US-based Ghanaian socialite Naana Donkor Arthur says Fameye should blame the venue organisers for the low patronage of their shows abroad.

According to NDA, these event organisers refuse to pay promotors to make the shows successful.

Earlier, Fameye revealed in an interview on TV3 that Ghanaian artistes could not hold successful shows abroad because even Ghanaians living overseas do not patronise them.

In response to his accusations, NDA pointed out that when they promote shows, event organisers refuse to pay them.

She explained that these organisers would tell them that it's a boost for their brand, so they are paid little to none.

You, event organisers, can go for a big artiste from Ghana to hold a show in Ghana and pay them handsomely. And also spend lots of money on the venue. But those of us who will promote the show, you don't want to pay us.
You will promote a show for it to be successful. And after that, the organisers will give you only $200. Meanwhile, they sold each ticket for more than $100.
