Ghanaian independent presidential candidate Nana Kwame Bediako, who calls himself the Prince of Africa, recently met with members of Ghana's trade union workers to present his vision for the nation.
The 44-year-old entrepreneur and real estate developer is widely known by his nickname, Cheddar. "It's a nickname with significant street recognition," Bediako explained. "It means money in rap music and other communities."
In his address to the trade union workers, Bediako engaged in interactive discussions with union members, the press, and fellow entrepreneurs as he campaigns for the presidency in the upcoming December elections. He highlighted the New Force Movement’s commitment to providing support mechanisms such as access to affordable credit, mentorship programs, and incubation centers for startup ventures.
"Entrepreneurship is the backbone of any thriving economy," Bediako emphasized during his visit to the trade workers union headquarters in Accra.
"We must empower our people to create, innovate, and build the businesses of tomorrow," he added.
