Leader of the New Force Movement, Nana Kwame Bediako, popularly known as Cheddar has rejected rumors claiming he did not vote for his party in the recently concluded 2024 Presidential Election.
During his first media briefing following the election results in Accra on Monday, Bediako raised concerns about inconsistencies within the electoral process.
Reacting to the re-collation and re-declaration of results in some highly contested constituencies, he called for reforms to establish robust structures that will enhance transparency and uphold democracy in the country.
The New Force Movement leader further disclosed his unawareness of some polling station agents assigned to the party during the elections.
“The point I am trying to make is, as a nation, don’t we get enough of destroying our own and lying? and yes my wife voted for me, and I voted for myself,” he stated.
“Our system is not the best system that can really support what we believe in as democracy and that is something that I believe that our leaders will start to look into it and fix it…It has more to do with us as a country but standing up and making sure that we are protected by a system which we have built with laws and governance to protect the nation.”
