Charming Ghanian actor, model and TV presenter, Mawuli Gavor was recently featured as one of the cover stars for the Fruit Tree Magazine‘s June Edition.
The Martini Brand Ambassador both in Ghana and Nigeria talks about his acting career and more in an interesting interview with the magazine.
See excerpts from his interview below:
Briefly, tell us all you can about yourself and what you do for a living?
My names are Mawuli Peter Gavor. I’m an Accountant/Model turned Actor/TV Host/Producer.Born in Accra, Ghana to the two greatest parents to walk the earth. Follower of Christ, Music lover, Sports enthusiast. I’m just a regular guy trying to enjoy life one day at a time.
Describe your personality, is it anything close to that portrayed on AM HUSH?
I’m not that complicated as a person, in my opinion at least. Most days I’m amused at the path I chose for myself because I’m largely an introvert. Would rather be home than out running around in public, but that’s simply a part of my job so I try to adapt as best I can. My character on Hush is quite the opposite. Tes is the definition of complicated, mainly because he has a much darker past and family turmoil than I ever could in real life.
Would you call Nigeria a second home? What’s fascinates you about the country?
At the moment I spend more time in Nigeria than I do anywhere else, so yes I”d consider it my second home. By far the most interesting place I’ve ever lived. I’m probably most fascinated by the level of happiness people are able to maintain despite dealing with daily frustrations. Before I moved here people often told me if you can live in Nigeria you can live anywhere else.I’m starting to understand why.
What’s your most embarrassing moment ever?
Made a major blunder while live hosting a show being watched by millions of people. Got corrected by the live audience on stage. Ended up being one of the best things to happen to me, because after that episode and in front of so many people, it’s pretty hard for anything to get to me.
