Napo strikes again: Ghanaians don’t like the truth

NPP running mate for the upcoming elections, Matthew Opoku Prempeh has reaffirmed his assessment of President Akufo Addo as the Best President Ghana has produced since independence.
Napo, as he is popularly referred to, stirred controversy in his inaugural speech during his unveiling as running mate to Dr. Bawumia in the upcoming elections when he declared in Twi that “even your Nkrumah” comes nowhere near President Akufo Addo.
His comments drew the ire of many political commentators who described him as arrogant. But in response to criticisms Napo said, “In Ghanaian politics, If you say the truth they say you are disrespectful, but they clap for you when you lie,” he reiterated in reference to his claims that President Akufo Addo is Ghana’s most successful president since independence.
This was during a visit to the Tetrete Okuamoah Sekyim II, Omanhene of Wasa Amenfi Traditional Area at Wassa Akropong in the Western North Region.
