Yvonne Nelson ‘exposes’ FIPAG; Speaking of her ban, Jackie Appiah’s role…
In 2010, Yvonne Nelson was banned by the Flim Producers Association of Ghana (FIPAG) after she refused to participate on set. In an exclusive interview with Onua FM, he explained the events that led to the ban while explaining the involvement of Jackie Appiah. He also revealed that apart from Majid Micheal, none of his friends stood with him.
“Why do I want to join a group of people who banned me? A young girl. I was about 24 years old when they did it to me. What did they gain from doing that to me? So why did I, Yvonne Nelson, go and join FIPAG.
Telling the story behind the ban, Yvonne Nelson said that at the time she was a student pursuing an acting career. He told me that he had been on set twice without shooting a scene because Jackie Appiah was not on set when he missed class. So on the third day, he decided to go to school instead of going to the set.
Yvonne Nelson also recounted the meeting with FIPAG executives where the ban was made official. He described the meeting as, “It’s like I can’t wait to destroy it.”
“One person I will never forget when I met Majid was Idikoko. I can’t believe that the person I worshiped and idolized as a young girl had an ad so angry because he couldn’t wait to hear that I had been banned. It broke me,” Yvonne Nelson told Anigye Mmre.
Yvonne Nelson also said that only Majid Micheal stood up for her, saying no one, not even actresses or producers, lobbied for the ban to be lifted.
