Dear sir / madam

 

Ikecrotec Media Pro. In Collaboration with Ministry Of Tourism & Ghana Tourist Board Initiative

 

Ikecrotec Ventures is a three-in-one company. Ikecrotec Media Production, the media section of our firm was set up in 2007 by Rev. Isaac Asomah-Sarpong. Ikecrotec firmly believes an aggressive educational and informational but entertaining approach should be taken consciously and consistently to challenge the youth to enjoy a secured future.

We have produced a feature film titled GH @ five ‘O’ which depicts evil vices such as Armed Robbery, Mobile phone snatching, Car hijacking, Ritual murder, Drug Trafficking etc, which are engulfing the nation.

It was first premiered at the National Theatre and was rated as one of the best, ever made movies as far as Ghanaian movies are concerned. It features well known artists such as Seth Karikari “Koo Fori” (of Efie Wura) and Omar Sheriff Captan. Media Houses such as Graphic showbiz, P&P, Fylla entertainment, Splash entertainment published the event. Based on the factual act and how educative the movie is, we were applauded by the Former Director of TV (GTV) Mr. Charles Kofi Bucknor and the Former Acting Director General, Yaw Owusu Addo (GTV), after screening the movie.

We’ve carried out a research which indicates that about 362 mobile phone crime cases were reported within 3 months; 25 were killed, 56 were butchered, armed robbery, ritual killing, 8 persons believed to be serial killings. A fake man of God recently drowned 2 women at the Weija River etc.

Statistics from the Ghana Tourist board indicate that, there has been a decline in tourist inflow into the country due to the increasing rate of crimes in the country in association with the unscrupulous publications (negative) that some Ghanaians post on the internet about safety issues in the country.

Most Ghanaians are really confused, they think the country is no longer a safer land or a place to live because if a policeman or a law-enforcement officer with a gun were to be killed without a trace then what of individuals like us! Most people are scared to use their phones in public, internet cafes, shopping malls, churches, petrol stations and clubs. Most entertainment places for tourists close as early as 7pm (19:00_GMT). The big question is “Who is safe?” we are all eligible victims.

 

Therefore we believe that campaigning through the media by airing it will:

v  Have a positive impact on peoples’ lives,

v  Reduce crime waves in Ghana,

v  Portray the negative effects of such crimes.

v  Generally make Ghanaians adopt a positive and intelligent attitude towards each other and their future

v  Enable Ghanaians to appreciate securities and invest for a secured future

v  To boost tourism and its related economic ties

 

The motive of the producer of the GH @ five ‘O’ documentary/movie is to:

Ø  Create a generation of law abiding citizens.

Ø  Contribute our portion towards safe-guarding our society.

Ø  Instill discipline in the decision making process and focus on the potentials of the youth with respect to their future perspectives.

Ø  Change the lives of such culprits.

Ø  Create awareness of the risks involved in lawlessness.

Ø  Aid in curbing the rampant influx of criminals and acts of lawlessness.

 

Rev. Isaac Asomah-Sarpong, the Producer/Director, produced the documentary/movie not for mass distribution and retailing purposes.
