Last year, Daddy Lumba was the first to be honored on the show. Ghana can say that the show was a total success which could boast of appearances by Former President J.A. Kuffour, J.J. Rawlings and his wife. It was indeed a must-be-there show.

The highlife maestro disclosed that as his brother Daddy Lumba was able to invite the two formal presidents, he is planning of bringing the flag bearers of the two big political parties NPP and NDC. “President Mahama, Nana Addo, J.J Rawlings, J.A.

The legend used the opportunity to debunk the story of him being the highest paid musician in Ghana. He said he doesn’t know the amount of money some of the musicians charge. He mentioned names like Daddy Lumba, Kojo Antwi, Okyeame Kwame and some rap artiste saying they are all doing well in the industry and he doesn’t think he is the highest paid musician.
