Highlife veteran, Rex Omar has urged governments to appoint creative arts players as main ministers and not as deputies.
According to him, the ministers always have their plans and creative ideas for the industry suppressed by industry players because they know next to nothing about the industry.
“If you make a practitioner as a deputy it brings friction. What would happen is most of the people in the industry would gravitate towards the deputy mister, and it makes the minster uncomfortable,” Rex Omar opined.
The president of the Ghana Music Rights Organisation (GHAMRO) added that the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture is failing because people with little or no idea about the affairs of the industry have been given the mandated to lead it.
