Notable among Anas’s works in 2015 was the expose of gigantic corruption that has existed in the Judicial System of Ghana. That singled documentary film shook the whole continent and drew the attention of international organisations and media to Ghana and has also caused the dismissal of several judicial workers. The secretly filmed documentary also made it as the most successful film premier in Ghana which was shown amidst several court suits for 3 days.
Bola Ray (CEO, EIB Network), Dede Ayew (Footballer, Black Star) and Francis Xavier Sosu (Managing Partner, F-X Law and Associates) followed respectively paving way for the first and most influential young female, Farida Bedwei the Co-founder and CTO of Logiciel Ltd who runs a FinTech and serves on the National Communication Authority board though suffering from Cerebral Palsy.
