Reports
said the bubbly actress’ arrival made the pages of some newspapers.
The
country’s Exclusive newspaper used its front page to celebrate the Ghanaian
actress with a cover-page captioned, ‘Ghanaian Actress In Town’.
It
is Lydia’s first time in Sierra Leone and there is no doubt that she is
enjoying her stay.
Sierra
Leone is described as one of Africa’s developing countries with a unique
tourism attraction.
According
wikipedia.com, it is officially called the Republic of Sierra Leone. It is bordered by Guinea to the
northeast, Liberia to the southeast, and the Atlantic Ocean to the southwest.
Sierra Leone is a constitutional representative democratic republic and covers
a total area of 71,740 km2 (27,699 sq mi).
The
country is divided into four geographical regions: the Northern Province,
Eastern Province Southern Province and the Western Area; which are subdivided
into 14 districts. The country has some good tourism sites but not much is
heard about its movie industry.
Some
media reports from the country say frantic measures are being put in place to
make its movie industry shine in Africa and beyond and also bring some
improvement to the country’s economy.
Lydia
Forson left Ghana for Sierra Leone on Sunday and would be spending weeks on the
set.
