The Music Council of Ghana (MCG) issued a serious threat to the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts through a letter, informing the former of a massive peaceful demonstration they intended to embark on.
On Thursday 27th Feb, 2014, GhanaCelebrities.Com got hold of a gist that the Music Council of Ghana served the ministry with a ‘harsh toned’ letter, informing it of a demonstration they intend to embark on today Tuesday 4th March, 2014 without giving any reasons for their intended action to the ministry.
According to our source, by Friday 28th Feb, 2014, the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts called the office of MCG, prevailing upon them to call off their demonstration or have a meeting with the ministry to address whatever issues the MCG has; but, the President of MCG, Mr. Nester Ekow Micah, declined any seating or meeting.
Mr. Micah told the ministry that since he wrote officially to inform them on a subject matter and not through a phone call, the latter shouldn’t call for his attention for a meeting through a mere phone call. Our source revealed that Mr. Micah therefore insisted that the ministry send an official letter to his outfit before he will heed to whatever they had to say.
For reasons best known to the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts, they re-directed MCG’s letter to the National Commission on Culture, directing the Commission to have a meeting with the MCG to discuss the latter’s petition to enable the Honourable Minister address them.
