kumawood and Akoben Movie Awards in 2013.

Beyond acting, she is the CEO of ZionTrain Productions and led projects such as Heroes of Africa, which won International Film of the Year at the Black Star International Film Festival in 2020.

Her graduation ceremony was graced by notable figures from the entertainment industry, including Rev. Samuel Nyamekye of Miracle Films, Apostle John Prah, and director Jones Agyeman.
