The veteran musician stated that she has not been celebrated enough in regards to her contribution to the entertainment industry.
“I have been performing for 30 years, I still go on stage with the young ones and by the grace of God, I think I can stand them.
I think awards should be given to artists that have been able to entertain people for so many years.
There should be special awards given to veterans on what they have been doing. Honestly speaking, seeing the way awards are given in Ghana, it’s questionable. I don’t think I am not being celebrated enough”, Akosua Agyapong stressed.
