Joseph Nana Kofi Osei aka Wayoosi talks about his beginning.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, he has been in the movie industry for a long time<\/p>\n
Moreover, the actor spoke about the first ever movie he acted to shoot him to fame and how much he was paid then.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy first time on a movie set, acting with top actors like Agya Koo, Santo, Joojo Robertson, Master Richard and Suzzy Williams. It was in a movie titled \u2018Awieye\u2019. I was dumbfounded and a bit nervous seeing these actors. However, I mustered courage and played my role very well. All the actors clapped for me after my role on set.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Furthermore, he said Master Richard gave him the name. Now the name is a household brand.<\/p>\n
\u201cMaster Richard approached me to feature in his popular television series, Dada Boat. So through Master Richard and featuring in Dada Boat TV series, I got the name WAYOOSI. I received GhC50.00 as pay for the role I played in \u2018Ma Tricki\u2019 movie\u2026 Agya Koo also received GhC200.00 for that same movie.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
