Ghanaian artiste, Empress Gifty, has stated that she will fully support her husband, Hopeson Adorye who is the Deputy National Security Coordinator in charge of Airports if the New Patriotic Party (NPP) wins the forthcoming elections.

According to her, even though there is still a lot more work to be done, she is very satisfied with the government's work as regards the Creative Arts industry in Ghana.

She made this known in an interview with Hitz FM’s Noella Kharyne Yalley.

“For me, I will say yes, I’m satisfied but there’s more room for improvement. Three years have passed and what I would advise the government to do is to focus on the creative arts. We’re losing a lot.

“We’re losing our integrity, the love, the passion because, you put in so much money, but you don’t get it back. Now people don’t buy CD’s, streaming seems to be the ‘ish’ now, so we need a structure or system that will work for us, our royalties, and certain things that can push us”

“look at our industry again, and see what he can do to support us. I think he promised the industry a whole lot of things and I’m praying that with the few months left to elections, he can do something”.

Her husband who is also the Deputy Director for National Security under the NPP is currently contesting as a parliamentary candidate in the Kpong Katamanso constituency. She stated that she will use his influence, if he wins, to spur the arts industry forwards.

“Now my husband is an NPP parliamentary candidate for Kpong Katamanso, and I’m hoping and praying that the people will give the mandate to my husband.

“I don’t want to promise, but if my husband wins I’m going to use him to bring a little change. And I’ll be a bit bias towards my gospel people. We’re suffering, it’s very hard to go to the studio, bring out an album and promote it,” she concluded.
