‘Juju’ scare: Frank Naro pulls the breaks on acting
Ghanaian actor cum musician, Frank Osei, affectionately called Frank Naro has disclosed that he has pulled the breaks on acting over some spiritual attacks.
According to him, he would continue his role as a Movie Director, however, the other side of him, which is acting, has been put on hold.
Speaking to The Spectator in an interview, Frank Naro said he arrived at his current decision to stay off from the cameras after some excruciating life experiences, which would have been a different story but for prayers.
According to him, these things came in the form of spiritual attacks and recounted an incident on a set.
“Something happened to me on a movie set at Dodowa, following this, my leg was swollen for a long time. I went to a herbalist and it was revealed to me that a colleague had attacked me spiritually,” he said.
He added that “I was told that I stepped on ‘juju’ on the set, as a result, it created a whole in my leg, which could result in amputating my legs.”
Frank Naro noted that what he had gone through coupled with the experiences of other actors like Wayosi, had scared him.
Currently, he has released a new song dubbed, “Funny Love” which is available on all digital music stores.

Osanju is dead
Popular Ghanaian content creator, Elvis Frimpong, known in showbiz circles as Osanju has been reported dead.
According to sources, he was said to have died in the early hours on Monday, September 1, 2025 after a long battle with blood cancer (Leukemia)
His death has been a shock in the Ghanaian community especially coming shortly after his last post.
His demise comes five months after he had laid his mother, Amounu, also a tiktoker, to rest, having lost her in January.
Hours before his passing, he had posted a video on Sunday with friends watching the Barcelona vs. Rayo Vallecano match, prompting many fans to initially dismiss the reports as a hoax.
Osanju’s death has been described as a huge loss by followers who admired his openness, resilience and positive outlook in the face of ill health.
However, Osanju had previously shared his battle with leukemia, a cancer of the blood, on his TikTok account, even eerily predicting his own demise on a couple of occasions.
