Evangelist Mama Pat, popularly known as Nana Agradaa, has chided persons questioning the source of the wealth of the leader of The New Force political movement, Nana Kwame Bediako, well known as Cheddar.

She argued that Cheddar’s source of wealth should not be the main focus of some Ghanaians, especially the media, instead, they should rather be more concerned about his policies and what he would bring to the table as an independent candidate hoping to become the nation’s president.

Nana Agradaa fumed about why people are obsessed with Cheddar’s source of wealth and stated that such questions do not make sense to her at all.

She urged Cheddar to be cautious about granting interviews with the media because some individuals want to embarrass him in public by asking irrelevant questions.

“If your campaign team is strong enough, they should have given the radio station specific questions to be asked during the interview and specify those not supposed to be asked. I was watching one of your [Cheddar] interviews and they [Journalists] were asking you where you got your money from,” she said.

“To me, that is a stupid question. Because the source of his wealth has nothing to do with his political ambition which is aimed at helping Ghanaians, some of the questions that are asked by some journalists don’t make sense at all,” she further added.

The source of Cheddar’s wealth has been a major talking point in Ghana especially after he officially unveiled himself as the leader of the New Force political movement.

Cheddar hopes to become the president of Ghana if the Ghanaian electorate gives him the nod in the December 7, 2024, presidential polls as he aims at contesting as an independent candidate.

Advice To Cheddar on What He Should Do

Nana Agradaa offered a piece of advice to Cheddar on what he must do for his presidential ambition to materialize.

According to her, Cheddar should get people who are experienced and well-inclined in politics to be his campaign team to guide him on the steps he should take in his bid to become the president of Ghana as an independent candidate.

She noted that some of his reactions to criticisms and public accusations are unnecessary and it could go a long way to affect his chances of emerging victorious in the 2024 general elections.

Nana Agradaa entreated that Cheddar should get some popular bloggers on social media on his side so that when there is a controversy concerning him, they would stand up for him instead of responding to allegations by himself every time.

“I have seen that you [Cheddar] want to become the president of Ghana. If you are serious about your ambition, then you have to look back at social media, especially Facebook. There are some intelligent bloggers there, you have to get those people on your side so that if there is any negative news that could tarnish your image, they will stand for you and defend you. It is not every issue that you have to respond to it yourself. Recently there was an issue about tax and the response you gave didn’t make sense to me.
“If I were you, I wouldn’t have responded to it. There are some issues that bloggers and your campaign team have to respond to for you. You need experienced people to guide you because politics is not a joke. As for me, I am telling you to get media support and a strong team. Also, get people who will do the dirty work for you in times of criticism.”
