Samson Lardy, a renowned legal practitioner and journalist, has clashed with the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Member of Parliament for Akwatia, Bernard Bediako Baidoo, over controversial media personality Kevin Taylor.
The clash follows Bernard Bediako, during a panel discussion on the programme, trying to discriminate between the commentary made by media personality Kevin Taylor and Ghana Jollof.
The Akwatia MP claimed that Kevin Taylor only insults personalities, but Samson Lardy rebutted his defence, arguing that the US-based media personality is worse.
According to Samson Lardy, Ghanaians are not daft when they alleged that the NDC sponsors Kevin Taylor.
He further cited when Kevin Taylor came into Ghana and was never arrested after insulting numerous personalities.
Samson Lardy stated, “Kevin Taylor does more than insult. You see, you people, let’s call a spade a spade. When he calls the IGP and the CID boss, when he calls them criminals and calls them people who are corrupt? Is that an insult?
“When he came into this country, did they not know where to find him? Did they arrest him? That’s what the people are asking you. Did they arrest him?… He was policed, walked into the Supreme Court, and walked out free, and he’s jubilating around the place,” he fumed.
He added, “People are not daft too. People are saying that was so arranged. Otherwise, it would not even be in the country. All right. People are making connections.”
Bernard Bediako, however, argued that even though he disagrees with the commentary of Kevin Taylor, it is wrong for people to use him as justification not to punish others.
According to him, the fact that Kevin Taylor was not arrested for the wrongs people are saying he has done does not mean that nobody should be arrested if they act the same way or worse.
“So if 1000 people are arrested in connection with 20(sic), you keep mentioning Kelvin. Kelvin. Kelvin,” Bernard Bediako argued.
Samson Lardy reacted, saying, “He’s doing worse, and you people are watching, and people know that you sponsor… now the police have found sponsors of Ghana Jollof. When the person is sponsored by the people, nobody cares”.
In related news, meanwhile, Mustapha Gbande, the Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and Deputy Director of Operations at the Presidency, has said US-based social commentator Kevin Taylor does not speak for the NDC.
According to Mustapha Gbande, Kevin Taylor is a “stock” from the New Patriotic Party (NPP), adding that he has attacked him, President John Dramani Mahama, and several other government officials.
Speaking during an interview on Raw with Roselyn, he recounted an incident in which Kelvin Taylor allegedly attacked his character after he attempted to advise him.
Mustapha Gbande stated, “Kevin Taylor is not NDC. He doesn’t speak for and on behalf of the NDC. He attacked me, President Mahama and other people. Kevin Taylor came from the NPP. That’s their stock.”
“Even me, he’s attacked me before. You remember a demonstration was at the Jubilee House and people were there in the night. I had even travelled and returned and had my officers calling me. So I went there and asked them to disperse because their being there could allow intruders to do whatever it is, as they cannot do a vigil in a security square. He attacked many people and me.”
