Ghanaian musician Nana Kwaku Osei popularly known as Nacee has expressed optimism in the policy ideas of the National Democratic Congress' Presidential Candidate, John Dramani Mahama.
When asked on the sidelines of the NDC Manifesto launch at Winneba on August 24, 2024, the 'Aseda' singer told ChannelOne TV that judging from John Mahama's past achievements, he was hopeful that the ideas the former President would benefit the nation.
"I believe he can do it because when President Mahama was on the seat, he did a couple of things and he has done those things before," he said.
Nacee is not the only creative arts person who has declared support for the National Democratic Congress ahead of the December 7, 2024 election. Big Akwes, Christiana Awuni, Mercy Asiedu, Jack Alolome, and Kofi Okyere Darko are among the some of the people in the entertainment fraternity who have publicly endorsed the NDC.
For Nacee, this is not the first time he has shown affiliation to the party. He is well known for composing songs for the party's campaign. Popular among such songs are 'E Dey Be', 'Onaapo' and 'Mahama Okada'.
The National Democratic Congress has announced policies such as the 24-hour economy which aims to help boost Ghana's economy.
For the creative arts sector, the NDC intends to create and promote ‘The Black Star Experience’ as Ghana’s flagship Culture, Arts and Tourism brand to make Ghana a preferred tourism destination. The Black Star Experience will undertake a year-round celebration in all the major entertainment, artistic and educational disciplines.
The party also has plans to support young digital content creators in developing content that promotes Ghanaian culture, revive the creative arts fund to provide sustainable financial support for start-ups and ailing large, medium and small creative enterprises, review and strictly enforce broadcasting, digital and local content provisions to stimulate local artistic productions, facilitate, enforce and enhance the collection and management system for copyrights and royalties in Ghana, among others.
