Actor Prince David Osei is at the receiving end of criticisms from social media users after threatening to demonstrate against the NPP-led administration.
His critics are upset because at the peak of the #FixTheCountry demonstrations, the actor had described the youths as ‘greedy’ and advised them to fix themselves first.
“Just maybe if we fix ourselves first, then we can fix our country, we’re all full of hate, greed, selfishness and nonchalant attitude. God help [Ghana] #FixYourSelf”, the actor tweeted in 2021.
However, in his new post, Prince David Osei told government that, the current economic situation was “unacceptable “ and should things remain the same, he would lead the youth to demonstrate in December, 2022.
“Mr President! with all due respect Mr President, why are you sleeping on Ghanaians? This is not acceptable, Mr President. We deserve better. We know there are global crises and hardships. Yes, we know! But, looks like you and your ministers are determined to inflict untoward hardship on the citizenry.”
He continued to say that he regrets supporting the current government during the elections and described his decision as ‘wrong’ at the time.
”I decided to give you and your government the benefit of the doubt, I reckon I was wrong? The youth of this nation are not smiling, it pours, but we are still sweating”, he said on his social media account.
“ If things don’t change by December, we will mobilize the youth of party affiliations whether NPP, NDC, CQQ, PNC. Whatever doesn’t matter now, we want to see improvement in our livelihoods. If you have to sack some people do it without fear or favor because your legacy is on the line, Sir!!”
In reaction to the actor’s U-turn regarding the state of affairs, some social media users expressed dissatisfaction in him.
Prince David Osei called Ghanaians lazy and selfish at the time when the ordinary Ghanaian was asking gov't to fix the country.
Fast forward to 2022, as he dey feel the heat now, he wants to mobilize boys and demonstrate against a party/gov't he campaigned for. 😅
