Ghanaian media personality Nana Aba Anamoah has argued that actress and television host Nana Ama McBrown deserves to be included among the public figures who have been granted diplomatic passports by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The government has recently been applauded for its decision to issue diplomatic passports to selected celebrities who, through their platforms, project Ghana positively to international audiences.
In a viral video, Nana Aba explained that the Onua Showtime host has had a significant impact both locally and abroad. The founder of the Women of Valour initiative highlighted McBrown’s ability to influence lives and her commitment to promoting Ghanaian culture through the use of local languages in media.
My pick would have been Nana Ama McBrown easily because Nana Ama wields a certain power in the diaspora. For Ghanaians abroad, she is loved across the world in the Ghanaian communities, and you cannot underestimate her impact. So I think there should have been a representation from that sector, the local language speakers. So it does not look like only those who speak English…There should be local language representation, like Wiyaala, so it does not look too elitist
Her comments have sparked mixed reactions on social media.
