The musician criticized Mr. Okraku-Mantey for disappearing from view after becoming a deputy minister in a previous Tweet.
He tweeted: “Ok so now to Creative Arts. Where Mark Okraku-Mantey dey? Since he became Dep. Minister for our space, he’s grown awfully silent. For an outspoken, extrovert like Mark, I’m a bit surprised. What really dey go on?!”
A fan who tried defending Mark said, “Kelvynboy, he is a deputy minister and he can’t do anything. Even if he wants to bring up something to help the creative industry, it’ll have to go through channels first. What if they disagree? Deputy ministers don’t really do any work.”
Since 2021, Mark Okraku Mantey has been Dr. Ibrahim Mohammed Awal's assistant. He previously served as the Creative Arts Council's President (2017).
Mantey is the founder and CEO of Slip Mark Entertainment as well as a former DJ, radio and TV executive, record producer, and DJ.
In the past, the opinionated 49-year-old has argued on issues relating to the creative arts sector and concerns within with a number of creative arts figures, including Blakk Rasta, Shatta Wale, Bullgod, etc.
