‘There’s money in it’ – Guru announces political ambition

Lapaz Toyota hitmaker Guru declares himself a future politician as he reveals that he is in school to make this ambition a reality.

The Ghanaian rapper, born Maradona Yeboah Adjei, has been slow on the musical front for a while. Finally, he reveals the why behind his silence. And that why has to do with pursuing another dream.

“I’ve gone back to school. You see, I must have the qualification, the certified CV, to stand anywhere or on any grounds to be that guy who is well-educated enough to represent the people.”

Guru told 3Entertainment’s Natalie Baah that his profession should not be a limitation to reaching higher grounds. He said, “To me, everything is possible. I think I can’t limit my dreams to just doing music alone. There is more to life than just music.”

He emphasised the doability of pursuing a political career, saying, “It’s possible. So I would love to do that. There’s money in it. People are spending millions of dollars just to win a seat, and based on your popularity, it makes it easier. Having the proper qualifications will help you know this field that you can operate and assess and impact lives.

“For instance, if I become a president right now, I have no knowledge of administration. So how would I handle it?
So I’m learning the stats and then using them to deliver. Give them the best of me. So I will represent you someday.”
