Lydia Forson has made a rallying cry for Ghanaians to go and vote.

The actress pointed out that on informed choices of who becomes the next President of Ghana and who will be elected as their Member of Parliament can move Ghana forwards.

She stated that refusal to vote is indirect support for people who only vote with their stomachs.

‘if you don’t vote as a citizen, you empower people who vote with their stomachs’. She wrote on her social media page.

According to her, anyone who does not vote now should not come with rants on social media about incompetence and mismanagement of the country’s resources later in the future.

"You’re under no obligation to vote in favour of the masses or what’s popular; vote for who YOU want even if it’s not the most popular choice. Stop acting like you don’t have a choice. You do."

"Your vote matters, and is the reason why a candidate must secure 50% + 1 to win an election, you can be the ONE. Recognize the power in your vote and use it to hold leaders accountable."

“If you don’t vote, you’re empowering people who vote with their stomach to choose a leader on your behalf. And the cycle will continue with you ranting on social media all day. Be part of the change you seek.”
