Nana Dwamena Dankwa, the Chief of Drobonso in the Sekyere Afram Plains District of the Ashanti Region, has publicly stated that he dismissed presidential candidate Nana Kwame Bediako, also known as Cheddar, for holding a political rally in the community without his permission.
In a viral video addressing his constituents, Nana Dwamena Dankwa expressed his discontent with Cheddar’s actions, saying, “Recently, one of the politicians I am told is called Nana Kwame Bediako came to this town and held a campaign at the lorry station without paying a courtesy call here at the palace.
Do you own a town? I drove him out of this town.”
The chief emphasized that it is customary for politicians to visit local chiefs when campaigning, as a sign of respect and to seek permission for their activities.
“If you visit my town to campaign and fail to recognize that there’s a chief here, then you cannot campaign on my land,” he stated firmly, making it clear that such disregard for local governance will not be tolerated.
"Do you have a community?"
