‘I’LL JOIN ‘DUMSOR’ PROTEST IF I’M ONLY PAID’ – Comedian Waris

Celebrities and influential people in Ghana have been urged to take to the streets in protest at the nation’s increasingly erratic power supply.

Since then, some celebrities have accepted the choice, while others have expressed scepticism.

Ghanaian comedian Warris, however, expressed his opinions on the matter and said that he would only take such action if compensated.

He contended that because protest organizers in Ghana are often well-funded, he (Warris) will expect payment before undertaking such a duty.

He claims that instead of seeing the protest as a service to the nation, it is a collaboration.

“If they call me and there is money, then it is for a good course. It is for a good course that there is light for us to work and get money. If they call me and they tell me they want to partner with my brand I will join them. Fixing the light is a good course and it’s the lord’s work. My issue is that if I’m selected then I’ll have to be paid.

“Let’s say for example if I decide to join Ola Micheal for a demonstration, I will have to take money before I present myself for such a demonstration. This is because I don’t know where Ola passed and the kind of money he has taken from the powers that be to organize such a demonstration,” he retorted.
