I don’t believe there is Juju in the movie industry – Kofi Adjorlolo

Veteran
Ghanaian
actor
Kofi
Adjorlolo
has
stirred
conversation
by
stating
that
he
does
not
believe
in
the
existence
of
“juju”
in
the
movie
industry.

In
an
interview
with
Nana
Baffour,
Adjorlolo
confidently
dismissed
claims
that
supernatural
forces,
commonly
known
as
“juju,”
are
influencing
the
success
or
failure
of
individuals
in
the
Ghanaian
film
industry.

His
remarks
come
in
the
context
of
ongoing
discussions
where
several
actors
and
industry
players
have
shared
experiences
suggesting
the
presence
of
spiritual
attacks
within
the
entertainment
space.

Adjorlolo,
a
respected
figure
in
both
the
Ghanaian
and
Nigerian
movie
scenes,
emphasized
that
he
has
never
encountered
such
issues
throughout
his
long-standing
career.

He
also
suggested
that
claims
of
juju
are
likely
exaggerated
or
based
on
personal
misconceptions.

This
perspective
stands
in
contrast
to
what
some
actors
have
recently
shared,
including
high-profile
stars
like
Yvonne
Nelson
and
Kalybos,
who
have
publicly
talked
about
their
experiences
with
supposed
juju
attacks
while
working
on
movie
sets.

Adjorlolo’s
comments
reflect
a
growing
divide
in
the
industry,
with
some
firmly
believing
in
supernatural
interference
while
others,
like
him,
view
it
as
a
myth
or
psychological
perception.

Entertainment
pundits
like
Arnold
Asamoah-Baidoo
have
also
suggested
that
such
claims
may
be
rooted
in
psychological
factors
rather
than
real
mystical
occurrences,
further
fueling
this
ongoing
debate.

Kofi
Adjorlolo’s
stance
highlights
his
confidence
in
relying
on
talent,
hard
work,
and
professionalism
as
key
to
success
in
the
industry,
challenging
others
to
move
away
from
such
beliefs.
