It would be recalled that, during the emergency meeting of the Ghana Music Rights Organization (GHAMRO) at the Teachers Hall on Wednesday, which was held to discuss the unpaid royalties that have not be accounted for to musicians, the legendary Abirekyieba Sammy noted for his hit song ‘Yellow Sisi” cursed Chairman Kojo Antwi, for allegedly worsening the plight of musicians.
Known in real life as Chief Abirekyieba Kofi Sammy-Amesese, the legendary hitmaker’s attack on chairman Kojo Antwi created mixed reactions among Ghamro members and some showbiz enthusiast present. The contemplation was about whether he should apologise or not.
But speaking in a one on one intriguing interview with Rossy of razzonline.com in line with whether he regrets cursing Kojo Antwi, Abrakyieba Sammy delineated strenuously that, he doesn’t regret cursing Kojo Antwi by saying “God will punish him(Kojo Antwi).
“Thank you for your question, you are my grand daughter(Rossy) —I really feel the pain…we have carried water and we carried foams…we’ve not seen some before– Kojo Antwi’s regime is the worst, compared to that of Madam Betty Mould and Carlos Sakyi… I blame kwame Ampadu for alluring us into allowing Kojo Antwi to lead us…… I don’t regret cursing Kojo Antwi by saying that God would punish him. They’re thieves–if i had a gun would shoot him to death and kill myself after “, He courageously told Rossy of razzonline.com
Upon persuasion by Rossy to repeat what he told Kojo Antwi to affirm that he doesn’t really regret what he said, the 77-year-old Abirekyieba Sammy, imperiously repeated it by explaining that God would punish him too if he ever showed any sign of remorse
The most despondent part of the interview is when the veteran musician revealed passionately that he could not pay his tithe and grand children’s school fees, all because Kojo Antwi and his administration has failed to pay his royalties.
