Ghanaians were afraid of becoming New Force’s PRO – Cheddar reveals
Leader of the New Force, a fresh political movement, Nana Kwame Bediako, affectionately called Cheddar has revealed why he chose a Belgian as a spokesperson.
Until her recent deportation by the Ghana Immigration Service,
Ms. Shalimar Abbuisi was the spokesperson for the New Force.
Explaining his choice of a Belgian as a spokesperson for his group, Cheddar, in an interview with TV3 said he opted for a Belgian, Ms. Shalimar Abbuisi, as the group’s spokesperson after several Ghanaians turned down the offer.
Cheddar noted that many Ghanaians whom he encountered rejected the appointment for fear of their lives.
According to him, they were afraid of showing their faces and preferred to remain anonymous.
He told TV3’s Alfred Ocansey “At the beginning of the New Force with the mask and everything, we have been speaking to people, so many people to join us. But today, I want to tell the nation that we tried so many people to be the spokesperson, but they were all scared and didn’t want to use their faces.”
Consequently, Nana Kwame Bediako criticized the Ghana Immigration Service for failing to provide the alleged forged documents of Shalimar Abbiusi.
“The Ghana Immigration Service could not provide the forged documents of Shalimar Abbiusi,” he said.
On why he is running for the Office of President, he stated that his ambition was a divine calling.
“My ambition to run for the presidency started with a dream. The dream led to the creation of a political party,” Cheddar surprisingly disclosed.

Many SOEs have been used as mere instruments for personal wealth accumulation –Pres.Mahama
President John Dramani Mahama has expressed concern over the misuse of State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) for personal financial gain by individuals in leadership positions.
Speaking during a meeting with Chief Executives of specified entities under the State Interest and Governance Authority (SIGA) on Thursday, March 13, the President directly attributed the dire state of SOEs to their leadership, accusing chief executives, management teams, and governing boards of prioritising personal enrichment over organisational efficiency.
He pointed to bloated budgets, unjustified allowances, and unnecessary expenditures as factors draining public funds while SOEs continue to rely on government bailouts.
“Many SOEs have been used as mere instruments for personal wealth accumulation by appointees. The chief executives, management, and boards of these enterprises are responsible for this situation. Some SOEs have become perennial loss-makers, draining public funds with bloated budgets, unjustified allowances, and unnecessary expenditures while relying on government bailouts as if entitled to them. Many of these entities are at their lowest point in the entire history of the Fourth Republic,” he said.
President Mahama further noted that many SOEs have been plagued by inefficiencies, corruption, and mismanagement, leading to consistent financial losses. He cited the 2023 State Ownership Report by the State Interests and Governance Authority (SIGA), which highlighted systemic inefficiencies and wasteful expenditures within these entities.
He therefore reaffirmed his commitment to reforming under-performing SOEs and ensuring they serve national interests.
He warned that loss-making SOEs will no longer be tolerated and will either be merged, privatised, or closed.
“I will assess you based on your performance. If you do not align with the pace of the reset agenda, you may be asked to step aside. If that adds to the horror movie, so be it,” he added.
