Issah Osman, a resident of Nima in the Greater Accra Region, has made a passionate appeal to Ghanaians, urging them to consider voting for businessman and philanthropist Nana Kwame Bediako, popularly known as Cheddar, to become the next President of Ghana.
According to Mr. Osman, Cheddar is a visionary leader with the unique qualities needed to bring the country back on track, drawing parallels between him and Ghana’s first President, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah. In a recent interview, Issah Osman emphasized that Cheddar’s forward-thinking approach and innovative ideas could be the answer to many of the challenges Ghana currently faces. “Cheddar thinks like Dr. Kwame Nkrumah,” Osman said. “I believe that if we give him the mantle of leadership, things will change hands down. He has the vision, the resources, and the capacity to transform this country.”
Cheddar, who has made a name for himself as a successful entrepreneur and real estate mogul, is well known for his efforts to empower the youth and his philanthropic endeavors across Africa. His manifesto, which has gained significant attention and resonated with many young people in the country, focuses on five key pillars: economic transformation, youth empowerment, education reform, infrastructure development, and healthcare improvement. At the core of Cheddar’s vision for Ghana is a complete overhaul of the economy. He believes in building a self-sufficient nation that can reduce its reliance on foreign aid and imports. Cheddar’s plan includes encouraging local production, particularly in agriculture and manufacturing. By investing in these sectors, he aims to create millions of jobs and provide economic opportunities for young Ghanaians. Additionally, he plans to support local entrepreneurs by providing access to funding and resources to grow their businesses. In one of his recent public addresses, Cheddar emphasized the importance of Ghana utilizing its natural resources for the benefit of its people. “We have gold, cocoa, oil, and many other resources, yet we are still struggling economically,” Cheddar stated. “It is time for us to take control of our resources, add value to them, and export finished products rather than raw materials. This will bring in more revenue and improve the lives of our people.”
Cheddar has long been a strong advocate for empowering the youth of Ghana, recognizing that they are the future of the nation. His manifesto outlines various initiatives aimed at providing young people with the skills and opportunities needed to succeed in today’s competitive global market. This includes massive investments in vocational training, entrepreneurship programs, and the establishment of tech hubs across the country. He believes that by equipping the youth with the right skills, Ghana can become a global hub for technology and innovation. “Our young people are talented, but they lack the opportunities to showcase their abilities,” Cheddar said. “I want to create an environment where every young Ghanaian has the chance to succeed, whether they want to start a business, become a tech innovator, or pursue a career in the arts.”
Education reform is another key component of Cheddar’s vision for Ghana. He believes that the current education system is outdated and does not adequately prepare students for the challenges of the 21st century. As part of his plan, Cheddar aims to introduce a more practical and skill-based curriculum that focuses on critical thinking, problem-solving, and entrepreneurship. His manifesto also includes plans to make education more accessible to all Ghanaians, regardless of their financial background. He has pledged to provide free education at all levels and invest in modernizing schools and universities across the country. “Education is the foundation of every successful nation,” Cheddar said. “We need to ensure that every child in Ghana has access to quality education, so they can contribute to the development of the country.”
Cheddar’s vision for Ghana also includes significant improvements to the country’s infrastructure. He has outlined plans to build modern roads, railways, and airports that will connect every region of Ghana, making it easier for people to travel and conduct business. His infrastructure plan also includes the construction of affordable housing to address the growing housing crisis in urban areas. One of Cheddar’s most ambitious goals is to turn Ghana into a major tourist destination in Africa. He believes that by developing the country’s tourism infrastructure, Ghana can attract millions of tourists each year, which will boost the economy and create jobs. “We have a rich history and culture that the world needs to see,” Cheddar said. “By investing in tourism, we can show the world the beauty of Ghana while generating income for our people.”
Healthcare improvement is another major pillar of Cheddar’s manifesto. He has pledged to build modern hospitals and clinics across the country, particularly in rural areas where access to healthcare is limited. Cheddar’s plan also includes investing in medical research and training more healthcare professionals to address the shortage of doctors and nurses in the country. Additionally, he has emphasized the importance of preventive healthcare, encouraging Ghanaians to adopt healthier lifestyles to reduce the burden on the healthcare system. “We need to focus on preventing diseases rather than just treating them,” Cheddar said. “By promoting healthy living and providing access to quality healthcare, we can improve the lives of all Ghanaians.”
Issah Osman’s call for Ghanaians to support Cheddar in the upcoming elections reflects the growing sentiment among many young people who see him as a beacon of hope for the future of the nation. With a clear vision for economic transformation, youth empowerment, education reform, infrastructure development, and healthcare improvement, Cheddar’s manifesto resonates with those who believe in the potential of Ghana and its people. As the country prepares for its next election, many are watching to see if Cheddar’s innovative ideas and bold leadership will be the key to unlocking a brighter future for Ghana.
