Ghanaian actress Lydia Forson has mocked the sitting president of Ghana, Nana AKufo-Addo, claiming he has publicly embarrassed himself at the Women Deliver 2019 Conference.
According to Lydia, the President is strong on not taking advice from people around, citizens inclusive. And this has lead him to a disgraceful moment at the conference that was held in Vancouver.
“We are not seeing enough dynamism and activism on the part of those who are seeking. I am talking about dynamism where it matters…electing people to Parliament, controlling political parties because they are the instruments by which our societies make decisions.
“We are talking about decisions, not wishes and hopes, we are talking about decisions that are going to make the difference,” President Akufo-Addo said.
His comments appear not to have gone down well with gender activists like Lydia Forson who took to social media to jab the President in a thread of tweets.
“This is our President talking at the Women Deliver 2019 Conference in Vancouver. This pictures sums up how a majority of the women and panel reacted to his views on gender activism. When we talk you don’t listen, then you’ll go out there and get laughed at eh,VERY PUBLICLY! ????”
Like she said a lot of men and even some women share these sentiments.
“And they want to believe they’re helping, but don’t get that they can’t without tackling the fundamental issues first.Sadly our president had to be educated on this very publicly”
