Veteran Ghanaian broadcaster, Mike Eghan has revealed how he maneuvered his way to have access to entertainment during his youthful days.
He explains that at the time, his dad was a “Christian who forbade certain things in life” and as such he was limited with entertainment.
He, however, shared that since he loved the movies, he had no choice than to go there with the camouflage of going for choir practice.
Speaking to Rev. Erskine on the Y Leaderboard Series, “The Magnificent Emperor” disclosed, “When I wanted to go the movies, I will enroll as a chorister and skip in between to go to the movies”.
Mike added that he always admired some movie stars in the past including Elizabeth Taylor.
