Nana Kwame Bediako, popularly known by many as Cheddar or Freedom Jacob Caesar, has confirmed that he is the face behind the New Force political movement.
On Sunday, December 7, he disclosed at a press conference that he is the new messiah to rebuild Ghana and the African continent.
“I am nothing to be scared of. I came to you as your salvation. I don’t invest in myself alone. I am investing in you. We need to educate. We need to uplift our children. We need to voice out to them.
“You are about to find out about this man in the mask because I never spoke a word; you were looking for me. I didn’t tell you whether I am into politics, whether I am an evangelist, whether I am a conventionist or a revolutionist. After this day, you will have to wait for me to share my policies and visions with you,” he said.
He announced after the government cancelled a pan-African programme, The Convention 2024, a few hours before its scheduled time at the Black Star Square in Accra.
Among the speakers were Dr. Arikana from Zimbabwe, P.L.O Lumumba from Kenya, Julius Malema from South Africa, and Peter Obi from Nigeria.
However, reports indicate that the event faced an unexpected disruption, with special security forces and the military intervening, ultimately leading to its cancellation.
The 43-year-old businessman said the circumstances surrounding the cancellation are what has made him to unmask himself prematurely and that he would have wanted to unveil himself and talk about his policies at the right time, he told the press.
“And if I’m the reason why the country or the government is not happy about these great voices coming to educate not only Ghana but also Africa, then I take this moment to sacrifice myself, to unveil myself, because I have much respect for these great leaders beside me. I would have taken my own time to tell you that I am. But for this very moment, I am sacrificing myself to let you know I’m that man,” he said.
