I’ll Organise Nima Boys To Stop GHAMRO Executives From Attending Akwaboah Snr’s Funeral – Akosua Agyapong1 min read
Veteran Highlife musician Akosua Agyapong has alleged that the late Kwadwo Akwaboah, also known as Akwaboah Snr, was neglected by the Ghana Music Rights Organization (GHAMRO) when he needed help.
She therefore vowed to do whatever within her power to prevent the executives from attending the One-Week Observation.
Speaking on Akoma FM and monitored by mytimefm.com Akosua Agyapong alleged that many times GHAMRO’s executives cheat and neglect musicians when they are so much in need and would rather use the chunk of the musicians’ royalties on themselves.
“The collectors of the Organization’s royalties received GH¢433,000 as commission as of GHAMRO’s 2021 annual report,” Akosua Agyapong revealed.
The musician indicated that the 2021 report also revealed that GHAMRO’s executives received GH¢132,000 as sitting allowance and refreshment for their board meetings.“If it so happens that in the case of Kwadwo Akwaboah who told me before his death that he only received GH¢250 as royalties, what does that amount to, if not cheating?”
Akosua Agyapong wondered.
She said that she will have no choice but to organize some Nima boys to stop any executive member from showing up at the One Week Funeral observation slated for Tuesday, May 30at his hometown Trede in the Ashanti Region.
