Highlife musician, Lucky Mensah has thrown his weight behind New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) member, Odeneho Kwaku Appiah to win the party’s upcoming Ashanti Regional Chairmanship race ahead of the 2024 general elections.
According to him, Odeneho is the best man to lead the party in the Ashanti Region to retain power in 2024.
He has as a result released a new single to endorse him to win the position.
The song is asking the membership of the NPP to replace the current chairman, Antwi Boasiako popularly known as Chairman Wontumi with Odeneho who is otherwise known as Koka.
It also eulogizes him as the right man for the job because he can do it.
Lucky touted Koka’s capabilities in the song and described him as a better leader for the people at the moment than anyone else in the region.
He believes Odeneho has done it at the constituency level and is ready to serve at the Regional level.
Odeneho is the incumbent chairman of Afigya Kwabre South.
The new song has been circulating on social media since Monday and it is believed to be getting the attention of NPP membership.
This is however not the first time Lucky Mensah is endorsing an NPP candidate with a song. He did that for President Akufo-Addo leading up to the 2016 and 2020 general elections.
He was a well-known sympathizer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Party but he disowned the NDC in the run up to the 2016 general elections, asserting that the then President Mahama failed woefully to lead nation’s development agenda, subjecting many into economic hardship and suffering.
He later paid a visit to the residence of Nana Akufo-Addo to present him with a copy of his track then, ‘Yeresesamu,’ in September 2016 to support the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) 2016 election campaign.
He has since supported the NPP.
Leading up to the 2020 general elections he again recorded a song to endorse President Akufo Addo.
The President won both elections.
