<p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Nana Kwame Bediako, leader of the New Force and a presidential candidate in the 2024 general elections, has dismissed claims that he did not vote for himself during the December 7 polls.</strong></p>



<p> Addressing a press conference in Accra on December 23, 2024, Nana Kwame Bediako described the rumors as baseless and misleading, emphasizing his commitment to integrity and Ghana&#8217;s democratic process.</p>



<p>The speculations arose after reports revealed a surprising discrepancy in votes at his polling station, with viral videos and social media commentary suggesting that he cast his ballot for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) candidate, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.</p>



<p> However, Cheddar clarified the misunderstanding, explaining that after voting, he briefly paused to count the candidates on the ballot paper to confirm the total matched the 13 contestants.</p>



<p>Nana Kwame Bediako&#8217;s wife, Ruby, had earlier expressed frustration over her &#8220;missing vote,&#8221; as reports indicated that Bediako received only one vote at the polling station where both cast their ballots. Despite her disappointment, Ruby maintained an optimistic outlook, saying, &#8220;Ghana won, and that&#8217;s what matters. Let&#8217;s support the President-elect and move forward as a nation&#8221;.</p>

<p>Nana Kwame Bediako secured 84,478 votes in the election, representing 0.75% of the total valid votes cast. Reflecting on the outcome, he expressed gratitude to his supporters and reaffirmed his dedication to promoting peace. &#8220;Sometimes God gives you 1, sometimes 10, or even 9. I chose peace, and in that sense, I feel like I won,&#8221; he remarked.</p>



<p>The 2024 presidential elections saw National Democratic Congress (NDC) candidate John Dramani Mahama declared the winner with 6,328,397 votes. Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia of the NPP followed with 4,657,304 votes. The NDC also made history by securing a parliamentary majority with 185 seats</p>



<p>Nana Kwame Bediako&#8217;s press conference concluded with a call for unity and accountability. &#8220;Let&#8217;s move forward as a nation, focusing on building a stronger and more united Ghana,&#8221; he urged.</p>
