Kwame Asare Obeng, popularly known as A Plus, has sparked intense debate with his candid critique of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and the New Patriotic Party (NPP). In a recent interview on GHOne TV, the independent MP-elect for Gomoa Central expressed his delight over the NPP's defeat in the 2024 general elections, attributing the outcome to Akufo-Addo's leadership.
A Plus contended that the president's actions have severely damaged the party's reputation, leading to its downfall. "The general outcome of the election is a great one. Akufo-Addo has been humiliated, and I am so excited about it," he remarked. The musician-turned-politician also lambasted the president's policies and governance, highlighting the administration's inability to address the needs of Ghanaians.
He cited issues such as corruption and the mismanagement of education, particularly the Free Senior High School (SHS) policy. "All they know is Free SHS, but what else? His government stole everything from us and didn't listen to the people," he argued. A Plus also celebrated his personal victory, having defeated the incumbent NPP MP, Nana Eyiah Quansah, in Gomoa Central.
He secured 14,277 votes compared to Quansah's 11,637. On his future political alignment, A Plus stated that he is still considering his options and is in talks with both the NPP and the National Democratic Congress (NDC). However, he emphasized that his main priority remains the development of Gomoa Central.
"I will make a decision based on which party can best serve the interests of my constituents," he said. A Plus's comments have ignited widespread debate, with many Ghanaians taking to social media to share their thoughts on the matter. While some have praised A Plus for his candor, others have criticized him for his harsh words.
The NPP's defeat in the 2024 general elections has sent shockwaves throughout the country, with many analysts attributing the outcome to Akufo-Addo's leadership. As the country continues to grapple with the implications of the election results, one thing is clear: A Plus's comments have added fuel to the fire, sparking a national conversation about the future of Ghanaian politics.
