Stay J
Millicom Ghana, operators of the Tigo Network will on Sunday, August 7, 2011 thrill fans who will throng the Ada-Bannar Park at Ada with music from top musicians in the country.
The Tigo Festival Train, a musical concert which will be telecast live on TV3, will climax activities marking the celebration of the Asafotufiami Festival of the people of Ada.
The concert will feature artistes like Cecelia Marfo, Philippa Baafi, Adane Best, Ruff & Smooth, Eduwoji featuring Stay J, Dadi Opanka and many others.
Speaking to the media, Chris Addo, Brand Image Coordinator, said, “The platform is meant to allow the whole country to share in the rich history of the people who happen to be celebrating their festival since not only does Tigo organize musical concerts during the festivals, but also allows the people themselves to tell their own story through a documentary. This documentary is later aired on TV3.”
He was optimistic that the Tigo Festival Train will go a long way in encouraging the understanding and appreciation of each other’s culture.
Since the beginning of this year, the Festival Train has stopped over in Kumasi, Winneba and Elmina for the Akwasidae, Aboakyir and Bakatue festivals respectively.
The Tigo Festival Train will this year tour 10 festival venues across the country.
In a related development, Tigo made a donation in the form of cash and souvenirs to the chiefs and people of Ada as part of the festival celebrations.
Mr. Addo, who made the donation to the chief and his elders, emphasized Tigo’s commitment towards the development of the rich culture of the Ghanaian people.
He stated that Tigo had been supporting festivals across the country and would continue in diverse ways to be part of the celebrations.
