Renowned Ghanaian musician and political figure, A-Plus, has taken aim at President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, accusing him of forgetting the struggles he faced to secure the presidency as his term comes to a close.
In a recent outburst on UTV, A-Plus did not hold back in criticizing the president, whom he had previously endorsed as the best candidate in the 2016 elections.
During his impassioned speech, A-Plus highlighted a viral video that circulated on social media showing President Akufo-Addo requesting seated chiefs to stand and greet him at a public event. The video, lasting only 12 seconds, captured the president approaching traditional leaders, who rose at his signal and that of his security personnel before receiving his greeting.
A-Plus did not shy away from expressing his disappointment in Akufo-Addo, stating, “If you put your trust in Akufo-Addo, he will let you down. He’s wrapping up his term, having deceived everyone. He begged for votes, and now he expects chiefs to stand for him.” This sentiment underscores A-Plus’s belief in the president’s perceived disregard for the concerns of the Ghanaian populace as his time in office draws to a close.
The specific details and location of the event in the video remain undisclosed, but the footage has sparked conversations online, with users pointing out instances where President Akufo-Addo greeted seated chiefs in contrast to this particular incident.
A-Plus’s comments on MzGee’s show have reignited discussions about leadership, accountability, and expectations in the political landscape of Ghana.
