Veteran sound engineer and revered entertainment analyst, Mr. Fred Kyei Mensah (Fredyman), has threatened to sue Ghana Statistical Service for owing him GHC 3,010 for a jingle he recorded for the latter in 2010.

Fredyma said, “during the 2010 Population and National Census, I recorded a jingle for the Ghana Statistical Service. They called for people to bid for the job which I did. I went through the procedure and at the end, I was chosen to record the jingle. I did about 3 jingles and was duly paid.

“Later, they had a problem and apparently, lost the works so Mr. Kofi Yankah who was in charge of the project, once saw me at Accra Mall and asked me to do another jingle. I did it and charged them GHC 3,010 but till date, they have not given me my money. Four years now! Is it fair?” angry Fredyma queried.

Reliable information available to GhanaCelebrities.Com has it that Fredyma wrote a petition to the erstwhile Head of Ghana Statistical Service – demanding his money but they never replied or invited him to hear his story.
