Unofficial
reports placed three strong Ghanaian actresses, Yvonne Okoro, Lydia Forson and
Ama K. Abebrese among faces to look out for at this year’s African Movie
Academy Awards in Nigeria.
She
is currently Ghana’s only hope for the acting aspect of the movie industry.
With her role in The Contract, she is
competing with Florence Masebe (‘Elelwani’), Mariam Ouedraogo (‘Moi
Zaphira’), Rita Dominic (‘The Meeting’), Mbutung Seikeh (‘Ninah’s
Diary’) and Flora Suya (‘Last Fishing Boat’).
Shirley is likely to make her first appearance at the AMAAs, years after her movies picked an award at the ceremony, which is described as Africa’s Oscars.
