Actor and musician, Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly known as Lil Win, has revealed his intention to contest as a Member of Parliament in the 2028 general election.
According to him, he plans to run as an independent candidate in the Afigya Kwabre North constituency, aiming to unseat the incumbent MP, Collins Adomako-Mensah.
“We need more youth in Parliament, and now many of them are going to the house next year to complement the senior MPs. In 2028, I am contesting the Afigya Kwabre constituency to unseat Albert Kan-Dapaah’s nephew, Adomako-Mensah.
“I intended to contest earlier, but I received many calls from some family members, including my uncle Kan-Dapaah, so I decided to stay away for some time. But in 2028, I will contest as an independent candidate.”

His aspirations follow the success of several entertainment industry figures who contested and won seats in the 2024 parliamentary elections, including John Setor Dumelo, Kwame Asare Obeng (A Plus), Baba Sadiq, and Ebi Bright.
