For the celebration of the 25th anniversary of the MASA, the public of Abidjan has seen Adama Dahico, a constant comedian who has been renewing his talent in 30 years of career. I always write books, I’m always on the radio and I always give shows. I have just created a new concept called « Youroukou », that is to say the language of numbers and letters.
MASA is a potential market for Africans. Whether it is done in Abidjan or elsewhere, the African people must take ownership of it entirely. Our leaders, for their part, must ask themselves the real questions about the economic model to adopt for the prosperity and profitability of this performing arts market.
It is an industry that they must support in the same way as the other sectors of activity. And when they truly do, we will see the emergence of true arts professionals.
