Minister designate for Communications, Ursula Owusu Ekuful says she’s turned on a new leaf in relation to her utterances, assuring that she’ll be more measured in her choice of words in her public engagements.
According to her, she’s come to the realization that she needs to pipe down, adding that she’s been a restrained person for more than a year now.
The lawyer cum politician is known to be ascerbic in her public discussion especially on radio and televison, vehemently defending her party (New Patriotic Party) and also launching scathing attacks on her political opponents.
She’s a strong woman who stands by her conviction.
At her vetting Wednesday morning in Parliament House, the Minority Leader, Haruna Iddrisu asked the nominee to give an assurance that she’s a changed person saying “are we assured of an emergence of a new Ursula…a diplomatic Ursula who’ll be guided by the tongue.”
In her response, Hon. Ursula Owusu Ekuful promised to show the public the “born again” person that she is as she goes to occupy public office as a minister.
“I think that Ursula is very much in evidence and has been for a while, at least I have had comments in that direction in the last couple of years. I think that depending on where you find yourself you should be able to adapt to changing circustances. An illustration is that you dont always have to drive in 5th gear. You need to crank up and crank down depending on the circumstances. But I must thank the Kofi Annan International Peace Keeping Training Centre for opening my eyes to some of the dangers we unwittingly lead ourselves to with our actions and utterances, and tells me to step back and tone down a bit…pause a bit more before jumping into the fray. Mr Chairman I think you have to commend me on that. I think you’re seeing the improved Ursula and there will be a lot more of that in evidence, thank you.”

Congratulations Ursula..go make us proud
HELLOO SISTER ABENAA, ADEN WOY3 TRUMP. YOU SOUND EXACTLY LIKE HIM.
Ah Abena darling you look good! Outfit pas nie? Na correct correct give you. I am asilent woman admirer and I pray the Lord makes his face shine on you. Congrats Madam!
What military tactics did Otiko use. In all her responses she was affable but firm! Did she ever frown? No! It's just paining the huge male ego that a woman is not allowing herself to be bullied and was able to give witty answers, making those men look dum*, infantile, childish and st00pid! The days of 'a woman must apologize for her opinion' are long long gone! You men better get used to it! And those women who are kissing men's ***barred word***, like that prune face Anita DeSoso are included! We should apologize to who????? She's here todo a job and she will do it VERY VERY WELL!
A better than Otiko is here. Kennedy Agyapong said he has changed. Peter Amewu has promised to sort things out with Rawlings. Ursula says she has changed. Only Otiko thinks differently. The wise have changed because we can all understand that in the heat of campaign the tendency to go overboard is high. Someone advise Otiko, she is now a minister and a no less a ministry than Women and Children where you use your heart rather than military tactics.
IM HIGHLY IMPRESSED FOR 'REPENTANT' URSULA, MAY THE ALMIGHTY DIRECTS YOU IN YOUR NEW ROLE
Beware of the man sitting right behind you! He is too old to continue in the ministry. He has the subtle attitude to change his coat. Good luck.
Oh my! Seriously I'm still wondering where Mahama was taking this country to! Compare ndc women with npp women and the difference is sooooooooooo crystal clear! Even at the vetting. When Dr Heloo asks a question I want to dig a hole and jump in it! She sound like she's still in primary 1. A whole doctor!
Honestly I listened to you very briefly in my office and the few sentences you made surprised me. I asked a colleague in the office is that Usurla? Am impressed with your tone, please keep it up. In Akuffo's govt there should be no Babies with sharp teeth. Keep it up madam.
