Fierce critic of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, Koku Anyidoho has launched a verbal attack on the latter, insisting that there is no leadership under him.
Speaking to Rainbow Radio 87.5Fm, Koku Anyidoho, who is a Deputy General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), said there is no leadership under ‘’useless’’ Akufo-Addo.
He was responding a question on whether it will be prudent for government to take over the organization of the annual lecture and wreath laying ceremony of the late President John Evans Atta Mills who died in office, in 2012. In his response he said, the president who is a legal alien is not in the country and only enjoys luxurious travels.
He said the president is more outside the country than in the country. He wondered why the president has travelled when a petition has been brought to his office by some aggrieved petitioners at the Electoral Commission, calling on him [Nana Addo] to remove Mrs. Charlotte Osei, the EC boss.
He slammed those making claims that the NDC schemed with the EC boss because they plotted with Charlotte Osei to rig the polls because they did not have a collation centre.
‘’At the end of the day who won the elections? Was it not Nana Addo? So what are you talking about? It was the NPP that accused the NDC of scheming to rig the polls, yet Nana Addo won so why are you making claims that we wanted to rig? There is something going wrong at the EC. Let us see what is wrong and correct it instead of politicizing the issue.’’
‘’Nana Akufo-Addo should stop travelling, stop wasting the state resources travelling and stay in this country and work. Where is the president? Was he in the country when the petition was presented to him? When the petition was received, he was in Cote d’Ivoire watching a football match.
He will later go to France and cruise. We don’t want to waste time on such a useless president.’’ When asked to withdraw his statement he refused insisting that, "Ghanaians have regretted voting for Nana Addo because he is useless" and used the analogy that former President Mahama was described as incompetent and the two words are similar and does not mean anything bad.
When the host asked him to withdraw, he said, ‘’I will not withdraw. The president is useless.’’ He later dropped the line after he was asked to withdraw his "useless" comments for the third time.

I blame journalists who continue to call such characters to comment on important issues.
the weed was too much in his system so he could not cope with the interview. that is why he hung up.
koku has a mental breakdown due to NDC's defeat last year. The pain and grief of the loss is so much that he is living in a fantasy denial known to be a form of mental delusional imbalance. Sooner of later, he will come to terms with reality.
This insult is even too small. The bigger one is on the way coming. Politics
YOU SEE? INDIAN HEMP IS NOT GOOD. THE PROOF IS THERE FOR ALL TO SEE. SUCH A THING, ALSO INSULTING THE PRESIDENT. OH GHANA. HMMMMMMMMM. BASTARDS EVERYWHERE. WEE PUFF WEE PUFF WEE PUFF IDIOTIC ALL THE WAY TO ANKAFUL
but am really shock at NANA, cant he arrest this guys....this guys still think they are in charge, please Mr president we are not happy allowing this fo.ools to have ground in this country, please act now, how can you call your president ***barred word***
Koku and his like usually brings all our democracy into disrepute. He is still living in those times when insults by political parties is the rule of the game and I would have wish nobody had responded with another insults. Though he maybe right by saying the travelling is too much which I myself find uncomfortable as a citizen, we cannot or directly insult your sitting President as "***barred word***". The word "***barred word***" is referring to the person or in personam (Nana). The word Incompetent refers to acts or omissions of a person. I do not blame him because Mahama had the decency to free the Montie Three and had dearly paid for it. An opportunity to instill discipline in the way Politicians talk in public, that is why none of me, my blood will ever ever vote for a Mahama in my life in Ghanaian politics. If the Montie three had served their terms Koku would have been cautious. It is a shame to a leader like Mahama, the reason he only had less than 3 years.
please pardon this dog ***barred word***. He is a dead beast.
The media in Ghana should be a little serious. Why are you wasting everybody's time on this Atta Mills' anniversary? Is he the only former President who is deceased? What about that of Nkrumah, Busia, Limann etc? Instead of calling the people in government to discuss issues like food security, employment, economy etc you call people like Koku Anyidoho who but for politics are nobody to insult people. Koku Anyidoho and the like are not the people to be called to talk on radio. Media people set better agenda for discussion in the country. People like Koku Anyidoho has nothing to contribute to the development of this country. Pls spare us the nooooneesense of Koku and the likes.
the guy high, its not his faulty. its a pit not pity
