I have noticed with worrying consent how a news item carrying
information claiming I endorsed President John Mahama for the 2012
elections which is causing serious havoc to my personality.
I was recommend as an m.c for the launch of VFM (Volunteers For
Mahama) due to my expertise in manning events with humorous antics of
which I delivered to satisfaction. I would not run away from those
comments I made, I totally own up to them. However I need to clear the
air on this issue; I was an m.c not a volunteer, As an m.c I must endeavour to not only inform the audience but
entertain them as well since the event was intertwined with musical
performances hence I did politically related jokes with ONLY the purpose
of entertaining the audience and nothing more but to my surprise the
joke was taken out of context and it metamorphosized into highly
politically motivated sentiments, which I deem too far fetched since its
purpose was misconstrued.
I am only an entertainer and have no affiliation with any political
party in other words I was on the podium doing my job. I don’t have my
name in any political party’s record as a member, affiliate,endorser,
sympathizer etc therefore my utterances carry no political weight.
Furthermore you would realise I gave frivolous reasons why I would
rather John Mahama because he uses an i pads and blackberry therefore he
is as youthful as I am and also juxstaposing my violence scandal
against the “all die be die” mantra etc all these I said with no touched
of seriousness but only to evoke laughter, frankly blackberries,ipad
and mantras are not good enough reasons why I would endorse a political
party. I respect everyone’s affinity for their respective political
parties and I would never say anything to deliberately provoke or
disrespect them its rather unfortunate my purpose for the comments was
overstretched
