Ghanaian boy-actor paid $30,000 for featuring in Hollywood movie returns to streets as coconut seller

Emmanuel Nii Adom Quaye popularly known as Strika in the Hollywood movie, ‘Beast of No Nation’, has reappeared in the spotlight on social media after a hiatus of many months. While his fellow actor Abraham Attah rose to international prominence, Strika has been struggling to make progress as his career is of concern.

He has occasionally been in the news for not being able to make good use of the fame he got from starring in the international movie, ‘Beast of No Nation’

Well, the young actor has once again been spotted in a new video selling coconut in a wheelbarrow. In the video, the born star has to push a wheelbarrow containing coconut for his daily bread.

This is not the first time the young actor has been spotted on the streets in Accra. In 2018, entertainment journalist, Caleb Nii Boye saw him in town and led the charge to get him off the streets.

In a report sighted on Ghana weekend.com Strika revealed his managers had not given him an amount of $30,000 which was paid to him by the producers of the ‘Best of No Nation’.

Strika in an interview said he would rather learn a trade than go back to the classroom.

Further reports from the headteacher of the Cape Coast Montessori also said he was engaged in drugs at that time and was recalcitrant.
