Paul Yandoh threatens to drag President Mahama to Ghana Jollof to deal with him over 'insult'

Paul Yandoh, a former New Patriotic Party (NPP) Ashanti Regional Communications Officer, has threatened to report President John Dramani Mahama to social media critic Barbara Asantewaa Kodua, popularly known as Ghana Jollof. According to Yandoh, he is seeking justice after the President allegedly referred to him as ignorant. Speaking in an interview on Owiq TV, excerpts of which have been shared on social media, Yandoh said he was looking for institutions responsible for handling politics of insults to intervene in the matter involving him and President Mahama. He added that, if such institutions failed to address the issue, he would have no option but to take his case to the social media critic, Ghana Jollof. “Right now, I am looking for the institutions responsible for politics of insults to report my case to them for them to handle it because, being in this region, the Regional Minister told the President to insult me. “I am pained. If not, I will report him to Ghana Jollof,” he said. It may be recalled that President Mahama recently took a swipe at Paul Yandoh over comments he made about the Accra-Kumasi Expressway. 'Ignorant' - President Mahama jabs Paul Yandoh over 'soldiers leaving war to construct road' comment Yandoh, during a radio discussion, criticised the use of the military to clear the path for the expressway. “Today, Ghana’s soldiers have stopped fighting wars. “They no longer go on missions in Lebanon and other places. Now, Ghana’s soldiers are constructing roads,” he said. Reacting to the comments at a ceremony to mark the handing over of the right-of-way for the expressway, President Mahama, without mentioning Yandoh’s name, took a swipe at the NPP communicator. The President asserted that only an ignorant person would claim that soldiers cannot be used to construct roads. “I heard one of the radio commentators say…soldiers are now constructing roads. I mean, he is ignorant. For those of us who were old enough in the PNDC era, when Rawlings decided to open up the Afram Plains, no civilian contractor could construct the Donkorkrom Road. “It was the Ghana Armed Forces that were asked to go and open up the road to Donkorkrom and they accomplished the task,” he said. @despark8590 NPP communicator, Paul Yandoh, in a blend of humor and comedy says he would report president Mahama for saying he's ignorant for saying road construction is not the job of the military. Paul Yandoh seems to be the only NPP communicator that is loved by both NDC and NPP 😂😂. #creatorsearchinsights #ghana #development #leadership #fypage ♬ original sound - DeSpark AM Inside Ghana’s Abandoned Engineering Powerhouse: What Went Wrong?
