I stay in the U.S but I share the same sentiment with you on “Dumsor” – Opanka
Dadie Opanka has revealed in a statement that even though he stays in the U.S., he feels the pain Ghanaians are facing with respect to Dumsor. Born Armstrong Affum but widely known as Dadie Opanka, he has been a vibrant rapper who blew the minds of fans and music lovers with his sensational rap in his hay days.
Opanka shared his sentiments in a conversation with Amansan Krakye of Property FM and expressed that, even though his stay in the U.S. is temporary, he hates Dumsor.
“True leadership is about prioritizing the needs of those you lead. My commitment extends beyond personal interests to the welfare of the entire nation, which inspired the ‘Dumsor Demonstration’ song.
“I hold my Ghanaian citizenship close to heart and continue to consider it my home. My journey to the US was for a brief period, intended for a few performances and a project.
“My stay here is temporary, and I intend to resume my endeavors in Ghana. The challenges faced there resonate with me, as my roots and family are still entrenched in the country.
“The well-being of my family, supporters, and fellow Ghanaians weighs heavily on me. Personal comfort does not equate to happiness when my people are in distress,” Opanka said.
The issue of frequent power outages has affected almost every part of the country, and the government has assured its citizens of a stable power supply soon.
