Chief Operating Officer of Crux Global, Ike Otoo Arhin, popularly known as Gomski says Ghana’s creative space has now grown to become immensely profitable.
He indicated that the profitability of the creative arts space has taken more youth from the streets and saved them from a life of crime.
Gomski speaking in an interview with Y107.9FM’s Rev Erskine on ‘Myd Morning Radio Show’ as part of the special YFM Holiday Havoc conversations, indicated that the monetization of social media platforms has put a lot of money in the pockets of Ghanaian youth.
“(being involved in) creatives now is better than doing fraud, being a content creator is better than doing fraud,” he reiterated.
Gomski insists government must focus a whole lot on developing the creative arts scene and contributing to its growth. To him, a thriving creative arts scene also contributes to economic growth.
“See what Rwanda is doing, see how Dubai used to sell themselves with tourism. Nigerians have done it seamlessly, lets push money into the industry,” he added.
He appealed to the incoming government to prioritize the creative arts scene and enjoy the benefits.
