Is Ragga Dee Eyeing A Ministerial Position?

While appearing on NTV’s Morning Show, Ragga Dee and Emma Carlos emphasized the need for the government to create an independent creative ministry for the arts industry.

The pair reasoned that with a ministry for arts created, it wouldn’t be all about pushing music alone, but would also help in solving and improving every creative aspect of the art in the country from craft to computer games.

We need a ministry for the creative sector. It is a big industry. With a ministry, we will not just be pushing the music industry. We would be improving every creative aspect of the country from arts and crafts to computer games and more – Ragga Dee, Musician

They further explained that the creative industry has a big employment sector that can close the unemployment gap in the country.

Films are under UCC, museums are under tourism, music is under Gender, and the law to commercialise our music is under Justice and URSB. All these things in creative arts are scattered.
