Musician King Paluta has responded to the speculation surrounding his recent engagement in campaign events with Vice President Bawumia.
King Paluta clarified that his presence on a bus with Bawumia was purely coincidental and not politically motivated.
He explained that while he was speaking with someone who was recording him and offering praise, he was invited to meet Vice President Bawumia. He accepted the invitation out of respect for Bawumia’s prominent position in the country.
“Aside from his party affiliation, Bawumia is a big man in the country and an elder, so should I have shunned his call?” King Paluta questioned.
Responding to allegations of receiving substantial payment for his appearance, King Paluta defended himself, stating that he attended the event as part of his personal engagements.
He explained that any compensation he received was reasonable, covering expenses such as fuel and other logistical costs associated with attending the event.
He emphasized that his brand and services are not offered for free, considering his role as an entertainer.
Additionally, King Paluta cautioned Ghanaians against associating him with any political party based solely on his presence at the campaign event.
He urged his fans not to be surprised if they see him at gatherings of other political parties in the future.
