Celebrities declaring their support for political parties has become an issue of concern as some have remarked that it ends up having adverse effects on the stars.
Ghanaian rapper, Edem, has revealed his team will not take less than one million Ghana Cedis to campaign for a political party as the country goes to the polls in November.
According to the versatile artiste, he sees nothing wrong with a political party approaching him and him accepting the offer. He however added that the amount is dependent on what his role will be required to play.
“I wouldn’t mind campaigning for any political party if they ask me to. I’m a brand and they are also looking for a brand that can help them reach the masses. If a party should call me, I will have my team take a look at their offer. And this will depend on what they want me to do because my team would have to know if they just need me to do a song, perform on their platforms or more. If a political party needs me to campaign for them, it will take nothing less than a million new Ghana cedis,” yfmghana.com quotes him to have told Hitz FM.
