Stonebwoy speaks about politics
During an exclusive interview on Asempa FM, Stonebwoy spoke about music being his main priority. He mentioned that he would only consider venturing into politics if he were allowed to continue doing music.
The dancehall musician noted that if he were encouraged to do music to make money, he would happily consider the role and make his manifesto known to the people.
“If the Ashaiman people say I can do the job, it is for every four years. I would state my vision and, looking at things, it is Ashaiman I can stand for,” he said.
The Overlord hitmaker mentioned that if he was not given the nod to stand as an MP for Ashaiman, he would move to his mother’s hometown, Alakple.
He added that if Alakple does not work out, he would try his father’s hometime, Anloga, a piece he was certain he would win the seat if he were to stand as the MP for the constituency.
“When I win, I will liaise with companies and work on projects such as poultry farms, speak to the chiefs at Ashaiman and acquire land. Talk is cheap but we can do it,” he said.
