Reggae artist Blakk Rasta recently announced that he would leave Ghana if Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia wins the upcoming presidential elections.
During an interview, he mentioned his plans to relocate with his family, pets, and possessions, and indicated that he would only consider returning if Dr. Bawumia is no longer in power.
Blakk Rasta’s decision reflects his concerns about the potential consequences of a Bawumia presidency, particularly in terms of economic challenges and perceived dishonesty.
“If Bawumia wins the next election, I am out of this nation. If anyone votes for Bawumia it means they don’t fear hardship it means they like lies,” he said.
He criticized Dr. Bawumia’s economic strategies and questioned his ability to bring about meaningful change given his current government affiliations.
This development adds to the ongoing political dialogue in Ghana as both major parties, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC), vie for the presidency.
Dr. Bawumia’s candidacy has sparked debate and scrutiny, especially regarding his role in economic management.
Blakk Rasta’s statement underscores the depth of political engagement within Ghanaian society as the country approaches a critical juncture in its leadership and governance.
