The said Loans acquired over the period with the assistance of the Musicians Union of Ghana amounts to over one million Ghana cedis (GHC1,000,0000). This news has been received with much shock and deemed as untrue in most quarters of the industry. Checks however reveal that this is indeed true and beneficiaries include several artistes rated as legends, A class acts and record labels.
These Loans were acquired over a period with the financial institution “Midland Savings & Loans. This was under a scheme called the “Musiga Ajumapa Business Loans” which had low interest rates and relatively collateral free and guaranteed by the Union to enable her members access funds for their projects.
Sources close to the erstwhile Midland Savings and Loans General Manager lists Rex Omar, Kojo Antwi, Samini, Okyeame Kwame, Tic Tac, Kaakyire Kwame Appiah, Celestine Donkor, Ben Brako, A.b Crentsil, Raquel, Charles Anaman, John Owusu and Lynx Entertainment as part of the beneficiaries of this scheme.
