Keche voiced hope that the new administration would provide some relief. They praised President Mahama’s decision to appoint more creatives into government, saying it could result in meaningful reforms in the royalty payment system.
The duo also highlighted the financial challenges faced by industry veterans, pointing to reports that highlife legend Amakye Dede once received just GH¢300 after travelling to GHAMRO’s offices.
“So if even he, a legend in the game, is taking GH¢300, how much more us?” they lamented, stressing that the issue is an industry-wide injustice that must be addressed urgently.
