A member of the National Democratic Congress’ (NDC) communication team, Alhaji Haruna Halidu has described as his worse comment ever, the recent facebook post which he described female celebrities who are above thirty years but no married as prostitutes.
The former presidential staffer speaking on Accra-based Starr FM further expressed remorse over the comment which has generated a lot of backlack from members of the public.
Halidu Haruna in a facebook post described actresses Yvonne Nelson and Lydia Forson as irresponsible following the criticism of the President by the two female celebrities.
He has however since apologized.
“I want to honestly apologise to all Ghanaian women".
“I was emotional in my reaction because I was taken aback by the manner in which she described the President but I was wrong and I sincerely apologise.
“I personally have three daughters so I know I shouldn't have used such words on a woman because I wouldn't expect such words to be used on my daughters,” he said.
In a May Day open letter, Ms Forson demanded an end to the power crisis, otherwise called “dumsor”, saying: “Our president is like that kid in school who is always last, always gives the wrong answers and never seems to grasp what is being taught."
“But for some reason you keep rooting for him, you keep hoping he will come out and shock everyone, come out and put people to shame, come out and make people take back every little mean thing they said about him".
“You keep waiting and waiting until you all graduate and he’s still stuck in the same class because he didn’t pass…” excerpts of the letter noted.
