After their meeting, Nana Addo shared photos together on his Facebook page with the caption: "Ghanaian highlife musician, Lucky Mensah, visited me at my Nima residence this morning. He presented me with a copy of his latest song, "Yɛresesamu", which endorses my candidature ahead of the December election."

Lucky Mensah, on Tuesday (Sept. 6) disassociated himself from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) after 8 years of working together.

In 2008, Lucky Mensah released "Come Back To Me" track for the NDC, and it became one of the party’s official campaign songs.

Four years later, he released that controversial "Nkratuo" song, a satiric song which sends a message through one ‘Tawiah’ to tell his big brother ‘Atta’ that things are not going well and that the situation has gone very bad.

The song was perceived to be a direct message from Lucky Mensah to the then President Atta Mills that his government was failing and things were not going well in the country.

But even before the NPP could gain some political currency from "Nkratuo", the music right of the song was bought by an NDC businessman.
