Kiki Banson Forced Me To Crown Kuami Eugene 'Highlife King' - Amakye Dede Reveals | general-entertainment

Veteran Highlife musician, Amakye Dede has accused singer Becca's former manager and a member of VGMA Board, Kiki Banson of being the person who forced him to crown musician Kuami Eugene “Highlife King” in Ghana.

Amakye Dede disclosed in an interview on Asaase Breakfast Show on Wednesday, June 14, 2023 that he crowned Kuami Eugene at the 2019 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMAs) under compulsion from the event's organizers.

“Though I did that, it was not my will to do so. They forced me to crown Kuami Eugene. I even gave the crown they handed over to me to someone to put it down, but they later said, no I have to crown him, and I did it,” he said.

But the organizers of Charter House have denied the allegations and dared Amakye Dede to name and shame the person who forced him.

Amakye Dede, in an exclusive interview with Abeiku Santana on Okay FM's drive show “Ekwanso Dwoodwoo”, has revealed the identity of the person who compelled him to hand over the crown to Kuami Eugene.

He said; “I'm telling you straight that it was Kiki who forced me. When he even gave it (the crown) to me, I handed it over to a boy who accompanies me called Rubberman to put it down.”

“In fact, they forced me to do it. If they like, they should call Kiki to find out from him”he reiterated.

The legendary musician also furiously asked; “Why should they do this thing to me?"
