It’s the same lies, the repetition never ends

Ghanaian artiste Worlasi has voiced his frustration with what he describes as the cyclical nature of politics in Ghana.

According to him, politics has become a continuous pattern of unfulfilled promises made by politicians every election cycle.

In an interview with 3FM on August 21, 2024, Worlasi expressed his frustration with the political system, noting that the same lies are repeated every four years.

“Every four years, you vote again and then it’s the same thing. It’s the same lies. It’s crazy how the repetition never ends,” he said.

He observed that shiny promises often attract those in need because of their pressing needs.

“It never ends because there will always be poor people, there will always be rich people. And so it would never stop. And those who need something will always go for what is shiny. It doesn’t matter whether they know they are lying or not. They need it now and so they’ll go for it. And it just saddens me to see that,” he added.

Worlasi’s comments come at a time when many Ghanaians feel that political promises rarely translate into tangible improvements in their lives.

Currently, the country is gearing up for its upcoming general elections on December 7, 2024.

Meanwhile, NDC flagbearer and former President John Dramani Mahama will be competing against Vice-President and NPP flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, New Force Movement leader Nana Kwame Bediako, and Movement for Change leader Alan Kyerematen.
