Wendy Opoku Addo better
known in the showbiz industry as Wendy Shay has applauded Nana Addo Dankwa
Akufo Addo on the good works he has done since he assumed power in 2017 most
especially on education and the creative arts sector.
Speaking on Empire FM’s ‘Showbiz Today’,
the Ruff Town Records signee heaped praises on Nana Addo and also added that
she’s very impressed with his performance so far as the head of state.
“The
NPP has done a lot of good work and are still doing more in the creative arts
industry. If you look at some of the things they have done, even not just the
creative arts industry, for example Free SHS, a lot of people have benefitted
from the policy”
The
self-styled queen of Ghana muisc further indicated the positive impact Nana
Addo’s free SHS policy has had on her cousins and other less privileged
children.
“I
have cousins, junior siblings in the country and they have all been
beneficiaries of the Free SHS policy. So Nana Addo has done very well”
Going forward, Wendy Shay pleaded with
Akufo Addo to ease the ban on socail gatherings with the notion that musicians
are going bankrupt because they have lost a lot of gigs due to the ban.
The “Uber
driver” composer also entreated the government to provide
people in the creative sector with some some stimulus package to help them
cover up for some losses the industry’s key players have made as a result of
the COVID-19.
“…Nana
Addo has done a lot for the creative arts industry. However, what I am
expecting from him is that as a result of COVID, many of us have made losses.
So I am hoping the President will pay a courtesy call to us and provide us with
some financial assistance to cover up for the loss due to the fact that we
couldn’t hold concerts…”
