Ghanaian actor and NPP supporter Prince David Osei has sparked outrage online for calling former President John Dramani Mahama a “drunkard” on social media . This comment came after Mahama was declared the winner of the 2024 Presidential elections. Many Ghanaians have condemned Osei’s remark as highly disrespectful and unbecoming of a public figure.
Osei’s tweet, which has gone viral, reads: “Even drunkard you voted for kwasia boy!! Learn sense wai Gyimi” . Social media users have expressed their disapproval, labelling the actor’s comment as “insensitive” and “unpatriotic”. Critics argue that such statements fuel unnecessary animosity in an already polarised political environment.
Some Twitter users have responded to Osei’s comment, with one saying: “We can disagree politically, but referring to a President as a drunkard is completely out of line. Public figures should do better” . Another user added: “This is below the belt. Prince David Osei should be held accountable for his words. Such comments don’t foster unity” .
Osei is yet to respond to the criticisms.
