"I've been offered $20k to stop filming my Ibrahim Traore biopic": Lil Win

Lil Win's Ibrahim Traore Movie Faces Opposition: "I've Been Offered $20k to Stop Filming"

Actor Lil Win has revealed attempts to stop his film about Ibrahim Traore. He shared a video showing an envelope full of cash he received from a Ghanaian public leader. He claims this money was offered as a bribe to halt filming the biopic.

The movie, titled *The Last African Hero*, focuses on Burkina Faso's president, Ibrahim Traore. Lil Win first teased the film on May 21, showcasing himself and his cast in military uniforms similar to those worn by Traore.

In a video posted on May 25, Lil Win displayed the envelope of dollars. He stated that an unknown man approached him with an offer from his boss. The man promised gifts for Lil Win and his crew if they agreed to stop the project. He claimed the amount offered was $20,000.

Hip-life legend Okyeame Kwame supports Lil Win's project. Many Ghanaians are eager to see the film released despite opposition. Fans have encouraged him to persevere through these challenges.

Netizens reacted strongly to Lil Win's situation after learning about the bribe offer. Comments varied widely, with some expressing concern for his safety and others questioning why anyone would want the movie stopped.

Earlier, Lil Win attracted attention for mispronouncing Ibrahim Traore’s name in a video while dressed like him. This moment gained traction on social media as fans discussed it online.
