Legendary musician, Yaw Sarpong has revealed that he's facing hard times because the unprecedented coronavirus has cancelled shows he already got advance payments for.

He stated how he could not foresee the circumstances leading him to spend the money that he got for the shows. 

Due to the Coronavirus outbreak, Ghana has been on partial lockdown to enable the government handle the virus and stop its rapid spread from overthrowing the country. Aggressive contact tracing has been engaged by government to track down possible infected persons and put up better measure to manage the virus. Although the partial lockdown was lifted, restrictions remain on needless public gatherings.

Speaking in an interview, Yaw Sarpong stated the problems that this has created for him saying, "As I speak to you, there are about four people who have made advance payments to me for their events so what am I supposed to do?”

“I have a very big funeral to perform at on May 9 so I am praying that things would have normalized by then so we can go ahead and perform.”

“For those whose money I have taken in advance and the events did not come off, I don’t really know what I am going to do now.

“It is a very difficult situation for me. I just hope everything comes back to normal so we can go about our businesses,” he added.
