Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, popularly known as NAPO, has ignited a fierce national debate following his recent unveiling as the running mate to Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia for Ghana’s 2024 elections.
The controversy stems from NAPO’s bold comparison of President Nana Akufo-Addo’s achievements to those of Ghana’s revered first president, Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.
This audacious statement has sparked criticism across social media platforms, with many Ghanaians vehemently defending Nkrumah’s enduring legacy and contributions to the nation’s development.
Critics have lambasted the New Patriotic Party (NPP) for their choice of NAPO as a running mate, citing his perceived arrogance and apparent disrespect towards a figure widely regarded as the father of Ghanaian independence.
The backlash has been particularly intense given Nkrumah’s towering status in Ghanaian history and his significant contributions to the country’s infrastructure and early development.
This controversy has reignited discussions about Ghana’s political history, the evaluation of presidential legacies, and the importance of respecting national heroes.
