Renowned music producer and sound engineer Fred Kyei Mensah, popularly known as Fredyma, has expressed his understanding of the creative industry's concerns regarding the current government's performance. In a recent interview with Graphic Showbiz, Fredyma emphasized that the government has not effectively communicated its numerous projects and achievements in the creative sector.

Fredyma acknowledged that poor communication has been a significant issue for the government, urging officials in key positions to publicize their accomplishments more robustly. He pointed out that while the NPP government has made considerable efforts to improve the creative industry, their achievements have largely been confined to building amphitheatres and rehabilitating regional cultural centers.

"I think the NPP government has done a lot for the creative industry but communication has not been as vibrant as expected. The focus has rather been more on the building of the theatres in all the regions which was not achieved. Only two new amphitheatres and a regional centre for culture edifices were rehabilitated," he noted.

Fredyma highlighted the long-standing issue of unpassed proposals for laws governing the creative industry, which has led to various infractions in practice. He praised the Creative Arts for Change, a branch of the NPP government working through the Creative Arts Council, for pushing significant legislation. He mentioned that these efforts are now awaiting Presidential assent to become law.

"For instance, the Creative Arts for Change, an appendage of the NPP government through the Creative Arts Council, pushed for certain legislations to enhance our trade and the government succumbed. We are waiting for the Presidential accent to make it a law," Fredyma stated.

Additionally, Fredyma encouraged creatives to engage in politics, asserting that their involvement is crucial for driving the changes they desire within the industry.
