Hatred, juju led to the decline of Kumawood – Portia Asare

Ghanaian Kumawood actress Portia Asare Boateng has shed light on the significant challenges facing the Kumawood movie industry.

According to her, the decline of the Kumawood movie industry was due to internal conflicts and spiritual sabotage.

In an interview with Ahodwo TV, she discussed the negative impact of hatred and lack of unity among colleagues, which she said led to a decrease in both the production and quality of Kumawood films.

“People are asking why Kumawood is dead, it is because of hatred! People are using spiritual means to sabotage their colleagues instead of loving and supporting each other,” she said.

Portia Asare Boateng recounted personal experiences of being targeted by some of her colleagues in the industry.

She described how people she trusted used spiritual attacks to undermine her progress.

“People I used to eat with, people I trusted were among those who tried to destroy me using witchcraft.

“I was shocked. If you kill me, you won’t replace me. Your work is different from someone else work. So why are you doing this?” she said.

However, she chose not to name specific individuals involved in these actions.

Her candid revelations have sparked reactions from Kumawood movie lovers, who expressed their sadness over the industry’s decline.
