Why Some Ghanaians want to ‘beat up’ Bridget Otoo over her comment about Akufo-Addo

-

Controversial broadcaster, Bridget Otoo, has been a subject of social media trolls for saying that her tap has not been running for two weeks.

Her comment followed pro-poor measures announced by President Nana Akufo-Addo in his address to nation on Sunday.

To mitigate the effects of the recent lockdown to stop the spread of the coronavirus, President Akufo-Addo said “the Ghana Water Company Limited and the Electricity Company of Ghana have been directed to ensure the stable supply of water and electricity during this period. In addition, there will be no disconnection of supply.

“Furthermore, government will absorb the water bills for all Ghanaians for the next three months, i.e. April, May and June. All water tankers, publicly and privately-owned, are also going to be mobilised to ensure the supply of water to all vulnerable communities.”

Sharing her thoughts on the President’s announcement, Miss Otoo posted this on twitter: “Let’s examine this water bill… my water hasn’t flowed in two weeks. I swear Nana Addo get muff…”

Her comment did not go down well with some social media users who took her to the cleaners.
