    The media has a mission to undermine Cheddar – Da Hammer

    Music producer and entrepreneur Hammer has responded to Nana Kwame Bediako’s humble beginnings and his presidential campaign by embarking on a media tour.

    The New Force’s founder, Nana Kwame Bediako, better known by his stage name Cheddar, urged Ghanaians to focus on the advancements he can bring about for the nation rather than questioning the source of his wealth.

    Speaking on Tuesday on Asempa FM’s Ekosiisen, Mr. Bediako stressed that rather than criticising or questioning those who have achieved great success, Ghanaians should celebrate and learn from them.

    “I can not question someone who earns money and chooses to spend it. Even if he wants to spend his money on beer and khebab, he can choose to use it however he pleases.

    He disclosed that he started making money while employed for a telecom company, which he eventually sold and started reselling leftover parts.

    “It started with scraps and eventually accumulated piles of scraps, which I then gave to the steel yards.” Steel is purchased by steel yards, and as of right now, a business called B5 also purchases scraps, which it uses to make iron rods and then sells.

    “I started a business in Ghana with the money I made, and I am investing in the business.” He questioned, “So what do Ghanaians like if they do not like this?”

    Hammer responded to this on social media, voicing concerns about possible media sabotage as they attempted to discredit him by posing queries regarding his wealth source.

    According to him, radio and TV hosts’ assertions that Ghanaians are curious about Cheddar’s source of wealth are baseless and are part of a plot to malign Cheddar’s reputation.

    He wrote; “Ghanaians aren’t asking anything. It’s the media that’s on an agenda to discredit him before he’s heard. Simplicita”.

    “It’s hits different when a great man honours you”
