Highlife musician, Kwabena Kwabena has expressed disappointment in
members of the ruling party who are casting insinuations and virtually
insulting persons complaining about the energy crisis.
According to him, persons chargedwith the management of the country
should have been apologizing on a daily basis for failing to solve the
dumsor crisis instead of taking it upon themselves to 'insult' the
citizenry for complaining.
"I think they [administrators of thiscountry] should be apologizing
everyday to the people…," he said.
Insults have been rained on celebrities who have taken to social media
to complain about theeffects of the intense power rationing in the
country.
A former aide of the Chief of Staff,Alhaji Halidu Haruna described
such persons including celebrities above thirty years and unmarried as
'irresponsible and prostitutes'. He has since apologized.
But the Adult Music singer reactingon Accra-based Oman FM said
suchcomments "shock" him as he believes it would have been prudent for
government to be apologizing for their failure to tackle the energy
problem, now in its fourth year, instead of raining insults on those
who demand answers.
He revealed that he spends approximately Ghc100.00 on fuel daily as a
result of the persistent energy crisis.
This daily expenditure and the fivepercent tax deducted from his
income after every show, he said, adds to the reasons why he deserves
the right to comments about politics in the country.
Kwabena Kwabena urged public office holders to see their mandate as
service to humankind instead of lording it over the citizenry.
