Ghanaian celebrities have come under fire from George Quaye for their apathetic and complacent response to actions that endanger their reputation and way of life.
In an interview with Daybreak Hitz, he expressed his dissatisfaction, saying that these celebrities do not succeed in discouraging imposters from using their fame to make money.
When the Food and Drug Authority (FDA) and the Gaming Commission forbade Ghanaian celebrities from promoting alcoholic beverages and sports betting, respectively, Quaye gave an example of how they did nothing.
He added that these celebrities appear careless and lazy when it comes to protecting their reputation and earnings.
“I think Ghanaian artists are lazy when it comes to some things. They are lazy when it comes to things that destroy their brands or take food out of their mouths.

“We were in this country when the FDA told Ghanaian alcoholic beverage brands to go to Nigeria.”
He continued: “We saw it happen; brands from here went to Nigeria to get actors to advertise and they came here to play them for us. Then the Gaming Commission came with a law to ban them from promoting gaming and these artists were still quiet.”
Quaye also emphasized that Ghanaian celebrities lack initiative and show little concern for the world around them. He predicted that they would continue to be silent even if the Ghana Water Company forbade them from using tap water.
“Very soon, Ghana Water Company will tell them if they turn on their taps they will be banned and they will be quiet. They don’t care. Ghanaian celebrities never step up when it is really important,” he noted.
He concluded by saying that celebrities in Ghana don’t often speak up when it matters the most.
