Maybe just maybe he should have simply spoken in Ga or Hausa with a translator to make things even more exciting. Whether you like it or not, as good as he is now and has gotten, he could wind up in KUMAWOOD, if we don't groom him. He would always have an accent, but it needs to be polished instead of this raw rash nasty Twi-for-life attitude Ghanaians have embraced of late. It has ruined our educational system and our ability to be civil and act intelligently. Y'all need to get off your lowly esteem and mediocre complexes and face the realities of life and the globe. If you want to be local and die in Kumawood fine, but don't pretend that his charisma outside the movie role he got is gonna get him anywhere. We need to invest in his fresh ability and nurture it instead of this false Ghanaian-pride of thinking our backward village life and Twi yapping can compete globally.

Are we naturally slaves or we are just stupid country with stupid people, no wonder we're where we are.This little talented and intelligent boy won the award bcos of the skill and the performance he demonstrated as a young actor, he wasn't invited there to show the audience and organizers how he can speak English JEEEZE for fuck sake but to exhibit exactly who he's but not to go there try to fake his accent dammmmn he would have been laughing stock faking and pretending to be somebody that he's not
eeeiiii awauradi kuro foon paa nie Ghana ,loo the mindset and the mentality of some brothers and sisters make some of us feel so ashamed that to be Ghanaians.

until we start believing who we are and show the rest of the world what we can do we will never develop

This young boy have added something special to our entertainment or the film industry and he should be applauded. If he's a Chinese, German or even Indian do u think somebody will even think about the nonsense some idiots are pestering around???? The answer is BIG NO

The same stupidity that's making us stagnant is the same stupidity some are championing. Until people free their mind from mental slavery and the ideology that being educated has to be one's fluency in English, then we will continue to see such grandeur display of foolishness. Maybe these guys should travel a little to understand the reality of life. How many of these critics can speak fluently their native language. It's a pity to be so proud of speaking fluently another man's language even though practically these critics are nothing but losers. Stop the hate, stop pulling him down. Don't be a weapon of destruction to your own kind. The stupidity should end!

Ghanaians expose their African Sickness(access or english) to the World.The accent they talk about is non of the criterion for judgment and has nothing to do with performance which won him the recognition and the prize he deserved. I admired him. Hollow PhD's(Dr)and long English is not what is required at the Oscars. Jealous criticism from his own people instead of praise.Shame.I listened to the program and do not see anything wrong with his accent or whatever.
Congratulations,Abraham Attah;and more grease to your elbows.Jealousy will send "Skinpain" Ghanaian to their grave!.
