Ghana Steps In After Bimbo Ademoye Calls Out Piracy of Her Films
Nigerian actress and filmmaker Bimbo Ademoye has received firm promises from Ghanaian authorities after raising concerns about her movies being aired without permission on local TV stations.
A few weeks ago, Bimbo took to Instagram to express her frustration over the unauthorized broadcasts. She didn’t hold back, calling out stations in Ghana that had been showing her work without a green light.
In a follow-up post on April 22, 2025, she directly tagged two key figures—Ghana’s Minister of Communication, Digital Technology, and Innovation, Sam George, and the National Film Authority’s CEO, Kafui Danku—asking them to step in.

“@kafuidanku ma’am, I hear you’re someone who can stop this,” she wrote plainly.
Their response? Swift and public.
Sam George replied in her comments, saying he had seen the post and would be raising the issue with his fellow minister who oversees TV content in Ghana. He also reassured her that Ghana takes creative rights seriously.
“Our government respects intellectual property, and we’ll make sure the right thing is done,” he wrote. “There’s so much Nigeria and Ghana can do together—we should protect that collaboration.”
Kafui Danku also chimed in, confirming that her team is already working behind the scenes. She promised the actress would soon see real results.

“We’re on it,” she commented. “Expect concrete action in the next few weeks.”
The support came just as Bimbo’s latest project, Broken Hallelujah, has been gaining attention online with glowing reactions from viewers. While the piracy issue is still being ironed out, the actress is staying focused on her craft—and clearly, she’s not afraid to speak up when things aren’t right.
