The founder and flagbearer of the All People’s Congress (APC), Hassan Ayariga, has urged the leader of the New Force Movement, Nana Kwame Bediako, to quit politics and focus on his business.

The APC leader argued that Nana Kwame Bediako, also called Cheddar, is more suited for business than the presidency.

He noted that while he is not sure why Cheddar joined the political race, he was certain Ghana’s presidency was not the place for him and his vision.

Speaking on Joy Prime, Ayariga stated that Cheddar’s success in business does not translate into an automatic qualification for the presidency.

He said presidential aspirants must have a vision and a policy to transform the country, not just wealth.

Ayariga also commented on Cheddar’s proposal to extend the sea to Kumasi.

According to the APC leader, the project is impractical and does not take into consideration the country’s current economic situation.

He said extending the sea to Kumasi would not address the economic needs of citizens in the country.

He said a more practical solution was to propose the construction of good roads to Kumasi and throughout the country.

He urged other political aspirants to formulate policies that address the country’s economic needs and ensure economic independence.
