Ghanaian music producer and artiste manager, Kwesi Ernest, has expressed disappointment in President Akufo-Addo’s act of appointing his daughter, Gyankroma, as the CEO of the Creative Arts Agency during his tenure.
In a discussion on Peace FM on March 1, 2025, Kwesi Ernest stated that one of the biggest mistakes Akufo-Addo made while in office was appointing his daughter to attain that position.
He emphasised that Gyankroma made no significant impact while in office, and her appointment was needless.
“One of the biggest mistakes of former President Akufo-Addo was appointing his daughter, Gyankroma Akufo-Addo, to become the Creative Arts Agency CEO, and that is the truth. It was wrong. Tell me one clear, evident example of her accomplishments and the work she has done for the agency since her appointment,” he said.
Kwesi Ernest further indicated that Gyankroma had little knowledge about the agency she headed and that her decision to pack office stationery before exiting was unfounded.
“None of all these happened, and I’m not even sure she knows most of the practitioners in the industry. Because her father was in power, she was protected, and so our complaints were not heard. But the truth is just one. Someone became a director of the agency, and when it was time for her to exit the office, she packed out every item from the place,” he said.
Kwesi Ernest’s comment comes amid reports that Gyankroma Akufo-Addo took everything from her office, including chairs, computers, and other stationery, when she left.
