According to reports, celebrations for the much-anticipated festival were going on well until Dr Bawumia attempted to recount what the people did not want to hear.
He began his speech by acknowledging the economic hardships the people were going through and even empathised with them. However, things took a downturn when Bawumia began to list the achievements of the incumbent government, which did not order well with the people.
Per reports by Fred Duhoe, the people resisted security in order to get closer and drive away the vice president. This, in turn, made the vice president uneasy as he tried to finish his speech quickly.
Below are videos of the people of Anlo hooting at the vice president during the delivery of his speech.
Below are some reactions from Ghanaians on the booing incident in Anlo at the Hogbetsotso Festival
KA Kennedy:
When he started with the economy, then I said this man is surely going to get booed.
Felix Mawulorm Apaloo:
Meek and peaceful but we have a limit. What was his Government posture when the sea rendered my people homeless at Keta? What has his Government done in Anlo land which he was recounting? He should have just done formalities and leave the politics behind.
Ransford Kasu:
lol Good he enjoyed the cheers too but for the booes he brought it upon himself because he refused to employ wisdom, tact and diplomacy to know when, where and what or how to talk.He requires tutorials in Audience psychology
Frank Addo:
He is just insensitive and clueless. Instead of you instilling hope in us you doing politics and you want to become a President. Interesting times ahead...
Ben Dotsei Malor:
It's sad, ill-judged, and unfortunate that this Veep could be so tone-deaf, insensitive, and uncaring to turn a truly beautiful and historic occasion into a platform for his nation-wrecking, comedic, wicked, and destructive brand of politicking. What was he thinking? What did he expect?
