Popular Ghanaian actress Christiana Awuni has refuted claims that she was paid by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to campaign for the party.
In an interview with Zionfelix, Awuni emphasised that her support for the NDC is based on principles, not financial gain.
"People say I have taken money to campaign for the NDC, but that’s not true," she clarified.
Awuni explained that if she were motivated by money, she would have supported the New Patriotic Party (NPP), as they currently control the state's resources.
"If I am greedy and want to enjoy politics money, I would rather opt for NPP because they are the ones handling the state’s money currently. But because I’m not greedy, I will not campaign for NPP like some of my colleagues," she stated.
Awuni listed out her reasons for supporting the NDC and its presidential candidate, John Dramani Mahama.
She pointed out Mahama’s promises to restart abandoned projects, reopen banks to support traders, improve schools, offer free first-year university education, and revive the Free SHS initiative.
"We want Mahama to prioritise health, education, and employment. Akufo-Addo’s government is a mess," she said.
