Samini, other celebrities had nothing for endorsing NPP – Gabby

A leading member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko, says the party never paid a pesewa to any of the celebrities who campaigned massively all over the country for victory ahead of the 2020 polls happening tomorrow, December 7, 2020.

Media reports speculated months ago that, musician Samini including other celebrities who endorsed the second bid of President Akufo-Addo were paid huge sums of monies.

However Gabby says such actions did not happen in the NPP adding that sometimes the celebrities even  support with their funds.

“At least for those supporting Nana Akufo-Addo and the NPP they do so with their conscience and even cheque books and not their lawyers and managers. They are citizens not spectators.”

He added “When a celebrity endorses a party or candidate it is seen as a transaction. Please! Let’s not insult them! I see them donating their might everyday. Yesterday, one big name came in quietly to donate cash. Respect our celebrities. At least for those supporting Nana Akufo-Addo and the NPP they do so with their conscience and even cheque books and not their lawyers and managers. They are citizens not spectators”.
