Koku Anyidoho, Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) made the coup comment after he was asked a question in the Akan dialect, Solomon Nkansah, Director of Communications of the NDC, has said.
According to him, Mr Anyidoho although speaks the Akan dialect, does not fully understand the language hence his comment.
He indicated that the NDC party believes in democracy and will, therefore, campaign against the governing NPP ahead of the 2020 elections and secure victory through the polls.
His comments come on the heels of the arrest of the Deputy General Secretary of the party, Koku Anyidoho, who has been charged with treason for threatening on radio that there will be a civil coup d’etat to topple the Akufo-Addo administration.
He told Happy FM on Monday, 26 March that: “Somebody should tell Nana Akufo-Addo that history has a very interesting way of repeating itself.
“On January 13, 1972 a certain Col. Ignatius Kutu Acheampong led a movement that removed the Progress Party from power. Busia was the Prime Minister and Akufo-Addo’s father was a ceremonial president. Somebody should tell Nana Akufo-Addo that history has a very interesting way of repeating itself.
“There’ll be a civil revolt. There’ll be a people’s movement. During President John Mahama’s tenure didn’t we receive similar threats from the likes of Let My Vote Count and OccupyGhana.”
“There’ll be a civilian coup d’etat; there’ll be a social revolution and the movement is starting on Wednesday. He [Akufo-Addo] will be fed up at the presidency,” Mr Anyidoho said.
Speaking on on Accra FM Wednesday, Mr Nkansah noted that if the interview had been done in English, Mr Ayidoho, who does not fully understand the Akan dialect, wouldn’t have spoken the way he did.
“Koku is Ewe, although he speaks and understands the Akan dialect to some extent, he doesn’t understand it fully. If it had been me, Solomon Nkansah, an Akan, asked that question, I wouldn’t have approached it the way he did. If the interview had been done in English, I don’t think he would have spoken this way.”
He added: “The NDC wont stage any coup against Akufo-Addo’s government, we will campaign against the government ahead of the 2020 elections, Koku doesn’t have the capacity to stage a coup in this country. NDC won’t stage a coup, we believe in democracy and we will campaign against the NPP government.”

I don't know why this thing too goes around with the name Solomon. Was he given that name by the actual people who gave birth to him? Does he have the whitish substance called brains in his head? "Koku is an Ewe....he doesn't understand Twi" abufu s3m ne nkwaaaaaaasea ke ka. Yes he is an Ewe and that is the more reason why Ghanaians should be extremely careful and wary of his threat because we have a history of Ewe Coup makers to guide us. Gen. Emmanuel Kwasi Kotoka, Kutu Acheampong (Akan) but fronting for Nkegbe & Co; Jeremiah John Rawlings (1979; Jeremiah John Rawlings (1981) with the Tsikatas and the Great Ewe Mafia and the sort of tribal destruction they brought to other tribes' businesses. Remember the late Prof. Kofi Nyedevu Awonor. Now if another Ewe man who is power drunk (was sidelined by killer Mahama) opens his ***barred word*** akpeteshie scented mouth to spew out coup threats then a neonate, an im***becile and a maggggoooootttt (nyane mu aboaaaa) like solomon nkansah wants Ghanaians to ignore him??? Allow the law to decide and please NDC think twice on this issue and don't make any regrettable mistake to do anything untoward or suuuuuupid.
HMMMM! KOKU IS A EWE? NOT SURPRISE.THE EASY WAY TO POWER IS COUP D'ETAT. RAWLINGS, TSIKATA, ONE MAN ONE MACHET. THEY ARE ALL OF THE SAME FAMILY. ONLY TIME ALONE WILL TIME.

What is this one too defending? The man spoke both Twi and English and was emphatic with his statement. He was asked whether he meant what he said and he affirmed it.
