President John Mahama is Feeling the HEAT | He Tweets to Ghanaian Celebrities Saying ‘Let’s End the Polemics’

Published by
President-John Mahama

The official President John Dramani Mahama’s twitter page has tweeted, and the message is pretty clear—the smoke coming out of the kitchen is worrying.

The social media Dumsor campaign has intensified, though, it has somewhat become an opportunity to insult and be mischievous for some people.

Being offensive or unleashing attacks in every campaign is not forbidden but such actions mostly taint the campaign so in a tweet, the president wrote; “The division in our politics is bad enough. Let it not spread to our creative industry. Let’s cease the polemics. — JM”

In effect, the president is not asking for the activism in the Creative Arts Industry to stop, he is only saying, the manner and shape in which this activism is taking place must be re-considered.

For a few days now, Ghanaians are making good use of social media, sending all manner of messages and discussing the unbearable power crisis they find themselves in—made worse by the government’s inability to honour his promise of finding a fix.

This has brought out the animals in some people, sometimes led by our own celebrities and it seems it’s the cannibalistic attacks that our president is not comfortable with. Which means, he well understands the fight being put up on social media and has nothing against it.

The question is; is he going to do anything about the situation which is giving breathing space the polemics? I mean, fix Dumsor within the shortest possible time?
