Former Deputy Minister for Communication Mr. Felix Kwakye Ofosu has alleged that, some chiefs are intimidating critics of the government for bad governance.
He says Chiefs who have developed the habit of intimidating people who speak against the Akufo Addo’s government must put a stop to it.
According to Mr. Kwakye Ofosu, nothing will stop people like himself from continuing to criticize the current government.
“We are not going to be intimidated by Chiefs who support Akufo-Addo’s bad government. It can never happen and to those Chiefs who have been making such comments, I will plead with them to stop it”, he told Power FM in an interview monitored by MyNewsGH.com.
The Former Deputy Minister is of the view that there are things under this current government are not going on well which people need like him to speak freely without being harassed or threatened.
Mr. Ofosu Kwakye also accused President Akufo-Addo for being the brain behind Chiefs who intimidate people who speak against his ‘bad’ government.
“We have to speak against it because it is something that is destroying the country. If he thinks he can intimidate some of us in this country then he is wrong. Akufo Addo is wasting the country’s money. However, if he thinks he will intimidate some of us who speak against his government then he should rethink about it because it will never happen”, he cautioned.
Kwakye Ofosu thinks that, every individual Ghanaian has a stake in the country’s governance hence nobody should be prevented from exercising his political freedom.
