Ghanaian gospel musician, Evangelist Akwasi Nyarko, has publicly appealed to President John Dramani Mahama, First Lady Lordina Mahama, and the leadership of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) for financial assistance, stating that he is currently grappling with severe hardship.
In a heartfelt plea, the singer disclosed that he is battling hunger and unable to cater for himself and his children.
According to Evangelist Nyarko, he composed and released a campaign song in support of the NDC ahead of the 2024 general elections. However, he revealed that the move has had unintended consequences for his music career, particularly due to his roots in the Ashanti Region, a stronghold of the opposing political party.
