LEGACY AFRICA premieres in Accra: A bold call for youth to redefine leadership

The much-anticipated film LEGACY AFRICA premiered in Accra on Friday, August 29, 2025, with simultaneous screenings at Silverbird Cinema inside the Accra Mall and the Silverbird facility at West Hills Mall.

More than just a film, LEGACY AFRICA positions itself as a mirror held up to the continent, placing Africa at the heart of its narrative. It portrays a land of immense potential but still burdened by deep-rooted challenges.

At its core is a critique of leadership, exposing how some leaders misuse political power for personal enrichment while neglecting the needs and aspirations of their citizens.

The film, however, goes beyond exposing corruption. It challenges Africa’s youth—the next generation of leaders—to redefine leadership and resist the view of politics as a gateway to wealth. Instead, it urges young people to harness political influence as a force for good: to confront poverty, inequality, and underdevelopment, and to build a continent anchored in accountability, innovation, and service to its people.

Released at a time when conversations on governance, youth empowerment, and Africa’s future are gaining urgency, LEGACY AFRICA seeks to serve not just as entertainment but as a catalyst for change—a reminder that the destiny of the continent rests on the decisions its young leaders will make.

The film features Dr. Robert Peprah Gyamfi, Patrick Koomson, Joseph Baafi, Cherry Akosua Agyapongmaa, Nana Kay Abrantie, Mrs. Edna Aryetey, Kingsley Kwamina, Ayew Yamoah, Vicky Zugah, Ofori Cindy, Queen Doe Kuglo, Emmanuel Appiah, Naya Pratt, Nii Global Sackey, and Firdaws Alhassan.

It was produced by Dr. Peprah Gyamfi and directed by Confidence Losu.
