Nollywood popular actor,Hanks Anuku might
have been stranded in Accra,the Ghanaian
capital city if gists about him are anything to
go by.
From our checks,Hanks has been in Ghana
for about 1 month now,without being on
any particular movie set.
When he first came to town,the idea was
that he came for a movie shoot,but since
then,he has not been seen on any set and
no Ghanaian has seized the opportunity of
his being around to get him to feature in
their production like they usually do anytime
a Nollywood star is around.
Since he arrived in Accra,Hanks has been
spotted in various parts of the town like
Osu,Labone,Spintex and Circle.Within his
period of stay,he is said to have been
staying in different hotels.
A source close to him informed that he even
had arguments with the managers of some
of the hotels he had stayed over bills.As at
the time of filing this report,he was staying
at a cheap hotel at Tantra Hills,a suburb of
Accra.
Our sources revealed that when Hanks came
to Accra about a month ago,he came with
his manager,who later left for Nigeria after
they had a disagreement. He later picked a
guy based in Ghana,simply identified as Toni
Can as his manager.
According to our source,the Nigerian
manager came with Hanks with a bid to
make money but the plan turned otherwise
when they could not secure any major
movie deal.
Hanks we gathered however resulted to
some other means to make money.
Some of the things he did include modeling
for some phone retailers at Tip Toe lane
(which could be likened to Computer Village
in Lagos,Nigeria) who paid him some
money.
One of the deals however turned sour last
Tuesday,which resulted in Hanks picking a
street fight with Toni Can,his New Ghanaian
manager.
Both of them were involved in a street fight
over the deal he had with a phone
retailer,HX Mobile Phones,close to Odo Rice
in the Circle area of Accra.
In the last 2 weeks alot of people have been
asking questions as to what exactly Hanks
has been doing in Ghana.Within the last 2
weeks,he has been seen regularly at New
Town area of Accra where he has been
pricing Power Bikes.
The close source also informed us that
Hanks at a time had approached some
agents telling them that he wants an
apartment because he intends to settle in
the city.
Two weeks back,Hanks was also spotted at
the popular Labadi Beach where he was
signing autographs and posing for pictures
with people for money.He came with a
photographer who bills anyone who wants
to pose for a snap with him.Other people
who insisted on taking with him with their
personal cameras were charged higher fees.
As at the time of filing this report,Hanks is
still in Accra and we can confirm that he was
not on any set.
