Two former contestants of the annual music talent show, MTN Hitmaker, Yaw Berk and Mr Drew, have called for a more transparent and credible system.

The two artistes appearing on GH Entertainment on Rainbow Radio 87.5Fm, urged organizers of the music contest, to make the voting system transparent so contestants would know how they are performing on regular basis.

They described the Hitmaker as a great show which gives opportunity to talented undercover artiste to shine but stressed the need for the system to be more transparent and credible.

‘MTN Hitmaker is a good platform and I will commend the organizers. I learnt a lot from there. You are exposed to a lot of opportunities but I will admonish them to have a more credible and transparent voting system.

The voting system is not credible and I felt there is the need for them to have a transparent system.’’ Yaw Berk said.

Mr Drew on his part said, ‘I also have a similar opinion. The system should be transparent and credible. But the competition is a good one,’’ he added.
