Actors, actresses, producers, and filmmakers from diverse political affiliations came together to walk for peace, showcasing an exemplary demonstration of harmony amidst differences.
The event, which kicked off at Jubilee Park at 7:00 AM, saw participants taking to all major routes in Tamale, advocating for peaceful coexistence and tolerance across party lines. Tallywood’s collective voice reminded the public of the importance of prioritizing unity over division, especially in the political landscape.
Despite their differing political inclinations, the participants marched in solidarity, donning outfits with colors representing various political parties. This symbolic gesture aimed to inspire others to embrace diversity and reject the divisive tendencies that often characterize politics.
Organized with the support of Twilium Ghana Ltd., the Peace Walk was not only about taking steps but also about taking a stand. Tallywood used its influence as storytellers to convey a message of hope, collaboration, and understanding to the public.
The event garnered attention from several prominent media outlets, including media partners HYPE TV, ZAA Radio, Sagani TV, and Diamond FM, ensuring the message of peace reached far and wide. Twilium Ghana Ltd., the official sponsor, played a key role in ensuring the success of the initiative, demonstrating the importance of corporate support in fostering societal harmony.

By taking this bold initiative, Tallywood has set the pace for other industries and organizations to emulate. Their message is clear: peace is not just a responsibility—it’s a shared value that must be upheld by all.
As the event concluded, the participants emphasized their commitment to using their platforms as filmmakers to further promote peace and educate the public on the value of togetherness. The Inter-Party Peace Walk was more than a walk—it was a movement, and its impact will resonate across the Northern Region for years to come.
