Ghanaian Rapper Edem born Denning Edem Hotor has reinforced his request for a stadium to be built in the Volta Region as done in the Northern, Central, Greater Accra and Ashanti Regions.
He disclosed in an interview monitored by MyNewsGh.com that these facilities apart from being used for sporting activities over time, have proven to be venues for shows because the country especially the regions do not have spaces to accommodate large crowds in times of major events.
“I have realized that all across the country, Sports Stadiums automatically become show venues. I have realized that Accra Sports Stadium is a show venue, Tamale Sports Stadium is a show venue and because of that Ghana Music Nominees Jam went to Tamale. It is only once o have seen the nominee jams come to Ho”, he observed.
According to him, while growing up in the industry, he could have also filled a stadium if one existed in his home region and there would have been no need for him to come to Accra with the intention of filling a stadium.
He explained that such facilities help in showcasing the talents of artiste and will also help curb the situation where everyone feels Accra is the make and break point.
“It is quite paramount to me that if it is somewhere, it should be replicated across and I would not wait until my voice becomes redundant before I begin to speak”, he disclosed on Kumasi-based Luv Fm.
