Veteran Musician, Bessa Simons who is contesting for the presidency of the Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGA) has given reasons why he is the best person to be given the nod.
In an interview on OC Showbiz Review on Skyy Power FM in Takoradi, Bessa Simons said amongst those contesting for the position, he is the one who operates an open-door policy. “I am affable and a team player. As you already known me, anytime you call me, even when I am asleep, I wake up to pick calls of people” Bessa Simons said.
According to him, he will make the MUSIGA attractive to all musicians to join, especially the young Artistes who are not yet members. He mentioned that he is concerned about the welfare of the young musicians who are the future of the culture and heritage of country so making the association attractive for all to join will be a good step in the right direction.
