Alexander Adu Gyamfi, the man who described President Mills as a “Chimpanzee” during a panel discussion on Fox Fm, a Kumasi-based private radio station, has been explaining the genesis of his unsavoury name-calling of the President, and claims an abusive comment passed by the NDC representative on the programme, regarding the facial features of Nana Akufo-Addo, opened the flood-gates for him to label the President as such.
According to Alexander Adu Gyamfi, popularly known as “High Priest”, who spoke to PeaceFM News in an interview on Tuesday afternooon, the NDC representative used unpleasant and unhealthy words to describe the former 2008 NPP Presidential Candidate, Nana Akufo-Addo.
He told Peace Fm that in the course of the discussion on a fake poster of the NPP Presidential aspirant which emerged in Kumasi over the weekend, the NDC activist likened Nana Addo to all sorts of animals and horrible creatures, which incensed him to also use equally abusive language in describing the first gentleman of the land.
“He (Nana Addo) looks like a frog, he is an ugly mammoth, those were the exact words used by the NDC activist to describe Nana Addo," the High Priest said.
But Adu Gyamfi told PeaceFM he countered that if the criteria for the selection of a Presidential candidate were to be based on one's facial features then that was exactly how he would describe President Mills, since Nana Addo will win that Presidential contest.
“To me he (President Mills) looks like a ‘chimpanzee’… I tell you, when I look at Atta Mills, he looks like a ‘chimpanzee’”, he reportedly said amidst vain protestations by the host and other panel members for him to retract his comments.
The Buffalo Unit of the Police Service in Kumasi picked up Adu Gyamfi for allegedly passing abusive and derogatory remarks directed at His Excellency, President John Evans Atta Mills.
He was whisked away as attempts was made by irate National Democratic Congress (NDC) youth who thronged the premises of Fox Fm to forcibly make him eat back his words.
