He shared several plans from the NDC's Resetting Ghana manifesto, which was recently launched in the Central Region.

According to KOD, the NDC has considered plans to develop a pension scheme aimed at sensitising creatives to save money in their prime for their old age.

He also shared a plan from the manifesto to establish a pay-per-view streaming channel for authentic local Ghanaian shows.

KOD added that the NDC was considering a special initiative dubbed Ghana Music World should it come to power after the 2024 elections. The initiative will focus on enhancing tourists' experience when they troop into Ghana when Detty December kicks in.

The socialite maintains that December in Ghana is an initiative he started as a broadcaster on Live FM in 2013, several years before the Detty December and Year of Return frenzy began.
