Samini is not happy about reports that President Nana Akufo-Addo promised him the Deputy Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture position but later swerved him.
Samini was reported to have said: “I’m very disappointed the President promised me a Deputy Minister position in the Tourism, Arts and Culture Ministry but I didn’t know what happened at the last minute. This tribal game won’t help Ghana.”
In his response, Samini shot down the claims.
“Why do people do this?” he questioned with angry emoji. “Please ignore this one, guys. It’s false news.”
Mark Okraku-Mantey, the President of the Creative Arts Agency was appointed the Deputy Minister of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts last week.
Samini openly joined the Nana Akufo-Addo’s campaign during the 2020 general elections and even did a song to that effect.
Interestingly, his name never came up in earlier conversations when people were mentioning possible candidates for that position.
