I don't want a political appointment, just book me to perform at events - Mzbel tells NDC

Singer Mzbel has indicated that she is not seeking a political appointment from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) but rather other opportunities within her field as a musician.

In a video shared on her social media pages on March 21, 2026, Mzbel said since the NDC assumed office, several events have been organised where musicians are booked and paid to perform, yet she has not been considered despite her visible support for the party during the campaign period.

“The only thing I’m concerned about is that my party is in power, yet I haven’t been given any opportunity to work. I’m not asking for a political appointment. I’m a musician, and I simply want to be booked to perform, just like my colleagues who are being paid for events.

“I supported the party and expected that when opportunities come up, I would be considered too. When I speak about being sidelined, it’s just because I want to be included when musicians are being selected, since I’m still active,” she said.

The singer further noted that she has also explored business opportunities tied to her entrepreneurial ventures.

Mzbel disclosed that she runs a restaurant and has formally submitted proposals to government institutions, seeking contracts to provide meals for staff, but has not received any positive feedback, noting that this was one of the benefits she expected when she campaigned for the party.

“I also run a restaurant and have submitted proposals for government institutions to patronise my services for staff meals. I believe that’s a fair request, especially considering the support I gave during the campaign,” she noted.

It hurts to hear people say I’ve been “sorted” and forgotten them. The truth is… I stood strong, I gave my all, I mobilized people out of pure belief,not because I was promised anything. And till now, nothing has been done for me or my team I have not turned my back on anyone. Im simply minding my own business
