Akoo Nana Lashes Out At Obour For Squandering Musician’s Royalties
William Ato Ankrah, a hiplife artiste popularly known by his stage name Akoo Nana has lashed out at Bice Kuffour aka Obour, the President of the Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGA) accusing him of lavishing Musician’s money on his families abroad.
According to Akoo Nana, most artistes live pretentious lives of living comfortably in order to gain reputation when in actual fact they they are suffering and have to keep ‘hustling’ hard to the point that even some artistes have to go for the services of uber in order to make their daily rounds even though they should have been enjoying or ripping the fruits of their hard works if things had been different.
The Artistes bemoaned a situation in which most of these musicians have neither accommodation of their own nor food to eat and even worst of all have to encounter many embarrassing situations of begging for money from the public in order to cater for themselves and settle their bills when they are sick.
He further accused Obour and his administration of negligence and for only showing love or any sort of care when a musician is sick and bedridden or yet still dead even though they themselves parade themselves in all the latest and big cars and live in comfortable homes with hard earned monies of these same musicians they have neglected.
” Obour doesn’t care and has no respect for Ghanaian artistes and also not being serious with his responsibilities at MUSIGA but Obour’s wife and children are living abroad on which he is lavishly spending their money on, musicians must seat up and fight for what is theirs”
He further referred to Obour’s eight-year reign as a wasteful one maintaining that he has done very little since his tenure and if anything at all, to renovate the Union’s office.
The ‘Amponsah’ song hit maker stressed that: Obour has never painted the place,doors are rusted, the MUSIGA office is messed up”
In a live Facebook video, Akoo Nana disclosed that most artistes live fake lives even though they are seen bragging about their shows organized abroad on big stages when in reality,these artistes are only given peanuts after their shows but come back to Ghana with many deceptive stories on lavish living.
Akoo Nana is however not the only artiste to express his disappointment in Obour as others like Shatta Wale,Kwaw Kese among others too have done same.
