The President joined the Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGA) during their Grand Ball held on December 29, and from all indications, the president had much fun.

After hitting the dance floor with his impressive dancing skills, the President also named some Ghanaian musicians he believes are doing so well.

According to a report by Zionfelix.com, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo also disclosed that he listens to songs by these musicians as a form of entertainment to release stress.

He stated that Samini, Sarkodie, Shatta Wale, Stonebwoy, Edem, D-black s well as “the new kids on the block like Kidi, Fancy Gadam, Kuami Eugene, Ebony, and Becca have also caught the attention of many.”

Last year, the President invited the self-acclaimed dancehall king to the Flagstaff House and honoured him.

But Shatta Wale’s invitation to the Seat of the Presidency didn’t go down well with other musicians.

Samini and Stonebwoy also called on the President to invite them to the Flagstaff House like he did Shatta Wale, but their invitation is yet to be considered.
