National Organizer for the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Kofi Adams has taken a swipe at President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.
Speaking to Kwame Tutu on Frontline on Rainbow Radio 87.5Fm, Kofi Adams called on the president to think before he speaks. Kofi Adams was reacting to President Nana Addo Dankwa’s claims that the NDC as a party, can be credited for scrapping all the pro-poor policies introduced by the NPP.
According to President Akufo-Addo, “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 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”.
President Akufo-Addo made this known on Saturday, 2nd December, 2017, when he delivered a speech at the 60th Anniversary Celebrations of the Kumasi Academy, in Kumasi.
But reacting, Kofi Adams said, the president does not understand what he says and sometimes when a speech is written for him, he just read it without seeking for clarity. He should think before he speaks. He should not just speak for the purpose of it but he should seek clarity on issues before saying anything. He is a talkative and has lost it.’’
When asked if his response was not harsh, he said, it is not harsh because if the president read the handing over notes presented to him, he would not be making these comments.
‘’It is very clear that the president has not read his handing over notes. He is still in the campaign mode and has refused to realize that he is now in charge. Ghanaians are complaining that things are though. He has refused to find out why Ghanaians are complaining. He has refused to ask why his pro-poor policies have failed to solve the problems Ghanaians are experiencing.
‘’The president should read his handing over notes and get things right before saying anything. He is the president of Ghana and not a candidate campaiging for a position,’’ he stressed.

I don't know why the media keeps giving these empty heads airtime to just spew out anything. How on earth can you say that the president does not understand what he says? How insulting. What is the basis of that? You had all the resources and the power, yet the man defeated you, now all you can say is he does not understand... If you lost to him, and he does not understand, then what do we say about you? At least he reads and does not understand, you cannot even read, let alone understand.
KOFI ADAMU IDDI ---- A KOTONKOLI MAN U ARE BIG ***barred word*** ...... DO NOT CALL OUR PRESIDENT NAMES ... ***barred word*** BOY
Kofi now Ghanaians has seen that you are REALLY CONFUSED PERSON. From ALL what you have said above, you said NDC was able to sustain the Pro-Poor policies Kuffour implemented. What happened to these in NDC 8 years: Free Maternal, NHIS, School Feeding, Free for School Children, Nurses & Teacher Trainees Allowances. As for the NHIS NDC told us that they will make it one term payment, what happened? Kofi. You were able to collapse all these Policies which affect Low and Middle class in the country. You were talking trash. NDC fear the GOOD pro-poor policies being introduced by Nana Addo. By the way NDC CANNOT change Ghanaians mind from this Good Policy. With even only Free SHS, it will prevent NDC from coming to Power over years coming.
WHO'S KOFI ADAMU? WHO BORN THAT THING? WAS HE RAISED FROM HOME OR STREET? CAN KOFI ADAMU COMPARED HIS FATHER TO NANA ADDO? I AM NOT SURPRISED AT ALL. IS ONLY NDC WHICH WILL ACCEPT THIS THING AS AN ORGANIZER. I DON'T BLAME HIM
Cost of living was already from last year. the president is not a magician. What kind of people are we kwraa. We want everything cheap anf free. Lazy people.
Fellow Ghanaians , just look critical in the face of that rotten egg personailty of ***barred word*** minded kofi Adams .If he will stop insulting elders some of us will continuing stripe him of his uncultured behaviour , very use less and ***barred word*** t man he is getting close to his grave
I am totally shock by uncultured language of this man called Kofi Adams. Was he actually raised in a home by a parents. Does he have elders in his home, house, town and the party he is speaking for. No wonder they are in opposition. if we are to talk about people who speak without talking then Kofi Adams should look within himself, his party and his hometown chief. these are elements who want to hold on to straws in NDC to survive. he should be nurtured
NANA PLEASE SIT UP, COST OF LIVING IS GRADUALLY INCREASING FOR THE ORDINARY GHANAIAN.THANK GOD I AM NOT PART OF THAT STRUGGLE.
