MP for Gomoa Central, Kwame Asare Obeng, popularly known as A Plus, made his second speech in Parliament and Ghanaians seemed unimpressed.

The musician-turned-politician, during a recent parliamentary sitting, was given the platform to contribute to discussions in the House and used the opportunity to talk about the current administration's flagship campaign promises "24-hour economy" and "Nkoko nketenkete".

However, Kwame A Plus seemed to be fumbling with his speech. He promised to school the House on Agric but ended up confusing everyone in the House, including the Speaker who was chairing the meeting at the time of his speech.

"...that, I even realised that 24 hours and akokɔ nketenkete... You can't hear? Please pay attention pay. I'm going to teach you Agric and I will beg you to please listen carefully. It was on that day that the President told us that 55,000 homes were going to benefit from Nkokɔ nketenkete. Mr Speaker, Ghana imports about 300 million dollars of poultry every year," he said.

"Our national demand is about 400 metric tonnes every year. In fact, we produce only about 57,000 tonnes a year. Importation is about 270,000 metric tonnes a year and the President in his wisdom, he's noticed that if 100 districts put together errr... 500 birds for err... 5000 homes, we'll be making about 55,000 homes, raising about 55,000..." he said in the video which has since gone viral," he added.
