Lincoln Bediako, the young son of Ghanaian businessman and politician Nana Kwame Bediako, also known as Cheddar, was spotted driving an expensive Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon in Accra.
A video circulating on social media showed him at a Shell filling station in the Airport Residential Area, where he refueled the luxury vehicle before driving off.
Many Ghanaians reacted with surprise, noting how quickly the second of Cheddar’s three sons has grown.
The video also captured several other high-end cars at the station, driven by wealthy individuals and young elites in Accra. Despite their elite status, Cheddar’s children usually stay out of the public eye, only making occasional appearances on social media.
Lincoln’s father, Nana Kwame Bediako, made headlines in 2024 when he ran for president under The New Force, a political movement he founded.
Although he was a newcomer to politics, he secured 84,478 votes, placing third with 0.75% of the total votes. His performance was notable, as he finished ahead of some of the more experienced politicians.
The election was ultimately won by John Dramani Mahama. The Electoral Commission declared him president after he secured 6,328,397 votes, representing 56.55% of the valid ballots. He defeated his closest rival, Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
