Ghanaian singer Sista Afia has recently revealed her excitement about voting for the first time. She made the announcement on social media, letting fans know that she’ll be partaking in this year’s elections. While Sista Afia didn’t share which political party she supports, she emphasized the importance of her vote and her belief in its impact on the election’s outcome.
Unlike some other Ghanaian artists, who have openly performed at political rallies and shown their support for specific parties, Sista Afia has maintained a neutral stance. By not performing at any political event or disclosing her preferred party, the singer seems focused solely on exercising her democratic right without adding a political spotlight.
This year’s election, now just two months away, has already seen a surge of strategies from political parties seeking to secure votes. Many parties have relied on influential celebrities and musicians to endorse their platforms and appeal to the masses. In Ghana’s evolving democracy, musicians like Sista Afia hold a unique position; they can inspire fans to participate in elections and shape perspectives, especially when many admire their influence.
With her decision to vote, Sista Afia joins a movement encouraging more young people and first-time voters to participate in Ghana’s democracy. Although she hasn’t revealed her political preference, her dedication to voting reflects her commitment to Ghana’s future.
As Election Day approaches, the excitement continues to grow among citizens and public figures alike, with many hoping that every vote counts toward building a prosperous Ghana.
