Ghanaian songstress MzBel is under fire for accusing Ga Dangbes of laziness.
In an interview with Kwame Dadzie on Joy FM, the 16 Years hitmaker revealed her reason for not employing Ga people despite being one.
According to her, most of her people (Gas) were lazy and would not work even when offered the opportunity. She revealed they had a lackadaisical approach towards work.
“I hardly employ Ga people, but I would love to. But the thing is, they won’t work when they come. They’ll come for only two days; that’s the maximum.” she said.
Having come under heavy criticism from the Ga community on social media, the musician has responded, saying she would not apologize for her comments.
In a post, she wrote,
“I’m investing my money, time, energy, idea, and links into a talented Ga Dangbe artiste I recently signed to my son’s record label!
Instead of supporting me, some of you are coming after me for sharing my personal experience working with Ga Dangme employees.
Did you even listen to my entire conversation on Joy FM? I highlighted many positive points about Ga Dangme creatives!
And by the way, how many of your favourite Ga Dangme musicians and cultural troupe were employed or invited to the lavish birthday party organized by a Ga Dangbe man a few days ago right in the centre of GAMASHIE?
Worry about that, and let me be. I owe no one an apology for speaking the truth.”
