We Need a Musician to Become President

Quarme Zaggy (Nana Quarme Ampah) says it¹s about time a Ghanaian musician contested to become president of Ghana.

Speaking on the X-factor Show on X-fm 95.1 with the host of the Show, Mauvie, he said musicians in Ghana are not appreciated enough for their contribution to the music and art industry.

Quarme Zaggy, real name Nana Quarme Ampah, added he wouldn¹t hesitate to contest for a political position that gives him the mandate to improve on the art and music industry in Ghana.

Speaking on the X-factor on X-fm 95.1 with the host of the Show, Mauvie, on the issues for discussion, dating someone you don't love, the musician noted that loving someone comes natural and takes more than what you see in the physical and therefore it¹s difficult to love a woman you don't feel any affection towards.

Quarme, who is currently single said, he is attracted to women who are affectionate, beautiful and intelligent, adding that money and material things shouldn't be the major factor in choosing a girl to date.

When he was asked whether he will like to run for presidency someday, he smiled the reluctantly replied, yes and went on to say he will choose Efya, a female musician, as his running mate. He explained that he admire Efya for her courage, energy and enthusiasm she puts into her career.
