Two Jamaican dance hall artistes - Bounty Killa and Mavado
have been banned by the government of Guyana.At a press conference held Monday afternoon in Georgetown, Home Affairs Minister Clement Rohee told reporters that Bounty Killa, whose real name is Rodney Price and Mavado whose real name is David Brooks are seen as a security risk to the country. Mr. Rohee said the decision to blacklist the two Jamaicans was taken last week by the Bharrat Jagdeo administration after careful consideration of their track records. Mavado was due to perform at a concert to celebrate the Linden Town this weekend. Bounty Killa's last performance in Guyana two weeks ago ended in controversy with a faulty music system and sporadic gunfire. |
