Who are you? - Watch the heated exchange between A Plus and Socrate Safo on TV

Entertainment pundit and politician Kwame A Plus engaged in a heated argument with veteran film producer Socrate Safo over the New Patriotic Party (NPP) 's promise to allocate funds to producers for their projects.

During the debate, Socrate countered actress Christiana Awuni's assertion that the NPP administration failed to disburse the funds, stating that the National Film Authority (NFA) did provide money to certain producers.

Socrate specified that some producers received 80,000 euros. However, Ola Michael intervened, claiming that the funds did not come from the government but rather from a grant from an international source.

A Plus, a panellist on the program, accused Socrate of spreading misinformation. This led to a fiery altercation between the two.

During UTV's United Showbiz, hosted by MzGee on June 29, 2024, Socrate made a controversial statement: "Assessing the creative arts sector's impact, you didn't receive any funds because you're not producers. Verify with the NFA regarding their support for producers; some received 80,000 euros."

Questioning the truthfulness of his statement, he added, "Am I lying? The funds are grants from overseas, facilitated by whom, if not the NFA? My friend, leave."

After Ola Michael refuted Socrate's claim, A Plus retorted in Twi, accusing Socrate of deceit. "You attempted to lie and were caught. You've been caught regarding the NFA's alleged 80,000 euro distribution to producers. You're dishonest. Who are you to order me away?

"Feel free to depart. Don't feign irritation. I must correct him; such behaviour won't be tolerated again. Don't address us as if we're your children; I'm more educated than you. What are you capable of?"

Meanwhile, the NFA has not confirmed whether the funds provided to producers were governmental or from an international entity.
