Ghanaian rapper Ayigbe Edem has expressed his disappointment in a statement made by entertainment pundit Kwaku Osei Korankye Asiedu, popularly known as KOKA.
KOKA, in an initial discussion on Hitz FM on January 17, 2025, noted that the Minister-designate of Tourism, Culture, and Creative Arts, Dzifa Gomashie, is not the suitable person to occupy the role, citing a lack of expertise in managing the creative arts sector.
However, in a social media post by rapper Ayigbe Edem on January 18, 2025, Edem described KOKA’s statement as empty.
Ayigbe Edem, who is also a staunch member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), noted that KOKA’s speech is a long one with nothing relevant for Ghanaians to learn from.
“A long speech with Nothing Said…” he said.
Meanwhile, some netizens on social media have also expressed dissatisfaction with KOKA’s statement, urging him to refrain from making utterances that could hinder the development of the creative arts industry.
Member of Parliament for Ketu South, Abla Dzifa Gomashie, was nominated as the minister-designate for Tourism, Culture, and Creative Arts by President John Dramani Mahama on January 16, 2025.
The MP served as a Deputy Minister for Tourism, Culture, and Creative Arts under Mahama’s administration from 2013 to 2017.
