Kusi – Presidency aside he grow pass them issue no dey
Paa – Let’s put his nonsense aside, you don’t sit to greet someone who’s older or in a higher authority than you! It’s disrespect! He should have ignored it tho but man no ankasa he has decided to be mafia towards everybody!!
Big Stormzy – Wait….. but can nana addo do this to Otumfuor? Or he has favorites?
Koby Biney – Nobody Dey vex me pass Ein bodyguard
protector – I have seen many videos of @JDMahama greeting chiefs and traditional leaders at different occasions and NOT once, have I seen him or his staff ask them (chiefs/ traditional leaders) to standup before him. Clear difference in attitude and upbringing. The arrogance of power indeed.
King Ford – They deserve it for this is just the Genesis. When we told you guys to vote wisely yall thought we dey play.
Prince – When his presidency comes to an end … I will be waiting to see his reactions if he attends a funeral like this …
Big Steez – He pulls off such gimmicks only in the Volta-Oti area. He will never try this anywhere else. Such a waste of a man.
Chief empire – I don’t see anything wrong here… 1. Nana Addo might be older than the chief 2. Nana Addo is the president of the Nation. We were taught as kids to stand and greet elders… I don’t think u will sit down and greet ur uncle or aunty who is older than u wen they come to visit..
Anokye – Yall saying he can’t do this to otumfuo….lol…Otumfuo is a king not a chief…knw this and knw peace. what he did is wrng regardless
Mr – They look like sub chiefs. It’s understandable
