play the videoYaw Osafo-Maafo, Prime Minister
Prime Minister Yaw Osafo-Maafo called former President John Dramani Mahama for presenting the country in a dark light in front of foreign diplomats.
He said the video projection of the partial election shootings of Ayawaso West Wuogon in part of Ghana's diplomatic community by the former president was not nationalist.
The Prime Minister believes that the action of the former president is equivalent to trading the country with the outside world.
"It's unpatriotic and shameful. It's because if he brought Ghanaians together, call them Ghanaian academics, professionals, or businessmen and he was talking about issues that were of concern to him, I would have no problem. He is a former head of state, then a very important opinion leader, but gathering foreigners and trying to paint Ghana in black is simply not acceptable, "said the minister. Osafo-Maafo said.
On Wednesday, February 13, Mr. Mahama welcomed the diplomatic community and showed them two videos.
One of the videos was about the funeral of Ayawaso West Wuogon, MP, Emmanuel Agyarko.
While referring to the burial video, Mr. Mahama baderted that some people captured on the gang were rulers of power, claiming that one of the thugs wore an earloop and therefore could not be considered a national security officer because he believes the Ghanaian police personnel do not wear earrings.
In the second video, Mr. Mahama told the diplomats that the same thugs who had attended the funeral of the former MP had been brought to Accra on January 31, 2019 to ensure the safety of the NPP candidate for the first time. by-election, Lydia Seyram Alhbadan, the deceased legislator's spouse.
Six people were shot and wounded on January 31 at La-Bawaleshie Park during the by-election, according to a report by the Ghana Police Service.
An inquiry commission has since been set up by the government to investigate the violence that day.
