"Where has your love for him taken you? To the moon?"
This was Manasseh Azure Awuni's response to one Abdul Wahaab Yakubu, a Facebook user, after writing an 'unwarranted' comment under his post.
How it started
Just after Chelsea had picked a two-nill win over Real Madrid in a UEFA Champions League match Wednesday night, the award-winning investigative journalist took to his Facebook page to take a swipe at President Akufo-Addo over how Ghana is being ruled under his watch.
He wrote, "Ghana is like Chelsea in the hands of Lampard. If we get a Tuchel, we'll do well. #fixthecountrynow". His remarks literally mean Ghana is underperforming with Akufo-Addo as its leader and that the country will do well when it finds a new President.
In reaction, one of his followers, Abdul Wahab fired that he [Manasseh] will not succeed in any way with his intense dislike towards the President.
"Your hatred for Nana Addo wouldn't take u anywhere," he rebutted.
But, Manasseh Azure fired back and questioned whether or not Wahab has achieved something good for loving Nana Akufo-Addo.
"Where has your love for him taken you? To the moon?," he fired back.
This comes at a time some Ghanaian social media users have launched a campaign to get the Akufo-Addo-led government to act swiftly to get the economy back on track.
The #fixthecountry campaign has attracted mainly the youth on both Twitter and Facebook.
