The Bono Regional Chairman of the governing New Patriotic Party [NPP], Kwame Baffoe popularly known as Abronye DC has emphatically said voting against the proposed amendment of Article 55 (3) of the 1992 Constitution which will make local government elections partisan qualifies one to be an ‘animal’.
His comment comes after the opposition National Democratic Congress [NDC] urged its supporters to vote 'No' in the December referendum.
The referendum has become necessary because Article 55 is an entrenched provision of the Constitution and therefore can only be amended through a referendum.
Voting for the proposed amendment has been scheduled for December 17, but the NDC is against it.
At a press conference Tuesday, NDC’s Chairman, Samuel Ofosu Ampofo said the local government system should remain non-partisan and that individuals should contest the District Assembly and Unit Committee elections on their own merit.
“We, therefore, decided to campaign for a 'NO' vote at the referendum and to urge all Ghanaians to vote 'NO' at the referendum,” he declared
Speaking on NEAT FM’s morning show 'Ghana Montie' Friday, November 15, 2019, Abronye DC who was unhappy with the opposition’s stance linked the ‘YES' and 'NO’ referendum voting to human and animals.
“In this referendum election the ‘Yes’ stands for human and ‘No’ stands for goat. So it’s up to Ghanaians to decide,” he told host Mac Jerry Osei Agyeman.

The goat looks like Akufo-Addo
***barred word***
I choose to vote NO not because I belong to the NDC. i have come to appreciate the nature of the Ghanaian politician, that is why. study the matter crefully and you'll come to appreciate that constitutional amendments have to be made first. What then is this goat, ***barred word***, twerpy, idiotic, retarded ***barred word*** talking about?
oh God it's true when men think they are too wise and so intelligent the expose their foolishness. Good morning
Only mad men like Abronye DC and his party of ***barred word*** will vote yes I don't think we the right thinking Ghanaian will vote for this ***barred word***
Hahahaaaa! This this guy look at his face in mirror before making this comment. Some people can be bold ooo! You koraa the goatee is more handsome than you, but you have the audacity to make such comment. Indeed, nana addo has brought some people into Ghana politics. A face with the weed smoking mouth calling people goatee.
I think all of us should be mindful of our language in our daily national discourses. Decency and refined words and language ,seasoned with salt,should be the Ghanaian hallmark both in public and private life . We should at all times strive to attack issues and opinions,and not personalities. Thanks
This Abronye or whatever he calls himself is a ***barred word*** man of the highest order. Do not take him seriously.
i will vote Yes because anything that NDC disagree means it will not benefit the party. if it was just Yes to enable the political parties to misuse the nation's scarce resources, i know NDC would have supported it. the simply reason is that, they would have gotten a good opportunity to steal our money.
Abronye just take a good look at yourself in a mirror and you will know that, you look exactly like the goat posted!! You think the whole worlds wisdom is deposited in your head.....Even look at how your are using strong words against people voting NO all because of politics at the national level who are perceived to be well educated! Have you asked yourself what will happen when the local levels when PIGS and DOGS like you vote YES? Didn't want to vote, but the pronouncement is a source of worry hence will vote NO!! Of what benefit has party politics or democracy brought to the Ghanaian besides the corruption and insults to the very people who vote for you..... Avuu kokloo........egborvii (Small goat).
