Ghanaian musician and real estate mogul Criss Waddle has taken to social media to recall a controversial moment from Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s government following the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) resounding defeat in the 2024 elections.
In a post on social media, Criss Waddle reflected on how Ghanaians had urged the government to address critical issues affecting the country during Akufo-Addo's tenure.
He pointed out the response many found insensitive, where citizens were told to focus on fixing themselves instead of relying on the government.
In his post, he wrote:
"People begged you to fix the country you told them to “fix themselves”🤣🤣🤣 Herh u be champion,we will never forget you da until we die short man Devil."
His remarks came after the NPP came to terms with its loss in the just-ended elections.
