NDC Member of Parliament for Yapei Kusawgu, John Jinapor says President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo is playing the role of a serial caller than a president in his style of communication.
Mr. Jinapor, who finds the president’s mode of communication as “unfortunate”, noted that “he [Nana Addo] must be advised to behave like a president”.
The former deputy Minister for Power in the Mahama-led government comment comes after the president responded to remarks from some National Democratic Congress MPs that his flagship free Senior High School policy will collapse in five years, saying it will be "sustained."
Former President John Mahama, who’s set to run for president again, has questioned the full implementation of the program when the constitution says it should be done progressively.
In addition, some NDC communicators and MPs have predicted the collapse of the program.
However, President Akufo-Addo on Saturday said "free SHS is here to stay," adding that the NDC has a record of scrapping pro-poor policies.
“I know, and I am sure I am not the only one who has heard, the people who are mounting political platforms, speaking on television and radio, and putting up posts on social media, hoping and praying for this policy to collapse,” he said at the 60th Anniversary Celebrations of the Kumasi Academy, in Kumasi.
He continued, “We know those who have a record for scrapping pro-poor policies – nursing and teacher trainees will bear testimony. I wish to assure them that Free SHS will be sustained, that Free SHS is here to stay. The overwhelming majority of Ghanaians support the choice that I have made in implementing Free SHS”.
Speaking on Neat FM’s morning show dubbed ‘Ghana Montie’, Mr. John Jinapor said “The President is rushing with his policies. He should be diplomatic in his choice of words and comport himself as a president. He should talk like an elected president. He [President Nana Addo] should move away from his political campaign time and act like a president. The NDC has no intention of collapsing any policies”.

The disrespect that sent them into opposition seems to continue. Have they learned lesson at all? What is Jinapo seeking to achieve by being disrespectful to Nana Addo? Is it part of what they learned in Russia or from the NDC ideological institute? I wish you long life in opposition?

I am very disappointed in this minister. Does it mean that if you are voted into power you should treat those who voted you into power as riff Raff's?? Was Nana Addo not a former MP? Are the MPs no more the President colleagues? By their fruits you shall know them. Use the less privilege to gain power and afterwards treat them like filthy rags
Hello Hello, Please you people should give respect to elders! the Bible says; children obey your father and mother that your days may be long ......? Jinapor, Jinapor, Jinapor, insult would not take you to any where and you are cursing yourself by insulting elders, ministers, pastors and so on. what have you seen on this earth. you are not God! look at you, behave well, ok? otherwise you would die a mature death.
St..upid f0ol.
Sad indeed. Was Jinapor in Ghana when JDM referred to his opponent's views as baloney? Did he hear JDM claim that only ex-presidents could advise him?This current President is one of the best in Africa today with a clear and bold developmental visions today. Let's pray for President instead of condemnation.
Just listen to thus little brat!
***barred word***
SAAAA? YETI WAI MR AMERI DEAL.HOPE YOU ARE GETTING READY FOR COURT?
Listen to this m0ron oo. Who in this country speaks ru*bbi*sh than Junapor and his NDC bunch of sharp teethers? Led by John Mahama, you insult and attack, anyone who disagree with you. You insult Nana Addo, pastors, doctors, nurses, name them. The northern bunch are most guilty. This Jinapor, Bawa, Adongo, ABA Fuseini, Suhyini, Mutala, etc are the most acidic tongues in the NDC. Even Otokunor and Nkansah have pulled the brakes a bit. They insisted that Nana can never be president. But today he is president. Let them continue to attack in opposition, and they'll remain there for a LONG TIME!
