According to D-Black, Obour, while President of MUSIGA did not manage affair well while Criss Waddle simply thought he was a leader who served his selfish interests.

“He took me to my first tour in China, he helped me get my first car ever, also he’s connected me with very prominent people in the industry, to mention a few,” Joey added.
According to Joey B, Obour is a very focused personality and needs support in his new bid to serve as Member of Parliament at Asante Akyem South constituency.
Obour, during his tenure as President of MUSIGA, introduced the Ageing Musicians Welfare Fund, loans schemes for its members, the MUSIGA Academy, and spearheaded the research into how much the music industry contributes to the economy.
