Honestly, this statue stayed way longer than I expected. Whoever is worried can build a statue to Akuffo Addo's honor in front of their house and no one would pull it down - not the neglected Western Region. The despicable former regional minister would be next - maybe not his statute but he himself. Otchere Darko (or whatever his name is) is not from the Western Region so he could just disrespect the people of the region by building the statue of a man who was 100% disliked by the people.

The atack was caused by some Zongo youth and we must be careful. They were behind most of the attacks across the country and the aim is they use it as a pretext to vent their religious anger and loot. You know that Muslims abore statues. We need to be careful because if we make them feel they are. untouchable, they will oneday turn against everybody and this is where terrorism starts.

First thing the ppl gave you a warning with some small destruction..this shoukd have alerted akuffubaddonto and remove his statute and send it to kyebi. He ignored the warning. Now his beautiful head has been desecrated and sitting on the ground. Next, it will be carried to the nearest public toilet and dropped there as part of the architecture. This is what npp and bawumia toilet promised Ghanaians, right? Muahahaaaaaaa. Send this head to the nearest public toilet and leave it there

True. Nana Addo is lucky to have been booted out of power through the ballot box, if even Nkrumah was chased out with guns, for me Nana Addo should have been obliterated by armor cars and warplanes.

You reap what you sow. That is what they did to Nkrumah's statue when they overthrew him in their 1966 coup. No tears for the demolition of the statue.

There's no point destroying the statue. Similarly, Kwame Nkrumah's statue was destroyed in 1966. After so many years we have spent state funds to erect several monuments in his honour. His body that was buried under a makeshift canopy at Nkroful has been relocated to it's present location using state resources.
