"As an industry we need to set-up structures, we need a policy to govern our creative arts. There should be an agenda to bring our upcoming Artistes to the main stream," Tilla Rhay stated in an interview with him on the 9th of October, 2018. Clearly a topic close to his heart.

He said in a proposal to all media houses in the Brong Ahafo region of Ghana, outlining the need to play 50% of music made in the Region to help promote talent and establish household names for already unveiled Artistes.

He pointed out that Brong Ahafo (B/A) is full of great talent and thus the need for a platform for their music to be showcased. He reiterated that "50% of the songs being made by our own artists here in
the likes of Kooko, Bodwese, Fali Finest, Kaasolo, Qwesi Qorang, Imrana, Lexis, Daremame Beat, Berry Jay, Joe Felix, Xdeim, Tilla Rhay himself and many others should be played first and foremost in our Region before anywhere else really."

He concluded saying, "let us all support our own to put Brong Ahafo on the map, as similar measures are being put in place in most of the other Regions, Tamale and Takoradi even playing almost 80% of their own songs. Let's all come together to help push this agenda" He petitioned.

The idea of slavery or slave trade was not foreign to Africa before their contact with the Europeans.There is evidence that Africans were involved in the slave trade through the trans-Saharan and ocean slave trade . The trans-Atlantic  slave emerged as a result of the Portuguese contact with west African especially in Africa in the  15thcentury. Slavery was not an important component of the trans-Atlantic slave trade in the early 15th century. The main items of the slave between the Portuguese and west Africa were gold,beads,copperbars,clothes,cowries,spices etc.However,the discovery of the Americas by the Spaniards and the subsequent exploitation of Africa interms of mining and agriculture led to a special type of labour which could meet the labour needs of the Europeans.

SOLUTIONS TO THESE IMPENDING ISSUES ARE AS FOLLOWS ; Place bins at vantage points – It has been said that, the last time this was tried, the bins were stolen. Unpatriotic Ghanaians shouldn’t stop us from living well. Police the beaches- Beaches must be policed, cleaned and preserved – Seriously, the idea of fish fattened on poop is not natural or funny. It is not a worthy cultural practice either. It should stop. The sight of adults and children constantly shitting at our coastline is one of the quickest ways of spreading disease and degrading the seabed. Every home must have a toilet facility – In 2019, open defecation should be unacceptable to all Ghanaians. This must be the law. No landlord should be allowed to rent out rooms if they do not have a  toilet facility.

But there should be no reason new properties should go up without toilets, Shops and other publ

And they are calling on the president of the Republic of Ghana to either help them to fix the traffic lights or allow the Regional Minister to resign. ” For the past two years, the traffic l
