A netizen on X has reacted to the news that Ghanaian actor Agya Koo has spearheaded a movement to establish a new political party called the Ghana First Party.
According to the netizen, Agya Koo will be wasting his resources, as even Nana Kwame Bediako, commonly known as Cheddar, could not make any headway in his first attempt in the 2024 elections.
According to Agya Koo, all sixteen regions are preparing to contribute to the establishment of Ghana First.
He highlighted that the Ghana First Party will prioritise the needs of ordinary citizens.
“We all know that the two biggest political parties in the country, the NPP and the NDC, always dominate the political space. As a result, if not NPP, then NDC will win power. That is why we have thought about bringing a third force to compete with them. We are bringing a party that thinks about the traders, a party that can bring tourism and all developments,” Agya Koo told the media.
Some Ghanaians reacting to Agya Koo’s remarks stated, “Ghana is obviously running a two-party system. Any other party is just wasting its time and resources”.
Another X user added, “Really? Interesting developments. Not a bad idea, though, but the critical question is, what exactly is he going to be doing differently from the other smaller parties to attract many of the neutrals and possibly other members from the existing political parties to make his party formidable?”.
“Sometimes I just be like, don’t those new parties we get every 4 years, who tend to get 3rd place after the election, no, why don’t they simply merge to be one big party and defeat NDC-NPP. By the way, what’s the real motivation? Doesn’t he see any future in NPPP any longer?”, a netizen added.
One X user added, “It’s heartbreaking. How our neighbouring countries are laughing at us. I’m shocked that people would waste their time on this ignorant, hungry, illiterate. This is how useless the NPP has become. They couldn’t even get a better human being to do this for them?”.
The Veteran Ghanaian actor, in the past, was seen on numerous campaign platforms of the NPP but has now highlighted that Ghana needs a third force to address the shortcomings of both the NDC and NPP, which is why he decided to form this coalition.
Agya Koo also supported Kennedy Agyapong during the NPP’s presidential primaries.
Last year, Agya Koo called for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to return to power, citing claims that Ghanaians are happy under the leadership of President John Dramani Mahama.
He claimed that NPP must come back to power, and Ghanaians are crying.
In a social media post on September 17, 2025, Agya Koo stated, “Ghanaians are not happy with President Mahama, and many are calling for the NPP government to return to power. They say things have changed as compared to the tenure of former President Akufo-Addo, and if that is how the people feel, then indeed the NPP must come back to power. But the question is, who do we present?”
“You all know that I am an actor, a comedian, and a musician, but please, do not insult me, because I speak with good intentions. I only echo the concerns of the people,” he said.
In related news, Agya Koo has stated that he has not seen any contributions by the Ashanti Regional Minister, Dr Frank Amoakohene.
According to Agya Koo, Dr Frank Amoakohene hasn’t done anything exceptional.
Speaking in an interview on Nashbaff Media aired on March 24, 2026, he stated, “People think bringing Agya Koo will shift attention from their event, but that’s not necessary. I don’t need to meet Dr Frank Amoakohene before supporting anything that benefits the country. If there’s something good to be done, I’ll support it on my own.
“When Akufo-Addo built the film school, I saw it as a positive move and spoke about it so people would take notice. Whoever is in power, if they do something that will help the next generation, I will also speak up and support it.
“I haven’t attended any of Dr Frank Amoakohene’s events, so I can’t speak on what he is doing,” he said.
