However, a team of young Ghanaian filmmakers are busily working to bring the beloved series back on air with what they call a ‘Rebirth’.

Popular police drama series, Inspector Bediako is to make a comeback to Ghanaian television soon.

The series was hugely popular in the 1990s in Ghana, Nigeria and other West African countries. Since the end of broadcast, Ghanaians have been left with overly dramatic Spanish (and most recently Indian) love dramas to fill the void.

“I had a great childhood…and when I look at the current state of children of this generation, I see them to have missed what I can call the real childhood. The rate at which foreign culture has dominated us is teaching the young ones [has] a little bit of good [in it] and a whole lot of bad”, says Abdulahi Kojo Abass who is working on the project alongside Afua Boampong.

“I remember how he goes through thick and thin to bring justice to the society and how his efforts put smiles on especially [the faces of victims of crime]. Not leaving the wonderful xylophone sound track that create great feel for the show”, he adds.

While he could not give a certain a time when the series will be on TV screens he assured anxious lovers of Inspector Bediako ‘[it] is not going to take time though…’

According to Abass, the team is in talks with Provencal Oscar, the actor who played Inspector Bediako, and Kojo Yankah the creator of the series, to strategize the much-anticipated comeback.
