Songstress Efya Nokturnal has reacted to the proposal by the New Force Movement leader, Nana Kwame Bediako, alias Cheddar, to dredge a sea in the Ashanti Regional capital, Kumasi.
She posed a question on her official X account on March 19, 2024, seeking answers to whether the people had presented Cheddar with a specific request before he made his proposal public.
"Did the people in Kumasi say they want a beach?" her post read. Her question elicited comical responses, largely.
"Lowkey they want it, but they're pretending," one user responded, while another tweeted: "Question for the gods."
Another had a lengthy take about why Cheddar had a good point and should not be ridiculed: "And did Cheddar say he is bringing the sea because of a beach?
"Despite the fact [that] we feel what Cheddar said [it is] impossible in our country, we shouldn't make [a] mockery of it; man made some good point citing Dubai as an example. We don't just have the money to do that here," he submitted.
What Cheddar said:
During an interview with Abusua FM in Kumasi, Cheddar said the 'sea to Kumasi' vision forms part of his ambition to open Ghana's Eastern and Western corridors to facilitate trade.
"I have travelled far and wide. I have seen many countries do that. Even Dubai, which was a typical desert, now has the sea. That is the kind of vision I have for the Ashanti Region. When we dredge the sea into the region, ships can dock in Kumasi," he stated.
Did the people in Kumasi say they want a beach ??????????
