Chris Brown Swerved 'Hope City Project' Unveiling …After Pocketing $1m

Africans seem to have a lot of money these days to waste and western celebrities are in to help us spend this money.

I have had several e-mails seeking my opinion on the Chris Brown having been allegedly paid a whopping $1million to come to Ghana to be part of the official unveiling and sod cutting of the multimillion 'Hope City Project', which would be followed by a mega concert by him.

This will not be the last time an African or African based company would spend such big sum of money that a lot of African countries sometimes go out to seek as foreign aid on a western entertainer.

This has just started and until Africans begin to place substantial value on our local talents, foreign talents would continue to take our cash whiles we put up with their shoddy attitude.

Chris Brown was supposed to arrive in Ghana early Monday morning to be able to attend the sod cutting ceremony, alongside the President of Ghana-John Mahama, GhanaCelebrities.Com http://www.ghanacelebrities.com has learned.

The sword cutting and unveiling of the 'Hope City Project' took place with the President in attendance and Chris Brown missing. In fact, even a day after the above event, Chris Brown was still not yet in Ghana.

From our source in the organizers camp, Chris Brown was contracted to make appearance at the all important unveiling ceremony alongside the President as well as the mega concert at the Accra Sports stadium.

The question should not be; Is Chris Brown worth being paid $1million to perform or spend less than 24 hours in a third world struggling African country which sometimes go about begging for such sum in foreign aid?

The answer to the above question is obvious. If by our own misplaced priority we are ready to spend huge amount of money on foreign artistes, at least can't we be given what we paid for? Ghanacelebrities.com
