Mavis Adjei addresses Portia Asare's juju claims
In a recent interview with blogger Zionfelix, Mavis Adjei shared that she never experienced any spiritual attacks or witnessed her colleagues use juju during her short-lived run as a movie star in the Kumawood industry in the late 2000s.
She stated that she had a close relationship with Portia Asare and Nana Ama McBrown and sometimes ate their food without having any issues with them.
She said:
"I did not see anything like that when I was in the Kumawood movie industry. I watched her (Portia Asare) interview and mentioned some of us. It was not like that during my time. I could take food from Portia Asare and Nana Ama McBrown, and they would playfully chase me. It was all love at that time."
The Netherlands-based actress noted that she and her colleagues were passionate about the acting business, so they could even work without being paid.
Mavis Adjei said she would not discredit Portia Asare's juju claims as she has not been active in the Kumawood movie industry since she relocated abroad.
She added that Portia Asare's claims might be valid as she is a veteran in the industry and knows the terrain better than most of her colleagues.
She said:
"It was passion. We loved the job to the extent that we would still act in movies without being paid, but I have been out of the industry for a long time. Portia is still in it, so she knows what she is saying. She started long ago, so she knows how the industry was in the past and how it is now, so I won't doubt what she said."
