Ghanaian actor Clement Brobbey, known as Mr. Beautiful has revealed why his colleague Kofi Adu, popularly known as Agya Koo, shifted his political allegiance from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Mr. Beautiful disclosed on the Urban Blend show on Accra-based 3FM that Agya Koo, a former NDC supporter with a close relationship with former First Lady Lordina Mahama, was denied access to visit her by the police.
This incident, which Agya Koo claimed was due to police blocking his entry, greatly upset him.
“President Mahama did a lot for many celebrities, but since the NPP came into power, they changed their allegiance.
“Agya Koo was among them. He had a strong relationship with Mahama’s wife and even had her personal contact.
“However, after being denied access to Lordina by the police, he decided to switch from the NDC to the NPP.
“Lordina was unaware of Agya Koo’s visit, but he claimed the police blocked him from seeing her, which led him to stop supporting the party. You can call him to confirm this. Other celebrities have done similar things and switched to the NPP,” he said.
Mr. Beautiful has been actively supporting the NDC’s flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama, ahead of the upcoming 2024 general elections scheduled for December 7, 2024.
