<p>Osei, known for his candid opinions on national issues and politics, has been a vocal supporter of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) and has actively campaigned for President Nana Addo and the NPP in previous elections.</p>

<p>However, in what appeared to be an unexpected statement during the NPP manifesto launch in Takoradi, Western Region, Osei called for change in the 2024 elections.</p>

<p><em>"My name is Prince David Osei, and 7th November, no retreat, no surrender. We are voting for change and progress,"</em> he said after taking the podium.</p>

<p>With a significant following on social media and within the entertainment industry, Osei encouraged Ghanaians, particularly the youth, to engage actively in the electoral process. He stressed the importance of voting as a powerful tool for change, urging citizens not to be passive in the face of the country’s challenges.</p>

<p>Osei's call for change has ignited mixed reactions online. Over the years, he has been a staunch supporter of the NPP government, using his platform to advocate for transparency, accountability, and better governance.</p>

He warned that the NDC could lead the country into deeper problems.</p>

<p><em>"I know times are hard, but it is global. The UK is just recovering from a recession, America is tough, Canada is tough, and our neighbouring country, Nigeria, is equally tough. The alternative is not a solution. The alternative will send us into an abyss of disaster. Vote for progress, vote Bawumia, and vote Matthew Opoku Prempeh as the incoming president,"</em> Osei urged.</p>

Bawumia made chairman of NPP’s 2020 Manifesto Committee

<p>He also reminded Ghanaians of the support the NPP government provided during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, including various relief measures aimed at cushioning the economic impact on individuals and businesses.</p>
