Nana Kassim Okyere Obeng, the Obengkrom Chief in the Abura-Asebu-Kwamankese Constituency of the Central Region, has launched a scathing attack on the Member of Parliament for the area, Felix Kwakye Ofosu.
According to the Obengkrom Chief, Felix Kwakye Ofosu is deceitful.
Nana Kassim Okyere Obeng accused the member of parliament of neglecting his constituents after winning political office.
Speaking to members of the Minority delegation and residents of Obengkrom near Asuansi, Nana Kassim Okyere Obeng expressed frustration, saying, “Our MP, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, is also deceitful. Before he became an MP, we used to communicate frequently, but now when I send him messages, he does not even respond”.
Obengkrom Chief also criticised President John Mahama over his reduction in cocoa prices.
According to Obengkrom Chief, President John Mahama is “a cheat” who has failed to fulfil his promises to cocoa farmers.
He further declared that President John Mahama should step down for someone else to take over if he cannot rule the country.
He added, “For us, the farmers, we have realised that President John Dramani Mahama is a cheat. We have seen that he is someone who does not fulfil his promises”.
“At this point, if he cannot continue ruling the country properly, then he should step down for someone else to take over,” he added.
In other news, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, the Government Communications Minister, has said LGBTQ+ issues are not a priority for Ghanaians, who wake up each day focused on jobs, salaries and making ends meet.
According to Kwakye Ofosu, the LGBTQ+ subject does not rank high among the priorities of ‘ordinary’ Ghanaian citizens.
Speaking on JoyNews “The Pulse” today, Kwakye Ofosu called the debate “a waste of time” and stated there is “nothing to apologise for” regarding the President’s position on the matter.
Kwakye Ofosu stated, “This is not a major issue. It’s another waste of time. You know, NPP, they specialise in wasting the time of everybody”.
“When Ghanaians wake up in the morning, their focus is on how to get to work, how to earn a salary, and how to make ends meet. Is that bill the number one priority of every Ghanaian? It is not. It has no meaning,” he argued.
“The things that matter the most are the issues that affect the lives of Ghanaians,” he said.
“Which president, serving or seeking to become president, should make LGBTQ+ the most important issue? Is it not about the welfare of the ordinary people?” he questioned.
“There is nothing to apologise for,” he concluded.
