The ruling NDC has reacted to the hooting at President John Mahama by some NPP supporters at Kokompe in Accra, saying the party will not descend to the level of the opposition party.
Hundreds of traders and residents in the NPP stronghold on Tuesday shocked the President by waving the change sign when he stormed the area to campaign.
The bewildered President had no choice than to wave at the charged crowd from the roof of his SUV vehicle as the traders continuously rolled their hands to signal change; a slogan of the opposition New Patriotic Party. A video of the incident has gone viral.
Reacting to the development, the campaign coordinator of the NDC Kofi Adams said the crowd was motivated by the teachings of their flagbearer Nana Akufo-Addo.
“Look, if that is the way we’ll do our politics then Nana Akufo-Addo cannot go to all places in this country to campaign. Because there are NDC supporters everywhere, when we got to Kokompe there were huge NDC supporters following President Mahama but the indiscipline Nana-Akufo Addo has preached to his supporters led them to misbehave towards the president,” Adams said.
He added: “We were just passing through the area, where the incident happened is a known NPP spot as they had hoisted a big flag of Akufo-Addo, so clearly the people were NPP supporters who wanted to embarrass the President. But just as Michelle Obama said. When they go low, we go high, when they do their all-die be-die stuff, we’ll show them that we are matured and we do clean politics.”

Mr. Adam please are you sure you were a qualify teacher..? cos I am surprise at your statement.... did you see Nana Addo anywhere near where the Prez was passing..? have you heard or seen Nana Addo teaching the NPP members to hoot @ any1 when an opposition to the NPP is passing or the Prez of the land is passing..? and please did you say anything against the stone that was targeted at Nana on the rally grounds. please sometimes let see things away from the political point of view. God bless Gh..
Kofi adams, is it sense that u lack or u just cant see with ur eyes cos u could clearly see in the video that the people were just waving the change sign so how does that mean hoot. NPP rather didint descend to NDC'd level cos they could have used scrabs to and metals to hit him just as a stone was thrown to Nana so now tell us " stone thrown and waving a change sign" which is a bad character. Those men were not in NPP tshirts but since they didnt tolerate toaso but change u end up saying they are NPP, some voted for NDC and now want to join the change team so now NPP rather didnt decend to the vi**llage level of nDC like kofi adams
Never hoot at Nana. December will hoot at him
Do we Ghanaians live in a dictatorship? Do people not have the right to express their opinion in a public place? Because somebody calls himself President we can't say we disagree with him? Tweeaaaaaa! Where do these NDC people like Kofi Adams come from? Governments govern BY CONSENT of the people. When the people say, "Go!" then you GO.
well said. yen tia obiaa just join the winning team toaso toaso jm all the way
Stone-throwing and hooting, which one is more barbaric, ***barred word***, hoohoodious, gutter politics, immature, a sign of desperation, cantankerous, etc. etc.? Hein, tell me, Mr. loud mouth Kofi Adams. When you hired hooooligans to throw stones at the next President of Ghana, HE Nana Akuffo Addo, were you siting on your nose or what? The signs are clear on the wall, change is in the air. And so the earlier President John Mahama and his cohorts start packing out of the Jubilee House, the better it would be for them.
