Why won\u2019t you do Kumawood TV? We pride ourselves in highlife so why not highlife and hip-life TV? I don\u2019t understand where these ideas are from. They have shown us that there is reward in supporting political parties\u2026\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Bulldog further stressed that, it will be very difficult to telecast movies or content of other actors and musicians through the Agya Koo and Daddy Lumba branded TVs respectively.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy won\u2019t you say Ghanaian Music TV and Ghanaian Movie TV? So, now Agya Koo is the icon of movies? Where are the people who came before Lumba? You expect Kojo Antwi to go on Daddy Lumba TV? It is sad. And this is the mother speaking. Tourism TV makes sense but for Agya Koo TV, Daddy Lumba TV, how\u2026?\u201d Bulldog told host Andy Dosty.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 65 updated by: 65 --><\/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 Tuesday, 30 January 2018 Source: adomonline.com 2018-01-30 Veteran musician Daddy Lumba and actor Agya Koo Controversial Entertainment Critic and Artiste Manager, Bulldog, says the Ministry for Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts\u2019s proposal to Agya Koo and Daddy Lumba TV smacks of rewarding the two for campaigning for the NPP.
