Cancellation of The Convention event made
New Force ‘powerful’ – Cheddar
The Founder of the New Force Movement and Ghanaian Entrepreneur, Nana Kwame Bediako, popularly known as Cheddar or Freedom Jacob Caesar, has remarked that the cancellation of the much-anticipated The Convention event projected his movement.
Initially scheduled for Sunday, January 7, 2024, at Black Star Square to coincide with Ghana’s Constitution Day, the event was abruptly cancelled a few hours before its commencement.
The organizers cited a last-minute directive from the government as the reason for the cancellation.
According to the New Africa Foundation, the organizers of the event, all the speakers — Professor P. L. O. Lumumba, Julius Malema, Dr. Arikana Chihombori-Quao, and Peter Obi– and thousands of patrons had filled the Independence Square for the event when the directive for the cancellation reached them.
We genuinely wanted to bring these people to open the mindset of the youth of Africa. I knew that I would still come in as the man in the mask but wanted people to know when they found out later about the contributions of the New Africa Foundation we bring into the system. This event was going to impact based on what they will say. It wasn’t the plan to unveil a New Force. It was because the entity, or whoever decided to cancel the event, needed an excuse. But even if it was so, would it have been wrong for me to unveil my movement? No, it’s not a crime,” Nana Kwame Bediako asked.
He indicated that the press conference was a great opportunity to explain themselves to the public.
“I don’t think it’s just the cancellation that has helped me to achieve my aim. But the fact that they all agreed for us to do a press conference to explain ourselves actually sent the right message to the people.”
