Independent presidential candidate Nana Kwame Bediako, popularly known as Cheddar, has urged Ghanaian youth to reconsider how they spend their time, particularly on activities like watching football, which he described as unproductive.
Cheddar, making his first bid for the presidency, has been vocal throughout his campaign about breaking the dominance of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC). His campaign has focused on appealing to the youth with ideas aimed at transforming Ghana’s future.
Speaking on GTV’s Presidential Encounters program on Tuesday, December 3, Cheddar shared his views on the importance of time management.
“I think that first of all, if you spend two hours watching football almost every two days, in a year, you would have spent 1,000 hours or 500 hours of your time watching football. Meanwhile, someone is getting paid $500,000 a week to play, but you watch them for free and spend your valuable hours on it,” he said.
“I don’t think that is a good investment because your time is your most important asset, and you have to use it sensibly,” he added.
Ghanaians will head to the polls on Saturday, December 7, 2024, to decide the next President, with Cheddar positioning himself as a strong alternative for change.
