Anita De Sosoo, former National Women’s Organiser for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has on behalf of Otiko Afisa Djaba, Minister-designate of Gender, Children and Social Protection, apologised to all Ghanaians and former president John Dramani Mahama over some comments she made about him during the electioneering period.
Her decision to apologise on Ms Djaba’s behalf follows the NPP National Women Organiser’s failure to apologise to the former president during her vetting by the Appointments Committee of parliament on Monday January 30.
Ms Djaba said: “I don’t owe him (Mr Mahama) or you (Alhassan Suhuyini) any apology…,” in response to the Tamale North MP’s question during her vetting on Monday, 30 January, about whether she would apologise to the ex-president on whom she used those words during the electioneering period ahead of the 7 December 2016 elections.
“My comment about he being an embarrassment was in relation to SADA. It was in relation to SADA that I said he had embarrassed Northerners and the Northern chiefs themselves had come to say same,” Ms Djaba justified, explaining: “When I talked about his wickedness, the people of Ghana were asking for reductions, they were asking for ‘dumsor’ to be solved, people were losing jobs and so forth … what I said was within the context of that period.” But speaking in an interview with Chief Jerry Forson, host of Ghana Yensom, on Accra100.5FM on Tuesday January 31, Ms De Sosoo said: “If you are wrong and several people are calling on you to apologise, out of respect you should do that, but I was very sad with the posture of Otiko Djaba during her vetting.”
“Those comments she made about former president Mahama, that he was an embarrassment to Ghanaians and so on, were below the belt, which she should have apologised for. “Nonetheless, I am standing on my sister’s behalf to apologise to all Ghanaians. If you want to be a leader, you don’t lord over anybody; you need to be submissive to all persons.”

Look at her 'onaapo wrinkles' and you can understand. With JDM gone, who will patronize 'mama'.Perhaps with this 'apology' nokofioo wil be dished to her as ESB
Anita who has rented you to apologise on his behalf, Jokers! Has Anita Desooso apologized to Nana Addo for all that they have said about him. Nana Addo has suffered in the hands of NDC more than any other politician in Ghana. Insults to Nana Addo be what! That makes me even love him. He is really a strong and a matured leader indeed.
Otiko was right not to apologise after all Mahama was wicked to most ghanaians------FACT Mahama was an embarrassment to most northerners------FACT Even the citizen vigilante Martin Amidu noticed and said that. Have you forgotten all the insults u and ur folks hurled at Nana Addo? Have u forgotten the insults Mahama hurled at Nana? Didn't he say Nana is short,violent and called him opana? Have u and ur folks apologised? Finally why do the ndc want to use the vetting to score cheap political points. Is that the purpose of vetting? Bravo Otiko , u stood firm for mother ghana and womanhood. Well done
you better apologise to your soul for destroying your flesh with bleaching, Otiko is a woman of substance, she stands for her words, better go and apologise to your foot soldiers for chopping their monies.
That woman should stop wasting our ears.What did you say about Nana Addo? In anyway have you been asked to apologize on behalf of Madam Otiko?
FRED IF SHE IS NOT A GHANAIAN, LOCATE HER, F00L. WHEN THAT THING CALL DESOSO RUN OVER PEOPLE AT AKWATIA, WHAT DID SHE DO? APOLOGIZE FOR A WOMAN WHO KNOWS HER RIGHT? ARE YOU NOT ASHAME OF YOUR SELF.
May the Lord have mercy on us. See who is apologizing on behalf of Otiko, does Anita even have the moral right to do this? What unsavory and derogatory comments haven't come from Anita to other statesmen? Please please please give us a break!
Anita could not apologize for running her vehicle over some innocent Ghanaians not long ago but she wants to apologize on behalf of someone for expressing her passionate opinion on a matter dear to her.
Look at this thing apologizing on behalf of who. Pathetic woman. She made my day
These NDC ***barred word*** are also too dumb. How do you apologize on someone's behalf when that individual has just recently, refused the opportunity to do so. Can you eat for someone who refuses to eat? Nit-wits
