President Mahama was in Kumasi days ago
and the song he used during his stay was
Daddy Lumba’s ‘yentie obia’. The action of
the president has resulted in the people of
the city rejecting the song.
Adom News reports that.
Following the adoption and use of ace
musician Daddy Lumba’s latest song ‘Yentie
Obiaa’ by President Mahama during his recent
visit to the Ashanti Region, some residents in
the opposition stronghold of Kumasi have
decided to boycott the song.
Some of the residents have told Adom News
that any time they heard the song being
played, to them, it seems as if an insinuation
is being cast at them by the President, hence
their rejection of the song.
A beer bar operator described the situation as
being so bad because customers always walk
out of his bar when the song is being played.
A resident described the song as having
suffered the same fate as a cocoa tree under
attack from the dreaded swollen shoot disease.
Though most of them feel sorry for the
renowned musician’s potential loss in arguably
the biggest market in Ghana as a result of its
virtual hijack by the ruling party, they insist
they just could no longer stand the song again
because of the attitude of the President.
This situation notwithstanding, most of them
insisted that they still love the ace musician,
Daddy Lumba.
