Video: Okyeame Kwame reveals his wife advised him against contesting for MUSIGA presidency

Hiplife musician Okyeame Kwame has said that his wife Annica Nsiah-Apau advised him against contesting for MUSIGA president.

The ‘Rap Doctor’ told Attractive Mustapha in an interview that he had to let go of his dreams of becoming the president of the Musicians Union of Ghana because his wife fears that corruption would be tagged to his name in his attempt to run the Ghanaian music industry. “My wife thinks when I become MUSIGA president, one year later it would be all over the place that Okyeame Kwame is a thief,” he said.

Okyeame Kwame disclosed that he was motivated to vie for MUSIGA presidency because he saw a particular poll circulated online last year with his name being on the top list and that gave him high hopes because he felt it represents the expectations of the stakeholders

He stated that his wife decided to stop all her personal businesses and career aspirations to be his brand’s manager fearing that the MUSIGA position will destroy the reputation they have built.

“If I get the opportunity I will go for MUSIGA president, because I believe I have the ideas and knowledge I can use to help the music industry, I have learnt a lot, been to the University to learn about Music, I have a Masters degree in Marketing Strategy but my wife, mum and others have all asked me not to go near it”, the ‘Rap Doctor’ added.

Okyeame Kwame studied Music and Modern languages at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology and holds a Masters Degree in Marketing Strategy with an enviable record of consistency and undisputed relevance in the Ghanaian Creative Arts Scene.
