National Organizer of Liberal Party of Ghana, Asani Tanoh has criticized Bishop of The Potter’s House, Thomas Dexter Jakes Sr., popularly called T.D. Jakes over the effusive praise the latter heaped on President Akufo-Addo's administration quite recently.
In a video circulated widely on social media, T.D. Jakes, while introducing the Ghanaian leader to his audience as one of the speakers for his upcoming summit on leadership said: “I have, for some time, watched with amazement, the President of the Republic of Ghana and the Commander-In-Chief of the Ghana Armed Forces. His Excellency Nana Akufo-Addo will speak at our International Leadership Summit this month”. And, in case you are not up to speed on how things are going in Africa; Ghana is one of Africa’s wealthiest countries; he [Akufo-Addo] has completely turned it around.”
“It is the largest producer of gold on the continent and the world’s second-largest producer of cocoa. Under President Akufo-Addo’s leadership, Ghana has emerged as a booming tech centre – even welcoming Twitter”. [Twitter] is moving to Ghana. Africa’s corporate headquarters of Twitter is going to be there”.
However, Asani Tanoh believes T.D. Jakes' comment is not a true reflection of what's happening in the country.
Speaking on Neat FM's Me Man Nti programme, he said: "he (Bishop T.D. Jakes) goofed big time...if he was in this country we would have met him squarely...we accept that there's money but we're not seeing anything...he failed to tell his people that even though we have gold ghana has less than two percent stake"
