Wax Dey Meets with the Minister of Arts and Culture about the Bill

A couple of days ago Wax Dey was seen in a picture with the Minister of Culture and there were rumors about that visit being related to the bill that was passed about 2 weeks ago that caused the Cameroonian entertainment industry to panic…

It turns out the rumors are true,Wax Dey arranged a meeting with the Minister of Arts and Culture to discuss that new bill! The meet was made possible but this time he didn’t go alone.

He was accompanied by other artists such as – Dynastie le Tigre, Duc-Z, Chilli Wawaye, Chi Chi Ladislav, Divine Verjika, Tino Foy, accompanied by Barrister Tezo Abanda e.c.t.

Adeline Mbenkum played a part to make this possible, not leaving out Salatiel who has been working in the background as well to facilitate the larger process.

Resolution

The aforementioned had as sole purpose to speak with the Minister of Arts and Culture, Hon. Pierre Ismaël Bidoung Kpwatt and his team about the new law on artistic and cultural associations.

This meeting was not definitive – it is only the beginning of a process of consultation with the Ministry of Arts and Culture to make sure that ,artists get the best deal possible for their art.

Most especially future generations , who do not deserve to go through what the artists past and present have been through.

So there was a call on other artists to join them as they embark on the process.
