NAPO personally apologize to Nkroful Chiefs over disrespectful comment against Dr. Kwame Nkrumah
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Traditional leaders of Nkroful home town of Ghana’s first President Dr. Kwame Nkrumah have forgiven New Patriotic Party (NPP) running mate Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh for a comment about the former president in Kumasi.

During the unveiling of  Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh as running mate to Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh popularly known as ‘NAPO’ on Tuesday, July 9, the former Energy Minister and Member of parliament stated that President Akufo-Addo had performed better than Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.

Body language and other choice of words used by the for former energy minister spark widespread public condemnation compelling the Dr. Prempeh to retract his words and apologized to Ghanaians.

The traditional leaders of Nkruful also added their voice to the public condemnation and equally demanded an apology from the Kumasi Apagyafie royal in person before he will be forgiven.

On 9th August 2024, the NPP’s running mate as part of his campaign tour to the Western region particularly in the Nzemaland, made a stop at Nkroful to personally apologise to the traditional leaders and the entire Nzemaland to forgive him for the unfortunate comments he made.

In his apology statement he said “I lived with Nzema people when I was growing up. Nzema people and I are one people. I will never disrespect Nkrumah in any way, anybody who attempts to disrespect Nkrumah will face the consequences of his actions.

“Nkrumah has done so much for the country. I was misconstrued, but I apologised to Ghanaians and I stand here before you to apologise for my comments again, forgive me, we’re all one people,” NAPO said.

In response, the chief of Nkroful, Nana Kwasi Kutua accepted the apology and urged him not to sin any more.

“NAPO’s comments received wide condemnation from Ghanaians because it was uncalled for. We hail the actions of Ghanaians, we thank them. We need to recognise that Nkrumah did a great job for the country.

“We’re a peaceful people, we don’t like violence, and we don’t want a situation where chaos will erupt in Ghana because of the Nzema people. We heard that NAPO apologised to Ghanaians for his comments. But he needed to come to Nzema to personally apologise to the traditional leaders and re-affirm his regrets.

“Today, he has asked for forgiveness from the chiefs, this is what we have all been waiting for, and so we accept his apology.”

The NPP’s running mate is the the Western region for campaign and to also introduce him self to the stakeholders on the region ahead of elections 2024.
