A market preacher delighted traders with a song highlighting popular but controversial comments by President Akufo-Addo and his predecessor John Mahama.
In a short clip which is doing the rounds on the internet, she passionately reiterated former president John Mahama’s comments about having a ”dead goat syndrome”.
The song first creatively captured President Nana Akufo-Addo’s recent address to the nation about the depreciating cedi, the state of the economy, and measures taken to salvage the situation.
President Akufo-Addo’s comments ”Fellow Ghanaians, as the French would say, l’argent n’aime pas le bruit, to wit, money does not like noise, sika mmpɛ dede.
Where there is chaos, where there is noise, where there is unrest, you will not find the money. If you talk down your money, it will go down …,” he said.
The video in which the woman delighted traders as they danced to her song gained interesting reactions from netizens as many expressed excitement.
