A TWO DECADE JOURNEY

From a humble Stars of the Future campaign trail, then theatre arts, to Viasat One (A use-to-exist tv channel in Ghana) and subsequently a household name in Ghana and even African comedy, the journey of Foster Owusu-Amponsah popularly refferred to as Foster Romanus is inspiringly novel and studded with both rough and smooth diamonds (since he sincerely subscribes to the philosophical class that believes that whether rough or smooth, the moment; are all opportunities, or diamonds as we call it on our team) and subsequently earned him the flambouyant sash Ghanaians adorned him with as EMPEROR OF GH COMEDY.

In the early 2000s after shooting into limelight by a popular stage play where his R for Romanus mantra caught fire; he and a new crop of passionate artistic comedians took over the reins of comedy from the ‘old-gees’ Fritz Baffour, KSM and the likes, and especially leading the pack of ‘hungry’ Ghanaian comedians who wanted their share of global recognition as much as Nigeria had then, they constructed a highway for comedy through a virgin forest.

Achievements

Apart from being billed on many local and global platforms from mega events in the United States, United Kingdom and etc., Foster Romanus was honoured to represent Ghana at the Delphic Comedy Championship in South Africa. On his shelves are the Male TV Personality of the Year and Teen Choice Comedian 2014, with numerous citations and nominations in honour of his diligent work done.

Social Responsibility

  • Beneficiaries of the philanthropism of Foster Romanus are numerous but for his insistent nature of keeping a quiet life on that aspect has shadowed most. However a classic example of giving back to society is his Jesus Laughs Too Comedy show which he donated its proceeds to the needy at an Orphanage in Kumasi.
