Moses Abor, a former Greater Accra Regional Youth Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has begged party members, particularly TikTokers, to stop engaging in politics of insults and personal attacks.
The former NPP Youth Organiser, Moses Abor, has condemned the persistent insults directed at the President and his family by some members of the party on social media.
saying the party should instead concentrate on holding the Mahama administration accountable.
According to Abor, constructive criticism is essential in a democracy; it should be focused on issues of national development rather than personal attacks on individuals and their families.
Speaking in a video, Moses Abor stated, “I am begging our TikTokers: politics of insults and attacke let stop it. It will not bring anything. Insulting a political figure, a president or a first lady, I condemn that thing. We should rather be saying things that will help Ghana and the NPP”.
“We cannot be going to court every day because of insults, knowing very well that there are a lot of things that the NDC are doing. These are expensive; people are hungry, and fuel prices have also been increased. A lot of things are going on that we have to turn our attention towards”.
“We should stop the politics of insults. As NPP people, our duty is to hold the government accountable by pointing out where it has failed to fulfil its promises, not by abusing people on TikTok,” he said.
In related news, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the former Vice President and NPP Flagbearer, has bluntly told the John Mahama government that the answer to falsehood is not handcuffs, courtrooms or crushing bail conditions.
The former vice president made this known while calling on the Ghana Police Service and the Attorney-General to discontinue the prosecution of an NDC organiser, Prince Aboagye, from Agona West over alleged false publications and offensive comments made about him.
According to Dr Bawumia, he neither lodged a complaint nor authorised the prosecution, stressing that he does not support arresting or prosecuting Ghanaians in his name over speech.
Dr Bawumia highlighted that the answer to offensive speech is better speech, and the answer to falsehood is truth, not handcuffs, courtrooms, and crushing bail conditions imposed on ordinary Ghanaians.
In a statement signed by the Communications Directorate Office of Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, NPP Presidential Candidate, read, “DR. BAWUMIA CALLS FOR THE DISCONTINUATION OF PROSECUTIONS UNDERTAKEN IN HIS NAME.
The attention of the Office of Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has been drawn to the arrest and arraignment of an organiser of the National Democratic Congress in Agona West, who is being prosecuted for allegedly publishing false news and making offensive comments about Dr Bawumia.
Dr Bawumia wishes to state, clearly and unequivocally, that he has neither lodged any complaint nor sanctioned any prosecution against this young man or any other citizen. He does not desire, and will not endorse, the arrest or prosecution of any Ghanaian in his name for speech.
Dr Bawumia has been the subject of insults and falsehoods throughout his public life. He has never responded with the instruments of state power, and he will not begin now. His conviction remains that the answer to offensive speech is better speech, and the answer to falsehood is truth, not handcuffs, courtrooms, and crushing bail conditions imposed on ordinary Ghanaians.
He therefore respectfully calls on the Ghana Police Service and the Attorney-General to discontinue this prosecution and any similar actions purportedly undertaken on his behalf, and to release the young man to return to his family and his livelihood.
Ghana’s democracy is strengthened when citizens, including those who oppose us, can speak freely without fear.
Dr Bawumia forgives the young man, wishes him well, and urges all political actors to channel their energies toward the issues that matter to the Ghanaian people”.
