Kofi Nti Angry Over Ghanaian Music Videos Of Our Time
The smoking of wee by musicians and other players in the showbiz
industry is a long-standing phenomenon which has been very difficult to
curb.
There are some people who smoke wee secretly and there are others who
openly suggest to the populace that they smoke wee due to its perceived
benefits forgetting that per the laws of the Land, the act of possession
and use of wee is an offence. One disturbing thing that is slowly
creeping into the showbiz industry is the smoking of wee in music videos
and for which reason Ghana’s highlife musician, Kofi Nti has hit hard
at his fellow musicians who glorify the smoking of wee in their music
videos.
Speaking in an exclusive interview with Flex Newspaper, Kofi Nti who
sounded very disappointed, noted that he has observed in recent times
that even though the smoking of wee is an offence in this country and
the Ghana Police arrests and advise the citizenry to desist from its
possession and smoking, some musicians rather smoke wee in their music
videos.
He also indicated that one disappointing thing about this occurrence is
the fact these music videos are shown on television without any
restrictions which poses a threat to the upbringing of children in the
country.
”One thing musicians have to know and understand is, music is one of
the educational tools God gave to us and therefore, people emulate,
learn, and are encouraged by the kind of music and videos we put out
there. My question therefore is, if you smoke wee in your music video,
what you are teaching?”
Kofi Nti also mentioned that if television stations see nothing wrong
with these music videos and therefore show them on their platforms, then
Ghana Police should also desist from arresting wee smokers because it
is now an acceptable act on TV these days.
