Prince David Osei is a scene from zombie war movie "The Dead". Popular Ghanaian actor Prince David Osei and I met at the 9th Africa Movie Academy Awards (AMAA) held last weekend in Yenagoa, capital of Bayelsa State in the Niger Delta of Nigeria. He was the toast of the red carpet as his fans were shouting and wolf-whistling his name at the Ox-Bow Lake boat regatta and traditional wrestling event in the morning and also later in the evening for the main awards last Saturday. Most of them were girls and women who posed for pictures with him and one pretty actress from the University of Benin asked me for his contact details.

He told me that his best international movie so far is "The Dead", a 2010 zombie war thriller that is a must see for anyon...
