VIDEO: “Your Evil Deeds Have Now Kept You In The Wheelchair” – NDC’s Dela Edem Insults Ex President Kufuor

The Opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has found itself at the center of controversy once again, this time due to derogatory comments made by Dela Edem, a member of John Mahama’s national campaign team, against former President John Agyekum Kufuor.

Speaking on TV XYZ, an NDC affiliate station, Edem stated categorical that Ex President John Agyekum Kufuor’s current wheelchair confinement is a direct result of his “evil deeds” during his administration.

“We all saw your bad governance, so don’t think we have forgotten. Your evil deeds have now kept you in the Wheelchair.”

This outburst was in response to former President Kufuor’s endorsement of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), after describing him as the best person to lead Ghana against the NDC flagbearer, John Mahama
However, unhappy, Dela Edem speaking on the show said Kufuor’s administration was “bad” and that he had amassed wealth by “hoarding Ghanaians’ money”, after changing the Ghana’s currency.

The NDC member’s remarks were further exacerbated by the show’s host, Mugabe Maase, who joined in mocking the former president after attempting to stop him.

Kufuor’s Legacy

It’s worth noting that former President Kufuor, also known as the “Gentle Giant,” has had a distinguished career in Ghanaian politics.

He served as president from 2001 to 2009 and was Chairperson of the African Union from 2007 to 2008.

During his presidency, John Kufuor implemented various policies aimed at stabilizing Ghana’s economy and promoting socioeconomic development.

 

 

The NDC’s History of Attacks

This isn’t the first time the NDC has targeted Kufuor.

The party has a history of criticizing the former president despite his contributions to Ghana’s development.

In contrast, former President John Dramani Mahama led an NDC delegation to mourn with Kufuor and his family following the passing of former First Lady Theresa Kufuor.

 

Public Outcry

The public and members of the NPP have strongly condemned Edem’s remarks, calling for respect and decorum towards the elder statesman.
