Chairman of the Ghana Music Rights Organisation, Rex Owusu Marfo has revealed that the organization has taken all telecommunication companies in the country and the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation to court for not paying to use music.

He made this revelation today in an interview with Regina Van Helvert on GhOne TV. He mentioned that the attitude of people not wanting to pay to use music was an obstacle to the progress of the music industry in the country.

“We have to be factual and solve our problems in the Music Industry. We don’t have support systems and we must build it”

Since he assumed the reins of power this has been a major challenge but his time in office would seek to change this concern.

“We are still doing a lot of work and restructuring at GHAMRO. We now have the best welfare policy.”
