When you\u2019re talking about what happened in the music industry today, you realise that we\u2019ve lost some lyrics and these are people with all the lyrics in the world. \u201che appealed .<\/p>\n<p>Alhaji Sidiku Buari was among several people including President Akufo-Addo who thronged the State House to pay their last respect to elite highlife musician Paapa Yankson who passed on some few months ago.<\/p>\n<p>He prayed government to honour the past musicians so their names will not be erased from Ghana\u2019s culture. He added that students at the tertiary levels could be made to study about them to improve highlife and the music culture as a whole.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLook at all those who\u2019re alive now. We need actually all these people their historical background so that our youth will learn more about them\u2026 they can learn in the colleges, universities and so on and so forth\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WMX2zCBG3cg\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 35 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Saturday, 21 October 2017 Source: www.ghanaweb.com 2017-10-21 play videoAlhaji Sidiku Buari, Former President of MUSIGA &#13; Former President of Musicians Union Association of Ghana (MUSIGA) has appealed to government to institute a hall of Fame in honour of past musicians who have etched their names in the history books of the country.
