Funeral Of Ex-Prez Mills...Socrates Fights Minister Over GH�100

The Chief Executive of Movie Africa Productions, Socrates Sarfo, is up in arms against Abla Dzifa Gomashie, Deputy Minister for Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts over matters relating to the funeral of Professor John Evans Atta Mills of blessed memory. Mr. Sarfo complained that after more than a year since the death of former president Atta Mills, a group of actors hired by government to perform as part of his funeral activities, have still not been paid. He said the actors, numbering about 200, were hired to perform in Accra and Cape Coast, hometown of the ex-president, with an agreement that they would be given an amount of GH�100 each for both performances. He said the money has since not been paid and all attempts to get it have proved futile.
