“NANA EBA” SONG ………… NANA AKUFO ADDO : EDEM SPEAKS.


Composing political songs has become an interesting venture for some musicians in Ghana especially in a political season.

Four years ago Daddy Lumber composed a song titled “Nana ye winner” for the NPP flag bearer Nana Addo, which if not mistaken became the most popular song of that season though it did not result positively in the outcome of the election for the NPP.

Denning Edem Hotor popularly known as Edem released a song early this year title “Nana Eba” a song that most bloggers ruminate as a campaign tune for Nana Addo.

In an interview with Original Soundboy on Diamond FM Drive Time Edem explained why he titled the song Nana Eba and why the cover picture has Nana Akufo Addo wearing a crown in it.

“the song and picture is a form of literature left to be decrypted by the public. And to better understand the literature one will need to listen carefully to the song” He said.

He however repudiated to admit or deny if the song is politically motivated and composed for the NPP flag bearer .
