Former Deputy General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Samuel Koku Anyidoho, has weighed in on a viral photo of New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.

The photo shows Bawumia enjoying coconut water during a campaign stop.

Anyidoho, who has praised Bawumia's campaign style, shared the picture on his X page. He compared the Vice President's coconut moment to then-candidate Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo's viral Kalyppo picture from the 2016 presidential campaign.

“It was once Kalyppo; now it is coconut water. A man must quench his campaign thirst one way or the other. It's not easy,” Anyidoho remarked.

In 2016, Akufo-Addo's popularity surged after a picture of him sipping a box of Kalyppo fruit juice went viral. The picture sparked a trend where NPP members and supporters created their own versions of the image with Kalyppo.
