President Akufo-Addo Booed On Stage At The 2022 Global Citizen Festival In Accra [video]

The president of the republic of Ghana, His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, was heckled at a global entertainment event,  2022 Global Citizen Festival stage at the Black Star Square in Accra.

 

 

H.E. Nana Addo finished his keynote address amidst jeering from the crowd. He spoke about the government of Ghana’s involvement in eradicating poverty and upholding national unity.

 

Started off his speech with, “Ladies and gentlemen, I extend a hearty Akwaaba, our word of welcome, from a very hospitable people. To all of you, who have come from afar and wide, to our vibrant city of Accra, Ghana’s capital, to join us on this great occasion.” His Excellency addressed the impact of climate change and the Russian-Ukraine war on the economy of Ghana and the world.

 

 

President Nana Addo challenged the youth to be creative and fearless in finding solutions to world problems.

 

Many have called the crowd’s reaction brazen as no stateman has received this kind of reaction.

The 2022 Global Citizen Festival has received massive reviews from patrons, who were physically present and those who joined online from their homes.

The General mass of our people are quite simply dissatisfied with the ineptitude, profligacy, incompetence & level of state capture witnessed under Nana Addo.

Like Nkrumah said Ghanaians may be slow to anger but it pays no one to tamper with the Ghanaian freedom & dignity https://t.co/q355KHvq3w

The guys who went there to booed Nana Addo have betrayed all of us. Next time if there’s patriotic advocacy like this they should let all of us know, because some of us will come with our speakers to do the booing.
