Music producer, Hammer says he disagrees with how MUSIGA spent ¢2 million received from the government.

Furthermore, according to him, the President of MUSIGA could have put the money to better use. It was better than to just conduct research.

Moreover, former Minister of Finance, Dr Kwabena Duffuor announced that the government had set aside ¢2 million for musicians in the country.

MUSIGA president, Obour revealed that the ¢2 million government support was to conduct a comprehensive research into the Ghana music industry.

Therefore, a lot of industry persons criticized Obour for wasting the money. According to them, the money could have been channelled into other areas of the music industry that badly need support.

Hammer noted that

“Obour brought some life in there [MUSIGA] in the beginning, then all these controversies started.”

Touching on the money, the producer said,

“personally I was totally against what we used the money [¢2 million] for.

Apparently that is what we asked for the money to do so we can’t do something else. When I found out that Obour actually used that excuse to access the money, I was like we can’t do anything about it, we have to do that.”

Hammer rated Obour’s performance 6/10. He said “there was so much that could be done,with the ¢2 million government support.”

“Arts and culture, as a sector, remains one of Africa’s greatest strengths.

Veteran Ghanaian actor, George Appiah Kubi, known as Paa George advises Ghanaian producers. He told them to consider emulating the Nigerian Film Industry when it comes to old men’s roles in movies.

Furthermore, the 81-year-old actor, is not happy about some Kumawood producers who choose young and upcoming actors over ‘experienced’ old actors in the industry for the for old people’s roles.

He made the point on the side of the final funeral rites of late actor, “Super OD”.

Paa George on acting roles for older actors

“You only become an adult if you want. Nigerian producers don’t recruit young guys for old men roles. They use their old experienced actors. Here, young guys dye their hairs the color white and they are good to go.” 

Furthermore, he noted that these same young guys charge higher than the old guys. Therefore, producers should focus on people like him if they want “experienced” old-aged actors in their movies.

“The young men charge a lot of money; it’s some of the producers who have made these things a habit. It’s really disturbing and painful. We the old men need to be featured in movies. The Nigerians are not neglecting theirs. We should do the same.”
