“It is our hope that all recently elected politicians would help to build the country’s entertainment so that it can be self sustaining. Musicians we’re very instrumental in the success of.many politicians. If we are not that important in promoting politicians, they won’t be using us to gather crowd during their campaigns.
“They should not wait till the next political campaigns before they do what we have all been asking for, which is creating enabling environment and policies for the industry to thrive.
