Ghana: Senior official wears wife's coat on state visitNews from Elsewhere...

Mr Nketia alongside other officials in a receiving line in Germany Mr Nketia (right) was mocked for wearing the fur-trimmed winter coat


A senior official in Ghana's ruling party has laughed off criticism for wearing his wife's coat during an official visit to Germany, it's reported.

Johnson Asiedu Nketia, general secretary of the National Democratic Congress, was snapped wearing a camel-coloured, fur-trimmed number on the trip, and was promptly ridiculed by fellow politicians and social media users, the Graphic website reports. Mr Nketia says nobody in Germany mentioned his choice of attire, but it was a different story back home in Ghana, where one opposition politician seized on the fashion choice as evidence of a "totally confused" administration.

Mr Nketia has met the mockery with good humour, and says he isn't bothered by the fuss. "When we embark on a state visit... we are going to use our brains to help the country, not to showcase our attire at fashion show," he said in a radio interview, adding that he didn't see the point in buying a new coat for such a fleeting visit. And it seems there is an upside to being ridiculed for your fashion choices. In an interview published on the Ghana Vibes website Mr Nketia says: "I can hit my chest and say that I'm the only political party executive to chart a new fashion trend."

spott:
he should be very careful there oooo. The people will not be smiling at all but what can you say when he has failed them/us massively.
They want/we change. #saiBuhari

stop misrepresenting the good, majestic people of Kanem-Borno.
do you think they like shettimma and buhari who brought the scourge of boko haram on them?
Borno people are tired of the roguish behavior of Shettima who arranged the kidnap of the Chibok girls!

ayampissed:
OP, Una no dey tire

na wah for una ooo! chaiii!!!

Tufiakwa!

buhari is tired.
he saw his failure in a dream
and decided to quietly step down.

dealslip:
Wow! Borno state, lets pray he makes it out alive of that place. The Governor did the right thing sha

why are you threatening and trying to intimidate the president and commander-in-chief?
or is President Jonathan not the sponsor of boko haram again?
you guys are just pitiful.

el rufia will be a better choice.
or atiku.

apc too like cheating.
thanks Allah that injustice salami has been dismissed.

apc are known for violence.

barcanista:
If only the PDP-led FG had provided jobs ...

you see yarsef?
how many jobs did tinubu and fashola provided?
this is the problem with Nigeria.
Everyboy seats on their hands waiting for President Jonathan to do all the work.

Repent.

The name is for the town Katsina. Katsina town has been in existence for hundreds of years.

what do you need dollar for?
even if dollar is 1000 naira, i dont care.
use local products.
stop all this longer throat for foreign made products.

APC --- Lies
APC --- Lies
APPCCC ---- Lieeezzzzz

apc just makes people start telling lies
and worst of all,
they believe the lies they tell.

OP, i was thinking the same thing about three days ago (i was banned by a murderator then) but i did not get to convey my thoughts.
The buhari school certificate saga will keep running: from affidavit to military board to i ran in 20003 to ....

gambit10:
The only ace the PDP were hanging onto is the certificate ish....if buhari can lay his hands on it, then February's election is no longer a contest but a walk-over ...I don't even need his certificate, can't vote a dum-dum for the 2nd time...I'm not crazy

See you.
I have been doing neighbor=to=neighbor campaign for GEJ for the past two weeks.
I have alrady delivered the two streets around my street and I am still working tirelessly to get 1 million votes for GEJ!

PhockPhockMan:
1) Is it true that Buhari fraudulently joined Nigeria Army?
2) If no, then, did Buhari's entry satisfied every legal requirements?
3) Is it reasonable to say that all Buhari has achieved in life rest on top of mere "RECOMMENDATION LETTER" by a secondary school principal?
Nigerians are waiting for credible answer.

these are easy questions Liar Mohammed can answer.

why will north people riot when they are going to vote for President Jonathan?
any riot will be caused by a few disgruntled citizens.

i am not talking again.

@ Topic

I don flog one big yansch Somali Gurl for Germany here. And one was checking me out before I left my area so why e hard 4 America na? But the bad part of this gurl was her lie, she told me she was a virgin although I don't even like virgin but after flogging kpekus, I was like: Gurl did you said you were virgin? and do I just disvirgin you now because I don't think you were? This gurl got mad and delected my number, after some weeks, I told her, I was just teasing her that she is truly a virgin, so that I can get the kpekus again, I was allowed to get the kpekus 2 times more. ..hahahhaha What a bit.ch

mumu

you are the definition of mediocrity.

You people are making mouth again?

O ti la go!

If the two guys on the ballot are no longer in office, the constitution stipulates a fresh election.
Correct me if am right.

if buhari/osundada win the election (Allah forbid)
and then osinbade resign for tinubu to be vp,
then if buhari is incapaciated and tinubu becomes president,
he cannot complete the tenure of buhari/oshunbanjo.
there must be fresh elections.

Do you remeber pictures of when Aregbesola and Omisore went to beg church people for vote?
they did not even kneel down.

i can draw a bigger crowd that this naw.
this rufai is a joker.

they should arrest Chidi Lloyd immediately.
this bears his signature.
the man was captured on video bursting heads like this.

If buhari spent $1B on arms and ammunition in 1984?
why did he cancel the $18m Lagos metroline project?
I wish he had spent $1B on power generating plants in 1984.
We for no dey cry about NEPA now.

thaoriginator:
