Ghanaian creator Seddy Nam has stated that she deliberately turns down requests from her fans who want to know every detail of her craft on social media.
According to Seddy, she is not oblivious of the expectations from fans to disclose behind-the-scenes information about her work, but mystery is necessary for her to protect her brand.
“When you overshare now, what’s there to share? If I share everything today, what will I share tomorrow? I want to be mysterious and it takes away a bit of suspense," she said in an interview on TV3’s The Ladies Circle aired on July 13 2025.
For her, she is abituary questioning content creators who share every bit of the lives to fans on social media.
“It’s really surprising when I see things like that because I feel like why are you telling us everything? Putting everything on social media and like I said, it has advantages and disadvantages. It’s different if you’re trying to share your experiences with us and you want us to learn from it, then it makes sense.”
Meanwhile, actress and media personality Naa Ashorkor Mensah-Doku has been advocating for content creators to present a positive portrayal of Africa on the global stage.
Emphasising the importance of narrating genuine African stories free from Western influences, she shared these sentiments during a podcast-style conversation at the Africa’s Business Heroes event in Kigali, Rwanda, on November 23.
With a rich background in creative content creation, including over 200 live shows, Naa Ashorkor stressed the need for a deliberate approach to showcasing African culture.
She recommended the inclusion of African elements such as clothing, hairstyles, and local languages to enhance the global relatability of content.
Encouraging content creators to utilise platforms like TikTok and YouTube, she urged them to disseminate these stories on a global scale.
“Content is global. If I put content on TikTok in Ghana, someone in China will be watching it, and it is an opportunity for me to expose who Africans and Ghanaians are," she said.
The broadcast journalist urged content creators to “understand that what we have is gold. The best shows about humanity and culture are in Africa. The best stories are told in Africa and we must tell them ourselves.”
“It is about humanity and the wealth in our stories. Create TikTok videos about African stories and tell our stories better because African stories are best told by Africans.”
