    Renowned actor and playwright Fiifi Coleman has lamented what he calls the longstanding neglect of aged actors in Ghana, describing their plight as a “failed work” by the industry and community.

    In a report by graphic.com.gh, Coleman, speaking at the launch of the Private Actors Welfare Scheme, an insurance initiative aimed at supporting veteran actors, emphasized the need for a sustainable system to care for these aged creatives.

    Coleman highlighted the frequency of public appeals for support when aged actors fall ill or pass away, stressing that this was not just a crisis but a systemic failure.

    “How many times have we seen our colleagues fall sick and watch helplessly as the public rallies to raise funds for their health care?

    “How many funerals have we attended, wondering how those who entertained millions couldn’t afford a dignified farewell?

    “This isn’t just a crisis but a failed work. A failure of an industry to protect its own. A failure of a community to ensure the hands that feed them and built our dreams don’t crumble in despair,” he said.

    He praised veterans like Fred Amugi, Ben Abdallah, and Mawuli Semevor, who paved the way for younger generations and challenged his colleagues to adopt and support aged, sick, or struggling actors.

    The Private Actors Welfare Scheme, a collaboration with Hollard Insurance, aims to secure the future of actors, providing them with financial support and dignity in their old age.
