Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Atta-Mills Institute, Koku Anyidoho, has adviced all those who are fomenting tension in the country to make President Akufo-Addo look bad before the general public in the wake of the COVID-19 to desist from such behaviour.
To him, it is not helpful as all hands are needed on deck to fight the novel coronavirus just as the President last week took the initiative to invite all political parties to the Jubilee House to address the pandemic as a nation.
Speaking on Okay FM’s 'Ade Akye Abia' Morning Show, Koku Anyidoho praised former President Rawlings for the mandatory testing to set an example to encourage people to go for it in a bid to fight the pandemic. He also commended Ex-President John Kufuor's effort in the fight against the pandemic.
"Even the former Presidents have come alive in this moment of crisis that is facing the nation. Retired health personnel I hear met the President at the School of Public Health at the University of Ghana and they have committed themselves to support the current frontline medical personnel, this is a national crisis," he mentioned.
He again mentioned the need for the President to rely on science, data, research and statistics as the absence of these means will make the country grope in the dark.
“ . . I have listened to the medical experts and they are giving us some good assurance, but the assurance they are giving us is based on research and laboratory analysis and that is the point the President was making," he said.
The Former NDC Deputy General Secretary was of the view that it is not the matter of praising President Akufo-Addo for the decisions he has taken to curtail the pandemic but rather an attempt not to force the President to panic in a moment of crisis.
“It is not as if we are praising the President for the decision he has taken for us, but it is also important that we collectively do not force the President to panic. Let us not force our President to panic,” he adviced.
He said this is the time the President needs our support the most devoid of politics.
He reitirated that those who have not worked with a sitting President before can afford to be aloof on the touchlines and do their propaganda as usual.
"Let them continue to wallow in their ignorance,” he chastised.

KOKU ANYIDAHO HAS BECOME A GOOD AMBASSADOR OF COVID-19 AND A STRONG DEFENDER OF AKKUFO ADDO POLICIES. FRIENDS TODAY ENEMIES TOMORROW AND ENEMIES YESTERDAY FRIENDS TODAY. IN APPRECIATION TO HIS EFFORT AS PAUL OF TARSUS IN OUR GENERATION HE MUST BE REWARDED WITH NPP CARD AND MADE A SPECIAL AID TO GOVERNMENT EMERGENCY POLICIES.
Sometimes stupidityyyyy can override common sense due to politics. Politiking issues will never fight this pandemic, but a common sense approach. An idiiooot is and will always be an idiooot not matter his/her educational background. This is very common with NPP and NDC.
Has this fat dumb head got brains at all, I doubt it
Teddy is sick and needs psychologicsl help.Listen we Ghanaians will never give our country to your mahama even if he cut his head and put it on a silver platter. You are as dumb as your mahama. Akufo Addo speaks and the world listen, your so called wise mahama was sent to the gallery when he was invited to the Scotland parliament and this kind of man carry weight in the ndc world he is their all, he is their mentor, their saviour and their leader but bdc world is not Ghana's world so your mahama and thst ndc will ndver come to power today or tomorrow ! We have a leader who is the president of Ghana Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo Addo and NO other he is the man of the moment, he is our mentor,he is civil, cultured and well brought up he is never a hypocrite and will serve his people with compassion who cares for ndc who have no message, no vision, no clue, no compassion, no policy and unpatriotic to Ghana who cares about them? I'm surprised they wouldn't leave Ghanaians alone with their primitive politics ! Today with ndc and their coronavirus will pass away! We have a lot to talk about ndc will never see the light if the day no matter what ....# 4more4NANA#4MORETODOMORE! GOD BLESS THE PRESIDENT OF GHANA NANA ADDO DANKWAH AKUFO ADDO# GOD BLESS GHANA# WASH YOUR HANDS#PUT ON FACE MASK# STAY SAFE ! HAPPY GOOD FRIDAY TO ALL PATRIOTUC GHANAIANS! GOD BLESS YOU!
stop the baseless talk, your mahama did 8 years without nurses and teachers employment, trainees allowances were cut off, teachers were paid only 3 months out of three years work, dumso was four years what did he do to support businesses and the poor , rather he increased their tariffs, where are the supposed ebola emergency centres he was to build across the country with the 60 million euros grants, only one sugar factory to build even failed, Koku has seen the difference likewise many ndc members whose children are enjoying free SHS, Nabco, nurses and teachers employments which your mahama couldn't do because of IMF, in fact he stoleee 10 times more than the 1 billion loan which denied public sector workers employment and the list goes on and on. Nana's children dey chop sardines in school, parents want their wards back to school because they see the burden Nana has lifted off their heads since they came home because of the virus. teddy am sorry your mahama is a mistake to ndc, the wrong candidate, wait till his official 1 case begins, corruption here and there, wait till your ndc cases in court are through then you will be praising Koku for seeing the light faster than you, cheers.
Koku, you will agree with me nobody is forcing Nana Addo to do anything inimical to this nation as you are claiming. Surprisingly, Nana Addo you are showing solidarity with has almost implemented all the advise you claimed were pressures being brought to bear on Nana Addo. You see, Mahama has the wisdom and what it takes to implement sound decisions; something that cannot be matched by Nana Addo and his NPP hence their uncontrollable hatred of him. Koku, let's wait till,Dec 7 2020.
Who cares about the NDC uugly and usel3ss nois3. They can shout till they lose their voices, Ghanaians are not going to listen to their uuugly noises. Empty barrels make the most nois3. We all saw them when they were in power, not a single social intervention policy.
