Speaking on Good Morning Ghana, Julius Kwame Anthony stated, “The person who became president on the ticket of your party was a drug addict dealing in the same illicit drug”.

His comment immediately drew a strong reaction from fellow panellist Kwesi Botchway, who questioned why the allegation was allowed to go unchallenged on the television programme.

Expressing his displeasure, Botchway said the NDC communicator’s remarks were inappropriate for a platform such as Good Morning Ghana.

 Kwesi Botchway stated, “So you allow that to go? Did you hear what he said, that the former president is a drug addict? You allow that to go on an august platform like Good Morning Ghana?”.

The claim about the former President’s alleged involvement with illicit drugs was an allegation made by Anthony and was not established by the comments provided.

However, Anthony’s remarks have ignited reactions on social media with netizens saying, “This fool called Akufo Addo a drug addict on TV and the host allowed it to pass?”.

An X user added, “This Julius Anthony guy is just an empty konko. He lost the argument on set and decided to insult President Akufo-Addo and refer to him as a drug addict. Let us say the same about the incompetent and clueless John Mahama, and you would be arrested. Bozo!”.

One more Ghanaian added, “This NDC communicator called President Akufo-Addo a drug addict, then quickly changed his tune and denied making the statement. Unfortunately for him, VAR caught everything! Let’s watch”.

Another netizen added, “NDC Deputy Communications Officer JULIUS KWAME ANTHONY has drawn widespread criticism after alleging on live television that former President NANA AKUFO-ADDO is a DRUG ADDICT, with many describing the remarks as deeply inappropriate and damaging to democratic discourse.

So low”

Some other X user stated, “A typical Ghanaian attitude: they know apologies exist, so they do whatever they want and simply apologise afterwards”.

A netizen, “@metrotvgh you guys allowed this on national television and because your host has sold his sense of reasoning to a political party he couldn’t call the stupid boy to order”.

“This fool called Akufo Addo a drug addict on TV and the host allowed it to pass?”, one X user added.

Another X user added, “So every day NDC and NPP will continue to speak foolishly; we have stupid journalists always given a platform to these useless guys to insult elderly people in the name of politics. As a journalist, you are asking the panel what the opponent said?”

One last X user claimed, “It is a KNOWN FACT.

In September 2011, WIKILEAKS  documents reveal that Nana Addo is a chain smoker of MARIJUANA.

From 2011 to date, Nana Addo has never contested this issue.

This issue is not coming from Julius Kwame Anthony. It is information released by WIKILEAKS since 2011”.
