Veteran Kumawood actor and musician, Agya Koo
Veteran Kumawood actor and musician Agya Koo (Adu Kofi), has called on the president to invest in infrastructure for Ghana’s creative sector.
Agya Koo’s call began when colleague actor, Wayoosi commended President Mahama for his good works done.
However, Agya Koo, a staunch member of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), in a now deleted post, called on Wayoosi to urge President Mahama to revisit and finalize the creative arts building at Kwadaso, an initiative started under the previous administration.
“My fellow thespian, let’s urge the president @JDMahama to revisit and complete the Creative Arts building initiated by the previous administration at Kwadaso and there is still much work to be done. So let’s keep it real. Much love tho,” he posted.
Earlier this month, he had publicly urged President Mahama to continue and complete the creative arts projects begun by former President Akufo-Addo, noting that such facilities would foster artistic talent and preserve cultural identity.
His comment, however, has been met with criticism from social media, with many accusing him of bias. Some questioned why he didn’t make this call when his government was in power but rather now that Mahama is president.
