Simon Osei-Mensah Simon Osei-Mensah

Public Interest Advocate, Mr. Frank Aboagye has called for the head of the Ashanti Region Minister, Simon Osei Mensah after the appointee used unprintable words to describe former President John Dramani Mahama at a party function, describing his comments as uncultured.

“President Akufo-Addo should remove him from office immediately if he fails to render an apology to John Mahama and NDC as a party”, Mr. Frank Aboagye Danyansah appealed to the President in an interview granted MyNewsGh.com.

The Minister while speaking to some NPP youth at a conference over the weekend described former President John Mahama as “dirty pig” that must not be given any chance at the presidency again, MyNewsGh.com reports.

“We can’t have an already dirty pig that keeps soiling itself in the mud to lead us again and that is former President Mahama; all the water in the sea in Ghana cannot wash him clean no matter how many times he would be washed” the former Bosomtwe lawmaker told a charged crowd.

Speaking to an audio of the Minister which has gone viral, Mr. Frank Aboagye Danyansah called for Civil Society Organizations and the Christians Council to also join in condemning the conduct of Hon. Simon Osei Mensah.

“This is a free advise am giving to the Minister, let him stop insulting the people because he is representing President Akufo-Addo in the Ashanti Region”
