Ibrahim Mahama

Obour Explains MUSIGA's Decision To Honour Ibrahim Mahama
President of the Musicians Union of Ghana
(MUSIGA), Bice Osei Kufour has indicated that the
body’s decision to honour Ibrahim Mahama at this
year’s Grand Ball is based on his contribution
to the event since its inception.

Moments after Ibrahim Mahama, brother of President
John Mahama was named among the people to be
rewarded at the fourth edition of Grand Ball, some
creative arts enthusiasts wondered what he had
done for the industry to earn such a recognition.

But speaking on Peace FM’s Entertenment Review,
Thursday, Obour as widely known said the
contribution of Ibrahim Mahama to the event has
been phenomenon.

“Ibrahim Mahama has been supportive to the Grand
Ball since we started. Last year when we were
auctioning Nana Ampadu’s guitar, he bought it
for GHC 50,000,” he noted.

According to Obour, Ibrahim Mahama and three
others will be given the Music Pillar Awards.

“It is given to three people but this year we
chose four. We select from the private sector,
public sector and stakeholders” he mentioned.

Other figures to be honoured are Edward Boateng,
CEO of Global Media Alliance; Betty Mould-Iddrissu
former Attorney General and Minister of Justice,
and Kasapreko Company Ltd.

The MUSIGA Grand Ball is an annual event which
brings together industry players, state officials
and prominent people on a night networking amidst
entertainment.

This year’s edition comes off at the Banquet
Hall, State House on Friday, November 4.

Artistes lined up for the night includes Bob
Pinodo, No Tribe, Becca, Wiyaala, Maa Amanua of
Wulomei fame, J. K Adofo, Becca, and Abrantie
Amakye Dede.
