In recent years, the political landscape in Ghana has been marred by controversies and personal attacks. One such incident involves the popular abroad- based podcaster Kelvin Taylor, who has been known for his sharp criticisms and insults towards various dignitaries in the country, including Otumfour and supporters of the NPP.
However, a recent twist in the tale has revealed that the NDC’ s flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama, has distanced himself from Taylor’ s actions and apologized to Otumfour for any disrespect caused.
Kelvin Taylor, through his online platform, has gained a significant following for his outspoken views on Ghanaian politics.
However, his abrasive style and tendency to insult and belittle individuals, especially those affiliated with the NPP, have drawn criticism from various quarters. One of the most notable instances of Taylor’ s disrespect was directed towards Otumfour Nana Osei Tutu II, the revered Ashanti King, causing outrage among the public.
In a surprising turn of events, John Dramani Mahama, the flagbearer of the NDC, has publicly disassociated himself from Kelvin Taylor’ s actions. Mahama, in a statement, claimed that he does not know who Kelvin Taylor is and has never authorized him to insult anyone in Ghana.
The apology to Otumfour signifies a strategic move by Mahama to distance himself from Taylor’ s controversial statements and maintain a semblance of dignity and respect in his political campaign.
