Omar Sheriff the one favored darling boy on the sets of Ghanaian movies like Ramsey Nuah and co to Nigerians
He had over the years appeared in movies such as Dark Sands and Outrage, but for some unknown reasons the actor disappeared in 2013 and the grapevine had it that he left the television industry for good.
Time flies as they say and is already 2024 and bang here is Omar like he never left.
In an interview with Graphic Showbiz during the showcase of Latif Abubakar’s play ‘The Licence’, Omar dispelled rumors that he had quit acting.
“It’s not true that I quit acting. I was still actively involved in movies. Just that during the period, I decided not to be in front of the cameras but rather be behind them. Instead of being an actor, I worked as a cameraman that’s why people weren’t seeing me.
“As a cameraman, my work took me to many countries so I was traveling around the world to shoot productions in places such as Kenya, and Tanzania among others but I’m back to my first love. It feels so good to be back in the spotlight again. The response has been convincing that I’ve been missed,” he said.
He added that he’s open to both acting and working behind the scenes as needed.
“If the need arises, I’ll still go behind the scenes and also shoot as an actor at the same time. So I’m multi-tasking as a performer and also a crew member,” he added.
