Midland Savings & Loans Ltd have been working with the Musicians Union of Ghana on various projects for the past four years.
President Obour, who signed the MOU covering the car hand-over said: “The presentation of the car is to encourage young artistes to be more creative and also make the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards much more competitive thereby improving the general standards of our music”.
In his acceptance speech, Joey B thanked D-Black for putting him in the spotlight and also thanked MUSIGA for the gesture; specifically mentioning President Obour for steering his career with advices. He jokingly called Samini, a prophet, because Samini had told him not long ago, that he would be driving a very good car soon.
He dedicated the car to Castro saying, “I know we will see you again, whenever it will be”.The event was organised for Midland/Musiga/Charterhouse
