The Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) has postponed its Presidential Evening Encounter with Nana Kwame Bediako, popularly known as Cheddar, founder and leader of the New Force Movement.
The event, initially scheduled for Wednesday, September 18, 2024, was rescheduled following Cheddar’s unexpected withdrawal.
In a statement, the IEA cited “unavoidable circumstances” as the reason for the change.
“The Evening Encounter at the Institute of Economic Affairs scheduled for today, September 18, 2024, with the New Force Movement has been rescheduled because of unavoidable circumstances. A new date will be announced in due course,” the statement read.
Cheddar was expected to speak at the event but withdrew without providing any reasons for his decision.
The IEA had unveiled its lineup for the Presidential Evening Encounters on September 13, with Cheddar originally slated as the first speaker.
The leader of the Movement for Change, Alan Kyerematen, is still scheduled to appear on September 24.
The IEA has also planned two presidential debates, set for October 22 and November 19, 2024.
The rescheduled date for Cheddar’s encounter will be announced soon.
