Ghanaian actor and content creator, Jeffery Nortey, has shared his sense of pride and fulfilment in using the Ga language in his comedy skits as a way of promoting and preserving the Ga culture.
Speaking in an interview with Channel One TV, Jeffery Nortey explained that although he is widely known for his creative skits, what brings him the most satisfaction is being able to use the platform to showcase the beauty of the Ga language.
He said he believes it is his way of giving back to the Ga community and helping to preserve its cultural identity.
“I know I have been doing skits, but I find some fulfillment in it. This is because I am projecting the Ga Language, which is everything to me,” Jeffery Nortey stated.
He added that if he were to pass away today, he would feel proud knowing that he made a meaningful contribution to the growth of the Ga community through his content.
“At least if I am called by my maker, I can say that I have contributed my quota to the growth of the Ga Community,” he said.
Jeffery Nortey also spoke about his journey in the acting industry, noting that it wasn’t something that happened through any lucky break.
According to him, it was a childhood dream he worked hard to pursue over the years, even though some of the films he featured in didn’t receive widespread attention.
“There was no light bulb moment for me in my acting career. It is something I have been wanting to do since I was a child, and I have featured in many movies, which perhaps are not popular,” he shared.
