In a post that went viral (because who doesn't love a good political farce?), the presidential hopeful of the New Force Movement, Nana Kwame Bediako, affectionately known as Cheddar (yes, like the cheese), claimed that the UK Parliament invited him for a grand speech.

Cheddar shared a video of his "engagement," claiming he submitted a petition and apologised on behalf of African leaders for their mismanagement. Because, you know, that's how geopolitics works – like a late-night talk show confession.

"I'm the first to present a petition on English soil in the UK parliament urging the world to refrain from using their foreign influences to instigate our political systems," Cheddar declared, presumably with a poker face.

The internet, of course, exploded with laughter and disbelief. "Was he really invited?" people asked, grabbing their popcorn.

Fact-Check Ghana (the ultimate party pooper) investigated the claims and presents the laugh-out-loud facts below.

Cheddar's "Historic" Address Was More Like a Private Gig

The UK Parliament is like a grand palace with two main wings: the House of Commons (with comfy green leather benches) and the House of Lords (with even comfier red leather benches).

Cheddar's event wasn't held in either of these prestigious chambers. It's like claiming you're performing at the Royal Opera House, but you're actually in the alley behind the building.

When Fact-Check Ghana reached out to the UK Parliament's Press Office, they confirmed Cheddar wasn't officially invited. "We can confirm that this was not an official Parliamentary event. It was hosted by MP Siobhain McDonagh," said a spokesperson, trying not to giggle.

So, Cheddar's address was more like a private stand-up routine hosted by an MP, not a formal state address.

Where Did Cheddar's "Historic" Speech Take Place?

Cheddar held his "engagement" in one of the committee rooms of the UK Parliament. The video shows a large artwork in the background, which Fact-Check Ghana identified as "Alfred Inciting the Saxons to Prevent the Landing of the Danes" by George Frederic Watts.

Yes, Cheddar was speaking in front of a painting of a king trying to stop a Viking invasion. The historical irony is absolutely delicious.

The event was held in House of Commons Committee Room 10, confirmed by an insider from the Heritage Collection department of the UK Parliament.

MPs Can Book Committee Rooms for a Spot of Tea (or a Laugh)

Committee rooms can be booked by MPs for private meetings, like hosting a cheese and wine night (pun intended this time). MP Siobhain McDonagh booked the room for Cheddar's comedic performance.

No International Media Coverage (Shocking, Right?)

If Cheddar was truly invited by the UK Parliament in an official capacity, you'd think the BBC or the Guardian would have been there. Instead, the event was mainly captured by Ghanaian or African Diasporian news channels. It's like throwing a party and only your imaginary friends and their pets show up.

In conclusion, Cheddar wasn't invited by the UK Parliament, and his address wasn't an official event. It was more like a private comedy show in a fancy room with a historic painting as a backdrop. Now, who's ready for some more political satire? Pass the popcorn!

When politics and cheese mix, you know it's going to be a good time.
