Ghanaian highlife artist, Dada Kwakye Duah, popularly known as Dada KD, has shared his experience of being mistreated by some celebrities during the 2020 general elections.
He explained that he devised a campaign strategy to support the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and President Nana Akufo-Addo through a street musical concert.
Dada KD disclosed thatt he, along with actor Kofi Adu aka Agya Koo and a certain Pasco, presented the idea to President Akufo-Addo, who then approved and provided funds for their initiative.
In a recent inyterview, Dada KD disclosed that he felt mistreated when Agya Koo appropriated GH¢40,000 worth of instruments and Pasco received a Tundra vehicle, while he, the originator of the idea, received nothing.
“I met two people and went to see the president with them to make a plea. Agya Koo and Pasco were the ones I accompanied. We proposed a campaign strategy involving music and concerts to support Akufo-Addo during the 2024 elections.
“Akufo-Addo responded to our request by providing funds and other resources. They allocated two billion Ghana Cedis for purchasing instruments and a car for the street campaign. In the end, Agya Koo took GH¢40,000 worth of instruments for himself, Pasco took the Tundra, and I received nothing, despite being the one who introduced the idea,” he stated.
Dada KD expressed his disappointment with his colleagues, feeling betrayed by their actions.
