The Musicians Union of Ghana extends heartfelt congratulations to John Dramani Mahama on his election as President of Ghana. This significant victory marks a new chapter for our nation, and we are excited about the potential it holds for the creative arts sector and cultural heritage.
As the Union, we assure President-elect John Mahama of our unwavering support in manifesting the Black Star Experience initiative. This ambitious program aims to celebrate and promote Ghana’s rich cultural heritage through various events, including film festivals, culinary showcases, and fashion months. We believe that our culture and creative arts can play a pivotal role in national development with the right policies and support.
We also commend Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia for his gracious concession of defeat. His acknowledgment of the electoral outcome has helped to ease tensions and foster a spirit of unity during this transition period. Such leadership is commendable and sets a positive tone for collaboration across political divides as we work together for the betterment of Ghana.
In conclusion, we look forward to working closely with President Mahama’s administration to ensure that the creative arts sector thrives, contributing significantly to our national identity and economic growth. Together, we can elevate Ghana’s cultural narrative on the global stage.
Signed
Bessa Simons
President, MUSIGA.
