Most Ghanaians took to social media to mock president Nana Akuffo Addo because his speech delivered on the inauguration day January 7, was believed to be a plagiarised one.
Many have defended the president saying he wasn’t wrong after all while some have really bashed him.
A-list actress Yvonne Okoro has also chipped in her concern about the whole plagiarism issue. According to her, president Nana Akufo Addo wasn’t wrong according to copyright laws and that we should move on as a country to discuss better things.
Read Yvonne's tweets below:
"Shd we impeach the president nw becos of his speech,by the way accordin 2 our Copyright laws he's nt wrong..Next News Item pls!Cn we move on"
Accordin 2 our law is nt plagiarism if the author of the line has been dead for 70yrs,thus any1 cn use tht line without crediting the author
"Bush isn't the author of tht line, Woodrow Wilson is the author,didn't hear bush creditin him(Wilson)in his speech.Can we move on now"

VERY INTELLIGENT YOUNG ACTRESS. BRAVO YVONNE!
Ah Yvonne Okoro I always hear people praising you as an intelligent lady but never heeded it until today. You are really intelligent. Amongst all the arguments for and against this brouhaha you have been the only one who has brought up a sound argument. It's true firstly it's not George Buuush's speech and he koraa did not credit the original author. Good girl and many blessings.
these are some of the thing that send the NDC to opposition . instead of them to talk of something important about themselves, they rather insulted Nana and Bawumia which was other form of campaigning for them. so good start from NDC for marketing Nana at the early stage of his presidency.
swt vonne, if they aint ready to move on they can stay and keep talking after all he wasnt voted to give speeches. the economy is wat we will use to access him not speeches. ebi speeches we go chop. antway if u dont understand u can go to court
It will surprise you that those been smart calling it foul in a way plagiarized I university n I believe they even ignored their supervisors. Did we impeach haruna iddrisu when it happened that he plagiarized almost his entire thesis?
Where from this girl too. Please let's read something better
EVEN ATTA MILLS MURDERERS ARE LIVING. AJIMIFO.
Why are people only talking about George ***barred word***'s speech, the President, my President plagiarized George ***barred word***, Iddi Amin, Bill Clinton and Nigeria Buhari's speeches. What he did is criminal according to Ghanaian laws he can be jailed if he is taken to court. We should just call a spade a spade and move on. No equalization but because of the love we have for him it with a heavy heart that i write this message.
Exactly my point. Shall we move on pls. We play too much. Let's get serious people. We've got more important work to do Wai. We've no time for child's play
thank you madam....one ***barred word*** person raises or brings up a ***barred word*** idea in the NDC and they all follow blindly. They have found themselves a job by trying to pull Prez Akuffo Addo down but it will surely bounce back at them. Just as Ex-prez Mahama made some decisions thinking he was getting at Ex-Prez kuffour and now the same situation is staring at him in the face.
