An official statement from the movie producers shared by Kafui Danku indicated that the movie had already sold 2,154 tickets.

Freedom and Justice is set to be premiered on Kobiranafilms.com today, April 2.

Away from the movie, a beautiful 12-year-old Ghanaian girl named Veronique Nayra Dagadu-Gokah who kept her natural hair for seven years in school has been suddenly asked to trim it down.

Narrating the development to YEN.com.gh, Veronique's uncle Frank Atsu Agbavor and mother Lois Penu mentioned that the young girl was emotionally drained as a result of the declaration.

It is also indicated that Veronique has always been the number one in her class for a long time with her natural hair on, which is why the new directive was found troubling.
