King Paluta performs at Bawumia's rally

YEN.com.gh also reported that musician King Paluta performed Makoma at Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia's presidential campaign rally.

He made a strange walk as he performed the song and danced alongside New Patriotic Party officials led by Bawumia and other political figures.

Ghanaians speculated that the singer had been paid well, considering the show he put on, which subsequently charged the crowd ahead of the election.
