Popular TV presenter Amanda
Jissih on Wednesday, 25 February 2015 gave a lecture at the Abbeam University
also known Abbeam Institute of Technology.
The old girl of Mfantsiman Girls' Secondary School
in her talk gave account of her journey through the showbiz industry as a
former radio presenter and currently a TV presenter, actress and musician.
Amanda Jissih sharing her success
story with students of the school said it was not achieved on a silver platter.
She added that some of her colleague public figures went through hell but with
determination and hard work, we see them today as persons who have never
suffered in life.
The former Hitz FM drive time
host revealed that some celebrities live a certain lifestyle just to please the
public but not according to what they earn. According to her, Ghanaians see a
public figure as a rich person so needs to live an extraordinary life.
“People ask for loans and if you
don’t get it for them, they become your enemies because every day they see you
change clothes and they think it is always well. It is only well because we are
hoping that it will be well by God’s grace but not because we have fat amount
of money somewhere.”
“I wake up in the morning, walk
out and wash my car. The fame is big but how much do you earn for you to hire a
house help, you just have to do everything yourself. You even end up blessing
yourself when you do all these things”
She named Nana Ama Mcbrown and other
celebrities as public figures who are rich but are down to earth. She said told
that students that “there are lots of celebrities who are doing that, don’t let
the fame eat into your mind so much, it will destroy you”
“I’m not telling you lies, fame
is good but it can destroy you”
Abbeam Institute of Technology
located in Kasoa is a non-for-profit organisation, a Ghanaian private higher
institution of learning established in 2010 by the Chancellor Prof. Abbeam
