Renowned Ghanaian playwright and author, Uncle Ebo Whyte, has stated that his recent stage play, titled “Order for Four,” is intended to expose ‘the game of politics’ to politicians.
Speaking exclusively to Ghanaweb at the premier of the show at National Theater, Uncle Ebo Whyte said, “The idea is to wake up to understand that politics is a game to the politicians, for you and I we take it as life and death but for the people we are backing, supporting and criticizing, it is a game.”

He further emphasised the need for Ghanaians to first think about the country and its well-being before indulging in political debates.
He added, “If we can all understand that, then let’s keep the nation first in all things and then play the politics game as second.”
Ebo Whyte added that as much as he wants to entertain his audience, he also wants them to understand that they can indulge in political debates without getting their emotions involved.
“I wish people will have fun, that they will go home happy but I also wish the next time they put on the television or radio and hear a debate coming on, they can listen without getting angry, without getting their emotions involved with it. Just listen to it and realise those speaking it is a game” he said
