Revolutionary artiste, Emmanuel Owusu Bonsu, popularly known as Wanlov the Kubolor, says he does not feel there is a strong candidate worth voting for in the upcoming 2024 general elections.
The musician who said he has not participated in any of Ghana’s electoral processes, stated that he sees voting as a mere fun engagement, because candidates keep saying the same things without making real changes.
He believes they are all the same, mainly interested in getting contracts rather than making things better.
Speaking on the AM Show, he said that the country's leaders are not effectively addressing issues, particularly the poor quality of roads due to the use of substandard materials.
He stressed that the Tema Motorway, meant as a major highway, should never undergo repairs with subpar tools and materials.
“The road is in bad condition and is still not fixed.
“The leaders are not thinking about the roads, they’re just thinking about contracts, because if they want a road that will last and serve Ghanaians, they will be thinking about concrete.”
He emphasised that the candidates that often come forward to be elected into office are of the same motivation, essentially aiming to trade contracts for the continuation of existing issues.
”The candidate and the people we usually have as options are the same kind of people who are like basically just going to exchange contracts on the same things going on.
“I don’t feel there’s a strong option to vote for anyone.”
