When a government security agency that handles covert and topnotch operations to protect the nation is sabotaged by an insider and becomes a tool for shady back-door dealings under its leadership, who dares to save its integrity?

This is the theme around the new Ghanaian crime-action movie; “The Agency” set to be premiered on October 1, 2022 at the Silverbird Cinemas (Accra Mall and Westhills Malls) and other theatre halls across the country.

Produced by Cine-God Studios in collaboration with Vascan Studios, the movie features prominent Ghanaian actors and actresses including Oscar Provencal, Prince David Osei, Beverley Afaglo and Salma Mumin.

It primarily projects ‘good over evil’ and is a departure from the usual drama and romantic stories often produced by Ghana’s industry players.

“THE AGENCY” is a thrilling action-packed movie which uses hyper-realistic action design with over 60 percent live practical effect by a 100 percent Ghanaian cast and crew.

At a press launch of the movie, the Director of the movie, Abu Iddris said the main goal of the production was to entertain movie lovers with “something refreshing and out of the ordinary.”

“Fuelled by our absolute passion to make that one film that represents the change the Ghanaian cinema-goer has been waiting for, we are proud to say THE AGENCY movie has a lot of thrills and chills to give the audience more than value for money and to dare skeptics of Ghanaian filmmaker’s potential,” he stated.

More importantly, Mr Iddris said, the movie was expected to inspire Ghanaians to unite against any form of abuse, cruelty and injustice by people entrusted with power.

Mr Ramart assured that his company would pursue more of such genre of movies and appealed to all and sundry to support the Ghanaian movie industry to thrive.

Let your faith in Christ reflect in daily lives …Christians told

Christians have been urged to demonstrate a living faith in Jesus Christ by allowing their confession of Him as Lord and Saviour to reflect in their daily lives.

According to the Kaneshie District Pastor of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, Ghana (EPCG), Rev. Dzidzor Nathaniel Affram, a genuine Christian’s confession should go beyond words and be demonstrated through obedience to God, love for others and service to the Church.

He made the call at the 40th anniversary remembrance service for the late Wesley Kwasi Kwadzo at the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, Ghana, Maranatha Congregation at Awudome Avenui in the Volta Region.

Speaking on the theme, “The Church Built on a Living Confession,” Rev. Affram said life would continually present challenges capable of testing Christians’ faith, making it necessary for believers to hold firmly to their confession that Jesus Christ is Lord.

He explained that accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour required Christians to live according to His teachings, stressing that their faith must be evident in their conduct.

“A living confession listens to God and not man,” he said, urging Christians to remain obedient to God even when faced with difficulties and pressures.

Rev. Affram further encouraged the congregation to care for vulnerable people and demonstrate concern for others, adding that such acts were practical expressions of Christian faith.

He also urged Christians to identify and use their God-given gifts to build the Church.

He said every member of the Church had a role to play and cautioned Christians against looking down on others because of their status or abilities.
