'It was once Kalyppo' - Anyidoho reacts to Bawumia's coconut break during campaign

Samuel Koku Anyidoho, the former Deputy General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), has commented on a viral photo of New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, enjoying coconut water during a campaign stop.

Sharing the picture on his X page, Anyidoho, who has been commending Bawumia for his campaign style, compared the Vice President's coconut moment to then-candidate Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo's viral Kalyppo picture during the peak of his presidential campaign in 2016.

"It was once Kalyppo; now it is coconut water. A man must quench his campaign thirst one way or the other. It's not easy," Koku remarked.

Candidate Akufo-Addo's popularity surged after a picture of him sipping a box of Kalyppo fruit juice went viral in 2016.

The viral picture sparked a trend that saw several members of the New Patriotic Party and the candidate's supporters creating their own versions of the image with Kalyppo.
