President
John Mahama has joined the long list of Ghanaians and other well
wishers abroad commending and encouraging young Ghanaian actor Abraham
Attah, for his strides in the global film industry.
Attah has recently featured prominently
on various global awards stages and picked some nominations and awards
including the best male lead at the Independent Spirit Awards and the Marcello Mastroianni Award for Best Young Actor at the Venice film festival.
The icing on the cake perhaps was the opportunity to present an award at the Oscars. He wore a customized pair of TOM shoes to the event and in return, the company will donate 10,000 pairs to needy children in Ghana.
The move has attracted applause from a cross section of Ghanaians and President Mahama was also impressed.
The President said on Twitter,
“Congrats @AttahNii. Such a positive positioning of the Ghana Brand. We can do with many more Abraham Attah’s. #BeastsOfNoNation”
