During the 2016 election campaign, Mzbel — real name — Nana Akua Addo — did not only endorse President Mahama and the NDC but she also went further to denigrate, mock and insult the NPP flagbearer, Nana Akufo Addo. In a cringe-worthy viral video, the “16 years” songstress mocked Nana for falling down while kneeling to pray. She also said Ghanaians should not vote for the 72-year-old because he is not a “presidential material”.
