Sam George 'lectures' NPP communicators on English language

Member of Parliament (MP) for Ningo-Prampram constituency, Hon. Samuel Nartey George, has taken politics a notch higher by seeking to educate communicators of the ruling New Patriotic Party, NPP, on the Queen's language, or so it seems.

According to him, an NPP communicator he named as Davis Opoku accused him of insulting the Vice President - Dr. Mahamudu Bawumiah and the Finance Minister - Mr. Ken Ofori-Atta - during a discussion on TV because he described the management of the Ghanaian economy by the duo as useless.

He made this known in a facebook post on Monday, February 6, 2023.

Mr. Sam Nartey George questioned whether the description of former President, John Dramani Mahama by the Vice President and his wife back then as useless and incompetent were meant to sing the praises of the former President.

"So what do NPP communicators take us for?

This morning on the morning show on TV3 Ghana, the government rep, Davis Opoku accused me of insulting the Vice President and Finance Minister because I DESCRIBED their handling of the economy as useless.

"Is their handling of our economy useful?

"When Bawumia and his wife Samira called JM useless and incompetent, were those praises and worship? Have we ever had a time when our currency was junk status? Has there ever been a time where government is 'forcefully' appropriating the savings of pensioners due to its perverted proclivities that have destroyed our economy?"

In a sarcastic manner, the outspoken Member of Parliament sought to take on the NPP communicators in an English class to explain what the meaning of the word, 'useless' is.

"Just to help the NPP communicators running riot, the word USELESS is an adjective. An adjective modifies or describes a noun or pronoun. A noun identifies people, places or things. Hence, the word USELESS would be an adjective modifying Bawumia or Ken Ofori-Atta in the following sentence.

"The management of Ghana's economy by Bawumia and Ken Ofori-Atta has been USELESS.

End of this morning's class," he mocked.
