Outspoken media personality, Afia Pokua, popularly known as Vim Lady, has called on the leader of The New Force political movement, Nana Kwame Bediako, popularly known as Cheddar, to be wary about how he describes himself in his quest to be president of Ghana.
She said that Cheddar’s claim to be the “savior” is too excessive to be employed, and it does not bode well for his political campaign and aspirations.
According to the Despite Media staffer, certain former national leaders who made significant contributions to the country’s growth, such the late President Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah and Jerry John Rawlings, never claimed to be saviors.
Speaking during an Instagram live session that GhanaWeb was able to see, Vim Lady told Cheddar to stop calling himself the “savior” in relation to his political campaign.
“Describing yourself as the saviour is one thing you need to be careful. Even Osagyefo (Dr. Kwame Nkrumah) never said that, it was when he declared himself president for life that started his problems. Even he who is the major contributor to Ghana’s development never called himself a saviour.
“The late President, Jerry John Rawlings, who spent almost ten years in office never called himself a saviour. It was some people who called him “Junior Jesus.” So be careful with some of the things you say otherwise, your own words will tie you like a rope in future and there is nothing you can do about it,” she said.
Cheddar officially unveiled himself as the man behind The New Force political movement after the convention programme scheduled to take place at Independence Square was cancelled at the 11th hour due to unforeseen circumstances.
The news was met with mixed reactions on social media with some individuals expressing doubts about his chances of leading the country.
He is referred to as the “saviour” whose quest for the presidency is hinged on a mission to salvage Ghanaians from their plights.
