The election of six parliamentary candidates from the creative arts sector will change the perception of the industry according to Rex Omar.
“It got to a certain time when you were a creative person and you engaged in politics people who did not understand issues made you feel like it was wrong,” he revealed in an interview on Property FM.
He continued “Meanwhile politics is not a reserve for some particular group or profession but when you are creative and you venture into politics then people will be lambasting you.
The Highlife musician said he’s excited about the young creatives who are going to parliament because they will advocate for the industry.
He said “I’m very happy that in this particular election, we have elected six creatives that have won their parliamentary seats.
“And what that will do is that they would go and advocate for the industry because research has shown that the creative arts industry can provide a lot of jobs for young people”.
