Nana Kwame Bediako, also known as Cheddar, has expressed concern about the increasing prevalence of political misinformation on social media.
On January 26, 2024, the head of the New Force Movement posted on X, sharing a 24-second video featuring two shots of himself. In the initial frame, he highlights that his perspectives were altered using technology.
"eii Ghana ay3 hu oo! Artificial intelligence manipulation has the power to ignite our tense political climate and inflame the public.
"The Authorities should step in as this could happen to anyone, endangering relationships and reputations. Let us join forces to stop these incessant attacks.#TheNewForce, the voice of the people," he captioned his post.
In the manipulated portion of the video, he is heard purportedly saying, "Mark it on the wall, Ghanaians. if NPP and their corrupt government take my name and image from the election ballot in 2024, I promise you this country will sink."
That portion of the video has a "fake" label slapped across it.
"If we don’t get on our feet to turn our own resources and refine them into things that the world will also demand from us, our nations will benefit from it…," he said in the other part, which reflects his original view as captured in an interview.
Political analysts have raised concerns about the possible repercussions of deliberate political disinformation and manipulation of information in the upcoming 2024 general elections.
Cheddar assumed his political role earlier this year by announcing his presidential candidacy. However, he has voiced his frustrations regarding the obstacles he encounters, citing political intimidation and bureaucratic hurdles with the Electoral Commission.
