I\u2019m also a street person and today\u2019s endorsement is for every street person.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking earlier, Musician Skinny Boy Kpanto said, he was moved by President Weah\u2019s style of leadership since coming to power in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDespite making some critical songs against this government, I\u2019m still alive; it\u2019s against this backdrop that I have thought it wise to fund his campaign and to endorse his reelection bid\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n<p>He thanked God for all He has done in his life and declared his membership for the CDC, saying \u201cI\u2019m here today to join the CDC.
